Today’s overworked, outdated power grid delivers poor quality AC power.
When connecting sensitive equipment to regular power outlets, AC noise
masks and distorts critical signal information which cripples
performance. This is why it’s more important that ever to purify or
clean the AC powering your sensitive audio/video equipment.
The PST-8 D all feature Furman’s SMP circuit which incorporates Linear
Filtering Technology (LiFT) and a high current TVZ-MOV to insure that
any electronic device (including televisions, projectors, CD-DVD
players, or computers) is fed clean, filtered AC power. This
dramatically reduces noise, ensuring consistent peak performance from
your equipment.
Typical AC filters feature antiquated non-linear circuits. Though these
multiple stage filters or power cleaners reduce some noise, they do so
unevenly. In fact, they can add noise to your power line due to their
filter’s excessive resonant peaking. With Furman’s proprietary Linear
Filtering Technology (LiFT), AC noise is suppressed evenly, assuring
maximum performance from your system.
Additionally, today’s power grid commonly experiences numerous
electrical surges and spikes on a daily basis. At best, these
irregularities can degrade your equipment’s performance, and, at worst,
can severely damage your entire system. Furman’s SMP circuit offers the
highest degree of protection available without sacrificing itself or any
of its components.
Conventional AC conditioners employing older technologies leak voltage
to circuit ground which can, in fact, aid in damaging sensitive digital
circuits such as computer processors. Furman’s new technology, however,
never directs voltage to the circuit ground further ensuring the safety
of your equipment.
Another feature that is unique to Furman’s SMP circuit is automatic
extreme-voltage shutdown. Extreme voltages are statistically the most
common, damaging AC event. The Extreme Voltage Shutdown circuit
automatically turns off the unit when it is fed 137 volts or higher
protecting itself and connected equipment from the extreme voltage. Only
Furman offers this degree of protection! Add telco and cable /satellite
transient voltage suppression, and you have what is, unquestionably,
the most comprehensive protection available in a portable AC power
conditioner.
