Summary

Important Safety Instructions

Read and Observe Instructions

Read and observe all safety and operating instructions before operating the AR-1215 or AR-2306.

Water Proximity Warning

Do not use the AR-1215 or AR-2306 near water, such as bathtubs, sinks, or swimming pools.

Heat Source Warning

Avoid placing the AR-1215 or AR-2306 near heat sources like radiators or stoves.

Cable Routing

Route power and other cables to prevent tripping hazards.

Definitions

Voltage Regulation Explained

Defines AC line voltage and how a regulator corrects deviations by stepping voltage up or down.

Understanding Power Spikes

Describes power line spikes, their high voltages, and potential to damage sensitive electronic components.

RFI/EMI Interference

Explains RFI/EMI noise, its lower voltage/energy, and effects on audio, video, and computer systems.

Extreme Voltage Protection

Over/Undervoltage Shutdown

Circuitry senses over/undervoltages and shuts down output to prevent damage.

Internal Fuse Protection

High voltages over approx. 300V blow an internal fuse, protecting equipment.

Fuses and Circuit Breakers

Rear Panel Circuit Breaker

A 15A [6A] breaker trips if capacity is exceeded, accessible at the rear panel.

Internal Fuse

A 1/4 amp fuse protects against voltages above the Extreme Voltage Shutdown range.

Input Voltage Monitoring

LED Input Voltage Meter

Ten LEDs on the front panel indicate input voltage levels, with red LEDs for out-of-range conditions.

Output Voltage Monitoring

Output In Regulation Indicator

A green LED indicates the output voltage is within ±5V [±10V] of the selected output voltage.

Installation Guidelines

Rack Mounting Considerations

Suggests top or bottom rack locations; use 10-32 screws and plastic washers for mounting.

Design Features

Toroidal Autoformer Design

Assures minimal magnetic field leakage, high efficiency, and compact size for its rating.

Zero-Crossing Tap Switching

Electronically switches taps at zero-crossing to avoid distorting the AC waveform.

Specifications Overview

Output Current Ratings

Details current ratings for AR-1215 (15A) and AR-2306 (6A) with derating information.

In-Regulation Voltage Ranges

Specifies the input voltage ranges for ±5V (AR-1215) and ±10V (AR-2306) regulation.

Shutdown Voltage Thresholds

Defines the voltage limits for AR-1215, AR-1215J, and AR-2306 that trigger shutdown.

Voltmeter Accuracy

States the accuracy of the input voltage voltmeter for different models.

Spike Protection Details

Covers spike clamping voltage, response time, and maximum surge current.

Noise Attenuation

Specifies noise attenuation levels for transverse and common modes.

Unit Dimensions and Weight

Provides the physical dimensions (HxWxD) and weight of the unit.
