Furman Merit Z-Series M-10z E 10A Power Conditioner

The Furman Merit Z-Series M-10z E is a next-generation 10A rackmount power conditioner engineered to safeguard equipment from mains spikes, electrical noise, and hazardous voltage fluctuations. Combining Furman’s active Extreme Voltage Shutdown (EVS) technology with linear RFI/EMI noise filtration, the M-10z E delivers clean, stable AC power while introducing modern studio conveniences like front-panel USB-C and USB-A fast charging.

Key Features

• Active EVS Voltage Shutdown: Automatically cuts power to connected gear during dangerous under-voltage ($<180\text{ VAC}$) or over-voltage ($>274\text{ VAC}$) conditions.

• RFI/EMI Noise Attenuation: Delivers over $20\text{ dB}$ of AC line noise filtering ($200\text{ kHz}-10\text{ MHz}$) to eliminate ground hum and hash.

• Front-Panel Fast Charging: Features dedicated USB-C ($5\text{V}/3\text{A}$) and USB-A ($5\text{V}/2.4\text{A}$) power ports for control tablets, mobile devices, and wireless receivers.

• High Peak Impulse Current Rating: Rated for up to $6,500\text{ A}$ peak surge impulse protection with $230\text{ Joules}$ of energy dissipation.

• Wall-Wart Spaced Outlets: Rear-panel IEC outlets are intentionally spaced to accommodate bulky external power transformers without blocking adjacent sockets.

• Front-Panel LED Diagnostics: Instant status LEDs for Protection OK, EVS Activation, and Circuit Breaker reset.

• Rugged 1U Steel Enclosure: Compact $19"\text{ 1U}$ rackmount chassis designed for touring racks and studio installations.
