Furman F1000-UPS Unintrerrupyible Power Supply Voltage Regulator/Power Conditioner
FURMAN U.S. AUTHORIZED DEALER
Furman proudly introduces the F1000-UPS: battery backup designed
exclusively for audio/video professionals and home theater aficionados.
For decades, traditional audio/video components were simple analog
devices designed to easily weather power outages of well over two
seconds. Later, as computer and microprocessor based components gained
in popularity, their extraordinary sensitivity to even a fraction of a
second’s power loss was managed with traditional UPS (uninterruptible
power supply) technology.
Unfortunately, these units were solely designed for the I.T.
professional. Though they included many technologies and features
appropriate to that application, they fell short for premium audio/video
components. Though many of these manufactures later recognized the
ever-emerging professional audio/video, broadcast, and home theater
market, their lack of experience led merely to a re-tooled chassis.
These hastily produced UPS devices lacked the technologies necessary to
truly optimize protection, performance, and control for today’s audio
video components.
The Furman F1000-UPS more than fills this void, and offers your
system unparalleled battery back-up technology, created from the ground
up to meet the exacting demands of the world’s most sensitive audio,
video and control systems!
Protection
Typical UPS systems feature antiquated
surge suppression technologies that can cause as much damage and
annoying lock-ups as they attempt to prevent. Only Furman offers battery
back-up with our road-proven SMP non-sacrificial, zero ground
contamination surge suppression technology and EVS Extreme Voltage
Shutdown. After all, the most robust battery can not function if the
accompanying circuits are damaged. With Furman’s F1000-UPS, you can
expect years of trouble free operation.
Filtration
Though many control devices are
relatively immune to moderate levels of AC line noise, today’s more
sensitive devices (such as DLP projectors) certainly are not.
High-definition technologies have pushed resolution to levels so extreme
that virtually any AC noise capable of coupling with your system’s
signal will distort, mask, or destroy the performance advantages we all
strive so hard to capture and reproduce. Once again, the F1000-UPS is
different. While other UPS devices feature AC line filters suitable for a
I.T. closet, only Furman employs our exclusive Linear Filtering
Technology (LiFT). This advanced noise filtering technology assures that
today’s ultra-wide dynamic range is maintained as it must be –
pristine. Remember, less AC noise equals greater content, greater
resolution, and higher definition.
Programmability & Control
Audio/video systems
can vary greatly in their size and components, and as such, flexibility
is needed in determining how a battery backup solution should function
under different circumstances. Because of this, Furman has provided open
source RS-232 control over two independent AC outlet banks, with a wide
range of control features to interface with an existing automation
solution. Dual programmable IR control allows the unit to send a shut
down command to remote components – no more expensive projector bulbs to
replace in the event of a blackout.
Typical Backup Components
Given the nature of battery backup technology, high-current audio and
video components such as power amplifiers, powered subwoofers, and
high-wattage displays are not recommended for use with the F1000-UPS.
Not only will these components drain battery power quite rapidly, line
impedance will be raised due to the F1000-UPS’s (or any) AVR and AC to
DC inverter, which can induce current compression and noticeably
diminish performance with high-current A/V equipment.
