Merit M-8S Power Sequencer is the perfect low-cost AC power solution for any rack mount system where power sequencing is desired.

Install an M-8s in to the top slot of your rack, and the six delayed outlets in the rear panel will power up sequentially and protect all your equipment up to a 15-amp load.

Includes 3 delayed outlet banks – each with 2 outlets – plus 2 unswitched outlets.
