PS-8R SERIES II- 15
amp
The latest generation of Furmans legendary power conditioner
/ sequencer, featuring Furmans exclusive Series Multi-Stage
Protection Plus (SMP+) with Linear Filtering Technology
(LiFT).
The most widely recognized and trusted name in AC power
conditioning is proud to introduce the PS-8R II power conditioner
/ sequencer, featuring Furmans revolutionary SMP+
technology. Furmans Series Multi-Stage Protection Plus
(SMP+) circuit also features our exclusive Linear Filter
Technology (LiFT) with Extreme Voltage Shutdown (EVS) and a high
current TVZ-MOV. Together, these technologies comprise what is,
without question, the worlds most advanced and comprehensive
transient voltage surge suppressor
SMP+ (Series Multi-stage
Protection Plus)
Furmans SMP+ surge suppression virtually eliminates
service calls. Traditional surge suppression circuits are
designed to just "sacrifice" themselves when exposed
to multiple transient voltage spikes, requiring the dismantling
of your system, and repair of your surge suppressor. With
Furmans SMP+, however, damaging transient voltages are
safely absorbed, clamped and dissipated. No sacrificed parts, no
service calls, no down time.
Unique to Furmans SMP+ is its unparalleled clamping voltage.
While other designs offer clamping voltages that are well above
300Vpk, Furmans SMP+ clamps at 188Vpk, 133 VAC RMS even when
tested with multiple 6000Vpk - 3000 amp surges! This
unprecedented level of protection is only available with
Furmans SMP+ technology. Additionally, Furmans trusted
over-voltage circuitry protects against all too frequent
accidental connections to 208 or 240VAC, by shutting off the
incoming power until the over voltage condition is corrected.
LiFT (Linear Filtering Technology)
Unfortunately, traditional AC fi lter - Conditioners
have been designed for unrealistic laboratory conditions. Prior
technologies could actually harm audio and video performance more
than they help, due to the resonant peaking of their antiquated,
non-linear designs. Under certain conditions, these designs can
actually add more than 10 dB of noise to the incoming AC line!
Worse still, lost digital data, the need to re-boot digital
pre-sets, or destroyed digital converters are frequently caused
by excessive voltage spikes and AC noise contaminating the
equipment ground. Furmans SMP+ with LiFT takes another
approach, ensuring optimal performance through linear fi ltering
and no leakage to ground.
FEATURES
The PS-8R II Power Conditioner/Sequencers is capable of powering
up a rack full of equipment in a 3-step delayed sequence. The
sequence is reversed for power-down. The sequence can be
initiated with either momentary or maintained switches, locally
or remotely. A duplex outlet is provided for each delay step. One
or more Furman PS-8R IIs may be installed in remote
locations and operated via low-voltage wiring. The PS-8R II
includes a rear mounted BNC jack which accepts any standard
(12VAC, 0.5A) gooseneck lamp for rear rack illumination, as well
as a front panel switch which controls the goosenecks
operation
OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES
GN-I or GN-LED: These gooseneck lights (either incandescent or
LED) are the perfect accessory to any Series II unit. They plug
into the BNC jack on the rear panel to conveniently illuminate
the rear of your rack. These versatile lights can also be used
with a variety of other products in other applications.
PS-REL Relay: Allows a PS-8R II to be turned on by sensing AC at
a preamps switched outlet; also allows daisy-chaining for 6
or more delayed outlet groups.
