The RPS14

The slimline RPS14 power supply unit is a high performance, low noise linear power supply producing DC voltages by rectifying, smoothing and regulating AC voltages from the secondary windings of a mains transformer.

Allen & Heath mixing consoles employ a number of DC voltage supply levels in their operation and these are provided at the output of the power supply unit. The RPS14 has a built in combiner for connection to a second supply for backup. Full protection and thermal sensing fan cooling ensures the power supply unit will operate consistently.
