Art PS8-II 9-Outlet Power Sequencer - Manual (Page 4)

3
INTRODUCTION
The PS8-II provides controlled power sequencing to 8 rear AC outlets. Each output is delayed by a
fixed amount that is determined by the front panel Sequence Delay control. This allows you to control
the power up and down sequence in a system to minimize turn-on transients and the damage that
they may cause. Sequencing power on also smooths out inrush currents. Remote switching is also
provided for via a rear mounted Remote connector, handy when you want to keep noisy or hot
equipment in one room and control power remotely.
The PS8-II is also a full-featured power conditioner, with fast acting breaker, EMI and RFI filtering, as
well as surge and spike protection to protect your system. The PS8-II is designed to sequence and
protect a wide range of equipment from sensitive tube preamps to powered speakers, large displays,
or digital systems. Your equipment will sound and work better and live longer.
