AC-215 / AC-210 E AC Power Conditioner

Indicators

Extreme Voltage Shutdown Indicator

The AC Series SMP+ circuit senses voltages

that are high enough to cause damage to your

components, and shuts the power down before

damage can occur.

The Extreme Voltage Shutdown LED is normally off. If an input voltage in excess of 137VAC [270VAC for the AC-210 E or 260VAC for the AC-210 E UK] is sensed, either on initial power-up or during normal operation, the AC- 215 / AC-210 E will shut off power and this

indicator will light.

NOTE: If the mains power is above the high cutoff voltage and has caused the unit to remove power from its outlets, it cannot restore power without the operator manually turning the unit off, then on again. Avoid turning the unit back on, without fi rst checking the source of the problem, and perhaps changing the AC source.

Protection OK Indicator

Although the Furman SMP+ circuit assures protection from transient voltage spikes and surges, nature has a way of occasionally creating electrical forces that are beyond the capabilities of any TVSS device to absorb without some degree of damage. In the rare instance that this occurs, the green “Protection OK” LED indicator located on your front panel will turn off. If this happens, some level of protection from voltage surges will remain,

but the Furman’s clamping voltage rating will

be compromised. The unit must be returned

to Furman Sound, or an authorized Furman Service center for repair.

Troubleshooting

Symptom : No power to the AC outlets.

Possible Cause : Circuit breaker has tripped due to excessive load.

Action Needed : Unplug one piece of equipment from the AC-215 / AC-210 E, and push the re-set tab into the Circuit breaker bezel.

Symptom : No power to the AC outlets, even after the Circuit breaker has been re-set.

Possible Cause : Protection devices are damaged.
