PRODUCT SPECIFICATIONS
The MIW-SURGE is designed essentially for compatibility with three basic configurations:
PFPower warrants to the purchaser of any
PFPower In-Wall surge protector, for a pe-
riod of 3 years from its installation date,
that the surge protector shall be free of
defects in design, material, or workman-
ship, and PFPower will repair or replace
any defective unit. For product replace-
ment see “NOTIFICATION” below.
CAUTION:
Audio/Video, computer and/
or telephone system installations can be
very complex systems, which consist of
many interconnected components. Due
to the nature of electricity and surges, a
single protector may not be able to com-
pletely protect complex installations.
In
those cases, a systematic approach using
multiple protectors must be employed.
Systematic protection requires profes-
sional design.
AC power, satellite cables,
CATV cables, or telephone/network lines
entering the system that do not pass
through this surge protector will provide
pathways for potential surge damage.
For
additional information on how to protect
your system, please contact PFPower
before connecting your equipment to the
surge protector. More detailed informa-
tion is available at www.panamax.com or
www.furmansound.com. If you have any
questions regarding these requirements,
please contact PFPower Customer Rela-
tions.
1. PROPER
INSTALLATION:
PFPower
In-Wall AC and Signal-line protectors are
designed to provide code-compliant (NEC
or CEC) installations.
Separate signal-line
protection modules must be used with the
appropriate AC base unit to provide proper
grounding.
Building wiring and other con-
nections to protected equipment must
conform to applicable codes (NEC or CEC).
No other ground wires or ground connec-
tions may be used.
All wires (including,
AC power lines, telephone lines, signal/
data lines, coaxial cable, antenna lead-
ins) leading into the protected equipment
must first pass through a single PFPower
protector designed for the particular ap-
plication.
The protector and the equip-
ment to be protected must be indoors in
a dry location, and in the same building.
PFPower installation instructions and dia-
grams must be followed.
2. NOTIFICATION:
You must obtain a re-
turn authorization (RA) number from the
PFPower Customer Relations Department
at www.panamax.com or www.furman-
sound.com or toll-free at 1-800-472-
5555 before returning the protector to
PFPower. Once you obtain an RA number,
please mark the number on the bottom of
the unit and pack it in a shipping carton/
box with enough packing material to pro-
tect it during transit.
The RA number must
be clearly marked on the outside of the
carton. Ship the unit to PFPower.
Please
note that you are responsible for any and
all charges related to shipping the unit to
PFPower.
3. DETERMINATION OF FAILURE:
PFPower will evaluate the protector for
defects.
Opening the enclosure, tamper-
ing with, or modifying the unit in any way
shall be grounds for an automatic denial
of your request for replacement. PFPower,
after evaluating the unit, shall in its sole
discretion, determine whether or not your
protector is eligible for replacement. If the
surge protector shows no defects, PF-
Power will return the unit to you with a let-
ter explaining the test results. Exception: If
a dealer or installer replaces the protector
for the customer, the unit will be returned
to the dealer or installer.
4. GENERAL:
If you have any questions
regarding the product warranty, please
contact the Customer Relations Depart-
ment at www.panamax.com or www.
furmansound.com or toll-free at 1-800-
472-5555.
This warranty supersedes
all previous warranties. This is the only
warranty provided with the protector and
any other implied or expressed warranties
are non-existent. This warranty may not
be modified except in writing, signed by
an officer of PFPower.Forms are available
on the Panamax or Furman web sites for
requesting RA’s.
