PowerStation is a 7-outlet power
distribution device for advanced audio and video electronic components. The outlets are custom
upgraded in our lab, to comply with voltage and current requirements of our
circuits. The unit is based on an ultra-low
leakage 30A power line filter against EMI/RFI, able to support the highest current
professional electronics. The unit contains a high efficiency isolation circuit with toroidal transformers of either 400W or 600W (depending
upon the version).
PowerStation uses a
high current DC blocking stage and an ultra low resistance virtual grounding circuit, that
protects connected devices by unwanted DC leakage and eliminates (when
connected to properly grounded power cables) all
grounding problems of any recording studio setup.
The internal wiring
of PowerStation is based on our 7N copper conductors used on Signal Projects
power cables. The circuit boards of the unit and the hard wiring sections, are both covered by an increased density epoxy
resin formula, for effective insulation, better damping and maximum safety.
The chassis of PowerStation is
made of solid block Acetal and is engineered in some of the most accurate CNC
machines of today, in Signal Projects factory. The topology and the placement
of internal components, is designed and calculated
by a custom-made software, aiming to provide excellent insulation,
efficient
shielding and maximum protection against magnetically coupled and all
kinds of
external emitted interference. Finally, for the elimination of unwanted
resonances that interfere within audible frequencies, either during
reproduction or recording, we have developed a NUDEC Polycarbon
base/cover, that improves damping and provides excellent support to the
chassis of PowerStation.
