About the Furman PL-Plus Power Conditioner
The Furman PL-Plus is an advanced power conditioning and distribution unit designed to protect sensitive audio, video, and digital equipment from power line disturbances while delivering clean, stable AC power. This model represents an evolution within Furman's renowned line of power conditioners, incorporating enhanced filtration technology and protection circuits to combat a wider spectrum of noise and transient threats. It is engineered for professional studios, high-end home theaters, and critical listening environments where maintaining signal integrity and safeguarding expensive electronics are paramount. The PL-Plus goes beyond basic surge protection by actively filtering out electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio-frequency interference (RFI) that can degrade audio clarity, introduce video artifacts, and cause digital errors.
The unit employs Furman's proprietary noise filtration technology, which typically includes multi-stage toroidal filters to attenuate both common-mode and transverse-mode noise across a broad frequency range. It integrates high-speed surge suppression circuitry to guard against damaging voltage spikes from lightning or grid switching. A front-panel digital voltmeter provides precise real-time monitoring of the incoming AC line voltage, helping users identify potential brownout or overvoltage conditions before they affect connected gear. The PL-Plus offers multiple protected and filtered outlets, often with some switched and unswitched banks for operational flexibility.
Housed in a standard 1U rack-mountable steel chassis, the PL-Plus is built for durability and reliability in both permanent and mobile installations. By providing superior line conditioning and robust protection, it helps preserve the dynamic range and fidelity of audio systems, ensures the integrity of video signals, and extends the lifespan of connected electronics, establishing itself as a foundational component for any high-performance system where power quality is critical.
