The High Efficiency Switch-Mode Power Supply with Power Factor Control meets all the international requirements for mains network disturbances.

Surge and Lightning Protections (optional)

Surge and lightning protections for the amplifiers are available as option to improve the durability of the equipment. Moreover, an isolation transformer can be optionally installed to increase the protection of the unit from overvoltage or spikes coming from the mains distribution.

AAD Technology

Prevents corrosion from air moisture and increases reliability.

Mechanical components are made in stainless steel or anticorodal aluminum.

Air is properly ducted to avoid contact with electronic parts.

All electronic boards and cablings are tropicalized with a special resin to strongly protect all circuits against salty and/or corrosive air.

Meets or exceeds all international standards for safety and electrical specifications.
