PureAV Isolator
Features
The PureAV Isolator comes with three Diagnostic Indicators, plus an Amber
Master Switch light. When you plug the unit into a live, 120V AC/60Hz
outlet, these lights let you know that protection is activated and warn of a
power problem before you connect your equipment.
Protection (Yellow)
indicates your surge protection is functioning properly.
Line OK (Green)
indicates line integrity.
Line Fault (Red)
indicates wall outlet in use has existing ground fault, or is
improperly wired.
Protection (Yellow): This light should come on when the unit’s power
switch is turned to the “ON” position. If this light goes out at any time, it
means that your surge protector has “sacrificed itself” to protect your
equipment and should be replaced. Please contact Belkin Corporation for a
free surge protector replacement.
Line OK (Green): This light should also come on when the power switch is
turned on. It shows that 120V AC power is present with no wiring faults
and it is safe to plug and use connected equipment.
Line Fault (Red): If on, this light indicates that a wiring fault has been
detected. This may be the result of a lack of grounding or reversed phases,
among other problems. A qualified electrician should be notified so that
the problem can be corrected before plugging in devices.
Master (Amber): This on/off switch provides a built-in, automatic
shutdown, 15-Amp circuit breaker. The light should come on when the unit
is plugged into a 120V AC/60Hz outlet and switched to the “ON” position.
Important: If the current draw exceeds 15 Amps for an elongated period of
time, the circuit breaker will shut down the surge protector power to
prevent damage. Allow a brief time for the Isolator to cool before resetting
the circuit breaker switch. (To reset, simply press the switch.)
Isolator Technology: As mentioned earlier, this design prevents devices
that are plugged into a given receptacle bank from transferring
contamination to a device plugged into another receptacle bank. Each pair
of receptacle banks is isolated from the other pairs within the PureAV
Isolator. (The 10-outlet PureAV Isolator has five pairs of PFT receptacle banks.)
The PureAV Isolator provides increasing levels of protection and filtration
from surges, spikes, lightning strikes, and EMI/RFI. When AC power travels
from the wall outlet and throughout each successive pair of receptacle
banks, each power filter or “graduating filtration” level increases the
isolation, filtration, and protection for your most sensitive devices. The
higher receptacle banks (farthest from the power switch) will provide a
greater amount of surge and line-noise protection than the first receptacle
bank or the bank labeled “High Current Filter”. The “High Current Filter” is
designed to deliver the maximum current with the minimal filtration
required by amplifiers and powered subwoofers.
