Chief Manufacturing, producer of projector, monitor, and flat-panel TV mounting solutions, is now shipping a new line of power management products.
Chief now offers power conditioning and surge protection built into accessories used for installing projectors and flat-panels. Company officials said the design integrates power conditioning with the outlet for improved audio and video performance and integration with an installation. The company also preassembles the outlet and electrical box to ensure protection for all connected AV equipment.
A variety of Chief products now include a Power Outlet Conditioner, including the CMS440P Suspended Ceiling Kit, the CMS445P Suspended Ceiling Tile Replacement Kit, and the PAC521P In-Wall Box for flat-panel TV wall-mount applications. The ceiling kit and in-wall box accessories replace the need for an outlet while providing AC cleaning, says the company.
Chief also offers the power conditioning as a separate SKU, the PX2W Power Outlet Conditioner. The PX2W can be ordered separately and used with existing CMS440 and CMS445 installations, or installed in the wall like a standard electrical outlet.
The company plans to add a new power accessory to the lineup in March 2009. The In-Wall Power Extension System for flat-panel TV installations installs behind the flat-panel and connects remotely to an outlet or power conditioner.
