Description

Torus Power PIUs (Power Isolation Units) combine the best surge suppression with unique toroidal transformer technologies from PLITRON to provide the ultimate in AC power conditioning and protection for sensitive audio and video equipment applications.

Units are available in either single 120V input, or dual 120V (balanced) input.

Balanced input power from two standard 120V phases provides high input power and noise cancellation. Using balanced input power provides the benefits of symmetrical power without the requirement to use GFCI (ground-fault circuit interruption) outlets. GFCIs are prone to nuisance- trips. The toroidal isolation transformer steps-down the 240V input to 120V to power equipment. (Where 240V balanced input is unavailable, units may be configured for 208V operation.)

PIUs use ZeroSurge￿ patented series-mode surge removal filters to absorb dangerous voltage surges and safely dissipate them without using failure-prone MOVs (metal oxide varistors). Also, unlike MOV-based protection, voltage surges are not shunted to ground.

Isolation is combined with proven proprietary technologies from PLITRON in the over-sized toroidal transformer. NBT works as a low pass filter using the controlled leakage inductance and capacitances within the transformer to cancel common mode and differential mode noise. LoNo technology has been used for years by high-end audio companies who demand silent transformers. Imin technology reduces inrush currents. UST provides additional common mode filtering using a highly efficient faraday screen.

Low-impedance output with balanced high-power primary input provides the most unconstrained, yet protected, energy source available to your equipment.

Shipping Carton & Packing Material Placement & Ventilation

Please keep the original shipping box and all packing material. This will ensure the PIU is protected in future transport.

In the unlikely event you have a problem and must return it for service you must use the proper packing material.

Ship the PIU only in the original packing material, as the unit is not insurable by carriers otherwise.

Torus Power PIUs are extremely efficient devices, however, they are also very high-power devices, and must be adequately cooled.

PIUs have ventilation slots on the base, side panels and the cover. Maintain at least 1” distance from each of these surfaces to anything else. Should your installation conditions be constricted, additional forced air-cooling may be necessary.

Do not install the PIU directly above heat-generating equipment.

Maintain at least 6” behind the PIU for adequate wiring space.

A024-HCB-A1AB specifications

The Torus Power A024-HCB-A1AB is a high-performance power conditioner designed to enhance the audio and video performance of high-end home theater systems and professional audio installations. This product is distinguished by its innovative technology and exceptional build quality, making it a vital component for enthusiasts looking to improve their overall system performance.

One of the standout features of the A024-HCB-A1AB is its toroidal isolation transformer. This design optimizes the electrical environment by providing a clean power source, minimizing electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI). The toroidal transformer not only helps in reducing noise but also improves the dynamic range of audio and video signals, ensuring that users enjoy a more vivid and accurate representation of their media.

Another critical characteristic is its regenerative power technology. This feature allows the A024-HCB-A1AB to regenerate the AC power, ensuring a pure, stable voltage output regardless of fluctuations in the incoming power supply. As a result, devices connected to the conditioner experience fewer power variations, which can commonly cause audio dropouts or video artifacts.

The A024-HCB-A1AB is equipped with an advanced filtration system that features multiple stages of noise filtration. This multi-layered approach effectively eliminates both high-frequency and low-frequency noise, providing a cleaner power supply to all connected components. The conditioner also includes a high-current design, allowing it to handle power-hungry devices without degradation in performance.

User convenience is another strength of the Torus Power A024-HCB-A1AB, featuring a range of outlets that accommodate various equipment types, along with an easy-to-read LED status indicator. The solid construction ensures durability and longevity, while the sleek design fits seamlessly into any modern home or professional setting.

In summary, the Torus Power A024-HCB-A1AB is a premium power conditioning solution that combines advanced technologies with superior build quality. It not only enhances the performance of audio and video systems by providing clean, stable power but also ensures exceptional reliability and convenience. This makes it a must-have for audiophiles and home theater enthusiasts seeking to maximize their audio-visual experience.
