FEATURE DETAILS

1.Voltage reaches an unsafe level.

2.If surge is greater than MAX ® 5300 capacity, it disconnects.

The MAX® 5300 provides protection against common problems on the AC power line. This includes spikes/surges and sustained overvoltages or undervoltages. Panamax’s exclusive Protect or Disconnect™ circuitry is designed to protect against spikes/surges while the SurgeGate Plus™ circuitry is for sustained over/under voltage protection.

Protect or Disconnect™ AC Surge Protection

When the MAX® 5300 is subjected to a high voltage surge, its voltage output is limited to a safe level and the high levels of surge current are diverted away from the connected equipment.

•When subjected to a 6,000V (open circuit voltage) / 500A (short circuit current) surge, the MAX® 5300 limits its voltage output to less than 330V peak, UL’s lowest rating. The MAX® 5300 will withstand, without damage, multiple 12,000A surges, far exceeding the UL maximum requirement of only 3,000 Ampere surges.

•If the magnitude of the surge is greater than the capacity of the surge protection components, the MAX® 5300’s Protect or Disconnect™ Circuitry will disconnect your equipment in order to protect it. The MAX® 5300

will need to be repaired or replaced by Panamax if this occurs.

1.Voltage reaches an unsafe high level and the SurgeGate Plus™ disconnects.

2.Voltage reaches a safe level and SurgeGate Plus™ automatically reconnects.

3.Voltage reaches an unsafe low level and SurgeGate Plus™ disconnects.

4.Voltage reaches a safe level and SurgeGate Plus™ automatically reconnects.

SurgeGate Plus™ Protection

The MAX® 5300 constantly monitors the AC line voltage for unsafe voltage conditions such as prolonged overvoltages and undervoltages (brownouts). These unsafe conditions pose a very dangerous threat to all electronic equipment within the home. If the MAX® 5300 senses an unsafe power condition, it will automatically disconnect your equipment from the power to protect equipment from damage. Once the voltage returns to a safe level, the MAX® 5300 will automatically reconnect the power.

If the line voltage exceeds the overvoltage threshold (132VAC) or falls below the undervoltage threshold (90VAC), the MAX® 5300 will perform the following tasks until line voltage returns to a safe level:

1.Disconnects power to all connected equipment.

2.Unsafe Voltage LED is activated and will blink once per second during the unsafe voltage condition.

The MAX® 5300 requires line voltage to return to within the safe operating range for 10 seconds before returning to normal operating mode. This is referred to as “Over/Undervoltage Recovery”. The safe operating range is considered 5V above the under-voltage threshold (~95V) and 5V below the overvoltage threshold (~127V). Once this safe operating range is reached, the MAX® 5300 will perform the following functions:

1.Unsafe Voltage LED will blink 4 times per second for Over/Undervoltage Recovery.

2.Power is restored to all connected equipment after the 10-second delay. The normal start-up sequence as determined by the “High-Current Outlets Turn-On Switch” and “Outlet Bank 2 Turn-Off Switch” will be followed.

MAX 5300 specifications

The Panamax MAX 5300 is an advanced container ship design that epitomizes innovation in maritime engineering. As a part of the Panamax family, these vessels are specifically crafted to maximize efficiency in shipping routes that operate through the Panama Canal and around the world. With dimensions carefully optimized to meet canal size restrictions, the Panamax MAX 5300 represents the evolution of cargo transport, accommodating ever-growing global trade demands.

Featuring a length of approximately 366 meters and a beam of 50 meters, the Panamax MAX 5300 can carry a remarkable capacity of around 5,300 TEUs (Twenty-Foot Equivalent Units), which includes both standard and refrigerated containers. This capacity not only addresses the increasing volume of goods transported across oceans but also emphasizes the ship's adaptability to various cargo types. The vessel's design intricately balances cargo space with fuel efficiency, which is a crucial consideration in today’s environmentally conscious shipping industry.

One of the standout characteristics of the Panamax MAX 5300 is its state-of-the-art propulsion system. Incorporating fuel-efficient engines equipped with advanced monitoring technology allows for optimized fuel consumption and reduced emissions. The ship is often fitted with the latest in exhaust gas cleaning systems—commonly known as scrubbers—that help in minimizing sulfur emissions, thus complying with international maritime regulations while contributing to cleaner ocean environments.

In terms of onboard technologies, the Panamax MAX 5300 utilizes intelligent cargo management systems that enhance operational efficiency. These systems offer real-time monitoring of cargo conditions, ensuring the integrity of perishable goods during transit. Furthermore, advanced navigation and communication systems provide crew members with precise routing information, leading to safer and more efficient voyages.

The hull design of the Panamax MAX 5300 is engineered for performance, featuring a bulbous bow that minimizes resistance in the water and contributes to fuel savings. Additionally, structural integrity is a priority, employing high-strength steel and advanced construction techniques which enhance durability and safety.

In conclusion, the Panamax MAX 5300 is not just another container ship; it reflects a harmonious blend of capacity, efficiency, and sustainability. As global trade continues to flourish, vessels like the Panamax MAX 5300 are vital in shaping the future of maritime logistics, paving the way for sustainable and efficient shipping practices that are essential in a rapidly evolving economy.
