| The MINIPORT-30 Power Relay is a 30 amp, contactor switched
120 VAC outlet, with a terminal strip that allows remote control
via safe, inexpensive, low voltage Class 2 wiring. The
MINIPORT-30 provides a twistlock inlet and outlet, and is housed
in a heavy duty steel, 8" x 8" x 4" junction
box.
This model includes an internal 12 VDC supply, and can be
controlled from a remote location by using the Furman PowerLink
Remote AC Power Sequence Controller, the ASD-120 Sequenced Power
Distro, or for simpler jobs, the Furman RS-1 or RS-2 Remote
System Control panels. The RS-1 provides a maintained key switch;
the RS-2 has a momentary switch.
Multiple MINIPORTs have their control wiring paralleled so
that all are controlled by a single switch closure, and may be
linked so that all turn on simultaneously or one by one, in a
delayed sequence. If delayed operation is chosen, the delay
interval between the turn-on of one MINIPORT and the next is
approximately 3 seconds. (Delayed turn-on is useful in avoiding
large inrush currents that can trip house circuit breakers, that
would otherwise occur if all amps were turned on simultaneously.)
Turn-off always occurs simultaneously.
All four sides of the enclosure have multiple knockouts to
accommodate every installation, with 3/4" conduit- one on
the top surface, the other on the bottom. According to the
National Electrical Code, 3/4" conduit can accommodate up to
eight 20 amp circuits using sixteen THWN 12 gauge stranded wires;
however, local codes should be checked for exact
requirements.
With the addition of a Furman PS-REL AC Relay to provide
control, a MINIPORT can be used to extend the capacity of any
other product that has a switched outlet, such as a receiver/amp
that is then controlled with a wireless remote. When used in this
manner, the MINIPORT is switched on or off when the outlet that
the PS-REL is plugged into goes on or off.
Three Year Limited Warranty
The Furman MP-30 is protected by a limited three-year warranty
covering defects in materials and workmanship. |
