PDLT Rack Light Series offers front and rear illumnination, polus 15-amp power

LAS VEGAS, NEVADA — Designed to provide security installers with a multi-functional solution for efficient rack illumination and power distribution, Middle Atlantic Products today introduced the new PDLT Rack Light Series: a rackmounted LED light that extends easily to provide operators with instant illumination on the front of their enclosures, and enables rear illumination for technicians as well. The UL listed PDLT Series Rack Light distributes 15-amp power throughout the rack and utilizes two-stage surge suppression to protect sensitive electronics, and smart technology to provide notification if the surge protection has been compromised.

Featuring 15-amp power distribution via eight circuit breaker protected rear outlets that are vertically oriented and spaced to accommodate plug-in power supplies, the PDLT Series also incorporates effective, two-stage spike and surge suppression along with a monitoring system that indicates the unit’s protection status. The system can locally indicate if surge protection is compromised via front panel indicators and, in the event that the system’s protection is compromised completely, the PDLT Series will provide remote notification to a customer supplied monitoring device. In addition, the unit’s clean ground surge suppression design will not pass noise contamination to ground.

“Our goal is always to provide the installer with intelligent solutions that protect the integrated system and make their jobs easier,” said Mark Tracy, Director of Marketing, Middle Atlantic Products. “In developing the PDLT Series, our mission was to create the best rack light available. The result is a multi-functional unit, combining front and rear illumination with protection, distribution, and smart notification – all in a single rackspace.”

The PDLT Series Rack Light features a retractable, spring-loaded dimmable LED light that slides out and retracts smoothly with a single touch. With an ultra compact design, the PDLT Series occupies only a single rackspace yet is deep enough to make access to rear outlets easy. Additional lighting for the rear of the enclosure is made possible with Middle Atlantic Products’ new LT-GN gooseneck LED lights, which can be quickly connected to the PDLT Series’ two rear ports.

Also available in the PDLT Rack Light Series is a Designer Inspired model for environments where aesthetics are paramount. Available in black or silver anodized finishes, the Designer Inspired PDLT Rack Light features a dimmable Middle Atlantic Products logo on the front.
