3 Introduction
Our Juicerack and JuiceBlock power supplies produce more current than any other 500 series
power unit on the market today. So you can be confident that any brand of 500 series module will be
powered correctly in your SM Pro Audio Juicerack / Juiceblock.
The power output (in milliamps) for each SM Pro Audio model is as follows:
Juicerack 1 = 600mA
Juicerack 3 & Juiceblock 3 = 320mA per module slot.
Juicerack 8 = 350mA per module slot.
The original API™ spec calls for an average of 130mA for each slot, but there are 500 series
modules from many manufacturers that require more power than that average. SM Pro Audio
ensures that you can easily power any 500 series module available today with our Juicerack and
Juiceblock power supplies.
3.1 Setup
SMPRO Audio JuiceRack and JuiceBlock power supplies feature all-metal construction and full

power supply with the provided allen key.
3.2 Mains Voltage
Juicerack 8 can be used with voltages ranging from 100V AC to 250V AC. Please make sure that
you have selected the correct voltage on the rear voltage switch before switching the unit ON. Any
damage occurring as a result of incorrect voltage selection may not be granted a warranty repair.
4 Module Installation
1.
Please ensure there is no power connected to your Juicerack / Juiceblock.
2. Insert your 500 series module into your Juice power supply slot and push in until you

3. Screw your 500 series module into the Juice power supply slot with the supplied screws.
