Clean power.


POWER CONDITIONER A power conditioner (also known as a line conditioner or power line conditioner) is a device intended to improve the “quality” of the power (see power quality) that is delivered to electrical load equipment.  delivers clean power to sensitive telecommunications equipment. The Power Guardian automatic voltage-regulating power conditioners protect equipment from the most common forms of power problems, including

voltage sags and surges. They utilize highly shielded isolation transformers that provide common-mode noise attenuation Loss of signal power in a transmission.
Attenuation

The reduction in level of a transmitted quantity as a function of a parameter, usually distance. It is applied mainly to acoustic or electromagnetic waves and is expressed as the ratio of power densities.
 of better than 150 dB, and neutral-ground bonding. Power Guardian provides premium power protection from 2 kVA single-phase to 225 kVA three-phase. Surge suppression The diverting and/or diminishing of excessive current and voltage from the AC power line, which can damage sensitive electronic equipment. Power surges generally last less than 50 microseconds, but can reach as much as 6,000 volts and draw 3,000 amps when they arrive at the equipment.  provides superior load protection from high-energy surges and lightning strikes, meeting ANSI/IEEE C62.41, and IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission, Geneva, Switzerland, www.iec.ch) An organization that sets international electrical and electronics standards founded in 1906. It is made up of national committees from over 60 countries.
