DENOISER SNR2000

1.2Before you begin

Your DENOISER was carefully packed in the factory and the packaging is designed to protect the unit from rough handling. Nevertheless, we recommend that you carefully examine the packaging and its contents for any signs of physical damage, which may have occurred during transit.

+If the unit is damaged, please do not return it to BEHRINGER, but notify your dealer and the shipping company immediately, otherwise claims for damage or replacement may not be granted. Shipping claims must be made by the consignee.

The BEHRINGER DENOISER fits into one standard 19" rack unit (1 3/4"). Please allow at least an additional 4" depth for the connectors on the back panel.

Be sure that there is enough space around the unit for cooling and please do not place the DENOISER on high temperature devices such as power amplifiers etc. to avoid overheating.

+Before you connect your DENOISER to the mains, please make sure that your local voltage matches the voltage required by the unit:

The fuse holder on the female mains connector has 3 triangular markings, with two of these triangles opposing each other. The DENOISER is set to the operating voltage printed next to these markers and can be set to another voltage by turning the fuse holder by 180°. CAUTION: This instruction does not apply to export models exclusively designed, e.g. for 115-V operation!

The mains connection of the DENOISER is made by using the enclosed mains cable and a standard IEC receptacle. It meets all of the international safety certification requirements.

+Please make sure that all units have a proper ground connection. For your own safety, never remove or disable the ground conductor of the unit or of the AC power cable.

As standard, the BEHRINGER DENOISER features electronically servo-balanced inputs and outputs. The circuit design features automatic hum rejection for balanced signals, permitting trouble-free operation even at highest operating levels. Externally induced power-line hum, etc. is thus suppressed effectively. The automatic servo function recognizes the presence of unbalanced connectors and adjusts the nominal level internally to avoid level differences between the input and output signals (6 dB correction).

You will find additional information in chapter 5 “INSTALLATION”.
