The PL-PROD features an advanced digital voltage
meter, while the PL-PRODM and PM-PRODM provide
a laboratory grade True RMS digital voltage and
current meter. Both meters are located at the center-
front panel of their respective units.
The front panel also provides a switched convenience outlet
(clean, filtered power is provided at this outlet as well).
A premium quality 20 amp magnetic circuit breaker
functions as the units ON/OFF switch, located on the
far right. To prevent accidental loss of AC power, this
circuit breaker switch has a polymer shield with a
“snap-in” hinged cover. Simply pull the cover out when
you wish to set the switch to the ON or OFF position.
The rear panel contains eight switched AC outlets to
power your equipment, (4 for analog equipment and
4 with additional filtering for digital – computer
components, see below). These AC outlets are
spaced to accommodate up to four plug-mounted
power supplies (“wall warts”).
Power is delivered to the unit by a heavy duty 12 AWG
AC cord, 10 feet (2.4 m) in length for extra reach and
durability on stages and other high-traffic areas.
Additionally, these units feature three status LED’s to
indicate abnormal power conditions. Under extreme
conditions, these units will even keep themselves from
turning on if the voltage is below 90VAC or above
140VAC. During operation, the unit will automatically
shut down if the voltage rises above 140 volts.

Retractable Rack Lights and Dimmer Control: The
PL-PROD and PL-PRODM utilize a dimmer control for
the two retractable front panel light tubes. These light
tubes automatically turn off when fully pushed into the
front panel (a feature exclusive to Furman). The
dimmer knob controls the brightness of both light
fixtures. Turn it clockwise to increase brightness; turn it
counterclockwise to decrease brightness.
Light Tubes and Bulb Replacement: The PL-PROD
and PL-PRODM feature the familiar slide-out rack
lights pioneered by Furman. These units’ lamps come
supplied with five-watt night light bulbs. Replacements
are available at most hardware stores or almost
anywhere household light bulbs are sold.

Bulbs are easily replaced without removing the unit
from the rack.
Here’s How: First, pull the light tube(s) all the way out.
Unscrew the cap on the end of each tube to get
access to the bulb. (Be careful not to push the tubes in
after you have removed the caps.) To unscrew the
