Isolation Power Conditioner Comparison for Space-Constrained Installations
The Xtreme Power JX-200 and the AMETEK Powervar ABC100-11 (120VA) from AMETEK are transformer-based isolation power conditioners designed to protect sensitive electronic equipment from electrical noise, spikes, and transients.
Both products provide galvanic isolation, surge suppression, and noise filtering for microprocessor-driven electronics. While the Powervar ABC100-11 is designed for lower-power applications up to 120 VA, the JX-200 supports higher usable capacity (200 VA) in a dramatically thinner 1.25-inch enclosure, with included mounting hardware and a longer standard warranty.
For installations where vertical clearance is limited—such as kiosks, POS systems, under-counter electronics, and embedded equipment—the JX-200 offers clear installation and lifecycle advantages.

Key Differentiators at a Glance
- Ultra-low-profile 1.25″ enclosure for tight vertical clearances
- Higher supported load (200 VA vs 120 VA)
- Toroidal isolation transformer for smaller size and lower weight
- Flexible mounting: wall, rack, counter, or under-counter
- Mounting hardware included as standard
- Longer standard warranty (5 years vs 3 years)
