ART ps8 pro Manual De Usuario
LCD
The LCD display on the front panel indicates current AC line voltage and the total load current that the PS8 PRO is supplying. It also indicates time of day (in 24
hour format) as set by the hour and minute switches. The clock draws power from an internal battery whenever power is not available.
MAXIMUM LOAD
The eight circuit breaker protected outlets are rated at 15 amps total, which is equivalent to 1800 watts at 120 volts. If the total load on the PS8 PRO exceeds 15
amps, the circuit breaker on the front panel will trip, cutting off power to all outlets. If this happens, reduce the overall load by unplugging one or more units from
the PS8, then push the circuit breaker button in to reset it.
ADVANCED POWER FILTERING
The PS8 PRO has specialized internal circuitry to filter out digital and dimmer hash as well as any high frequency noise that is above the audio range.
By using both Common Mode and Differential Mode topologies in series for the filter design we are able to block virtually all of the unwanted noise that is
between the AC line and ground, and also the two sides of the AC line. This has the additional benefit of reducing ground loop problems in your system.

High frequency noise currents in particular are highly attenuated in both directions so that any line noise that could be generated by one of your components is
not allowed to get back into your main AC wiring, so if you use a PS8 PRO in your setup, you can distribute and isolate the noisy components from the sensitive
components in your system. Additionally, any signals above 10kHz are filtered from the line with typically 40dB of attenuation above 100kHz.

The PS8 PRO also protects your delicate electronic equipment with high voltage varistor (MOV) surge and transient suppressors. The fast-acting suppression
circuit responds in less than a nanosecond, clamping transient voltages to safe levels.

SERVICE
The following information is provided in the unlikely event that your unit requires service.
1) Be sure that the unit is the cause of the problem. Check to make sure the unit has power, all cables are connected correctly, and the cables themselves are in
working condition. You may want to consult with your dealer for assistance in troubleshooting or testing your particular configuration.
2) If you believe the ART unit is at fault, go to
. You may contact Customer Service for more assistance, or directly request a Return
Authorization for service in the “resources” area of the website.
3) If you are returning the unit for service, pack the unit in its original carton or a reasonable substitute. The original packaging may not be suitable as a shipping
carton, so consider putting the packaged unit in another box for shipping. Print the RA number clearly on the outside of the shipping box.
4) Include, with your unit, a note with the RA number and your contact information including a daytime phone number, preferably attached to the top of the unit.
