AP-S20RT POWER DISTRIBUTION (PZA)
20A AC power distribution and AC surge suppressor with remote activation
The AP-S20RT features noise filtering for unwanted radio frequency interference (RFI) commonly introduced into AC lines by nearby radio transmitters or wireless products. EMI filters are incorporated to reduce noise and electromagnetic interference (EMI) from items such as electric motors and external switching power supplies. The benefit of these filters can be seen in video products or audibly by reducing static crackles and external signal interference.
Unstable AC mains voltage is one of the main reasons for equipment failure. The amount of energy that can be injected into the power system can be immense, with voltages reaching 6 kV or peak amperages of 3000 A. These spikes are very rapid and usually only last a very short period of time. The AP-S20RT's circuitry is very fast and can suppress unwanted energy in a nanosecond response and maintain suppression for up to 2 milliseconds, ensuring virtually trouble-free protection. If the suppression circuit is damaged, the AC Fail LED will illuminate.
The AP-S20RT incorporates EVS (Extreme Voltage Shutdown) to remove AC power from devices plugged into switched outlets in the event of unsafe high or low voltage conditions. A convenient LED on the front panel indicates if a shutdown has occurred.
The AP-S20RT also features a remote triggering function. This remote activation feature allows up to 20 A of clean electrical power to be turned on or off with a simple latched dry contact closure. With the remote activation switch closed, 12 V DC at 100 mA is available to power a remote status LED. An emergency power off, or EPD, function can also be created using the remote activation feature by simply holding the remote activation contact closed until a condition occurs that requires the system to be shut down. When the contacts open, it will remove power from the switched outlets to protect the equipment. A rear-mounted bypass switch disables remote activation should the need arise.
