Furman PS-8RE III 10A Power Conditioner and Sequencer
The Furman PS-8RE III 10A Power Conditioner and Sequencer has Series Multi-Stage Protection (SMP) for virtually maintenance free protection from surges and spikes – no sacrificed parts, no service calls, and no downtime
Features
- SMP Technology – Series Multi-Stage Protection (SMP) for virtually maintenance free protection from surges and spikes – no sacrificed parts, no service calls, and no downtime
- LiFT – Linear AC power filtering to ensure clean power for unequaled audio & video clarity
- Automatic Extreme Voltage Shutdown (E.V.S.) – Powers down equipment during a prolonged extreme over-voltage
- Sequenced and Switched Panel Outlets – Six sequenced rear panel outlets (in 3 groups), two switched rear panel outlets, and one front panel switched outlet
- Sequencing Control – Momentary and Maintained sequencing via rear panel terminal block or front panel switch
- Amp Rating – 10 Amp rating
New in PS-8RE III
- All settings and configuration available on rear panel
- External delay and remote interface configuration; no need to remove the top cover to adjust potentiometers or jumpers
- Lower profile depth; shorter depth chassis provides more flexibility with rack placement and cable management
- Improved “Start On/Off Sequence” rocker switch; tactile black switch replaces push-button
- Non-illuminated power on/off switch; matte black switch for discreet aesthetics
SMP (Series Multi-Stage Protection Plus)
SMP surge suppression virtually eliminates service calls.
Traditional surge suppression circuits sacrifice themselves when exposed to multiple transient voltage spikes, requiring the dismantling of your system, and repair of your surge suppressor. Not so with SMP.
With Furman SMP, damaging transient voltages are safely absorbed, clamped and dissipated – no sacrificed parts, no service calls, no down time. Unique to Furman SMP is its unparalleled clamping voltage, even when tested beyond the grueling specifications of – USA/CIDA’s A-1-1 test.
While other designs offer clamping voltages that are well above 300VAC peak (far beyond long accepted professional standards), Furman SMP clamps at 376VAC peak, 266 VAC RMS even when tested with multiple 6000VAC – 3000 Amp surges! This unprecedented level of protection is only available with Furman’s SMP technology.
LiFT (Linear Filtering Technology)
Unfortunately, traditional AC filter/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 reboot digital presets, or destroyed digital converters are frequently caused by excessive voltage spikes and AC noise contaminating the equipment ground.
Furman SMP with LiFT takes another approach, ensuring optimal performance through linear filtering and no leakage to ground.
E.V.S. (Extreme Voltage Shutdown)
Furman trusted overvoltage circuitry protects against all-too-frequent accidental connections to extreme voltage by shutting off the incoming power until the overvoltage condition is corrected.
Rear Panel BNC Connector
For rear panel illumination, a BNC connector is provided for connection of any standard gooseneck lamp, such as the Furman GN-LED or GN-I (sold separately).
Sequencing
The PS-8RE III 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 E II’s may be installed in remote locations and operated via low-voltage wiring.
