Premium-quality Protection for Your Electronic Gear
The Furman AR-20 Series II delivers a stable stream of AC power to protect equipment from problems caused by AC line voltage irregularities such as sags, brownouts, or over-voltages - all of which can cause sensitive electronic equipment to malfunction or sustain damage. Featuring a generous 20-amp capacity, the AR-20 Series II accepts any input voltage from 97V to 141V and transforms it to a constant 120V. Voltages beyond this range are also converted to usable levels, unless they are extremely far out of range, in which case the unit will automatically power down to prevent equipment damage.

Furman AR-20 Series II Voltage Regulator at a Glance:
  • Regulates, filters, and purifies AC power
  • Delivers stable voltage with precision
  • Regulated, spike-suppressed outlets
  • Employs Furman's Series Multi-stage Protection Plus
  • Linear Filtering Technology for noise-free AC
  • SMP clamps over-voltages without sacrificing itself
  • Extreme Voltage Shutdown powers down connected gear safely

Regulates, filters, and purifies AC power
The AR-20 Series II is the only 20-amp regulator that filters and purifies AC power, reducing line noise linearly and ensuring optimum performance. Your equipment will perform at optimum levels and will be fully protected from spikes and surges by Furman's exclusive SMP+ technology. This virtually maintenance-free surge suppression system incorporates Linear Filtering Technology (LiFT), Extreme Voltage Shutdown (E.V.S.), and high current TVZ MOVs to provide the highest level of power protection available - all without the need for servicing or replacement of the unit. Just install it in your rack and forget about it!

Delivers stable voltage with precision
The AR-20 Series II's circuitry monitors the incoming line voltage with each cycle, comparing it to an extremely precise voltage reference, accurate to ±0.15%. The design is not sensitive to small errors in line frequency, making it ideal for use with generators. If a voltage fluctuation requires that a different tap be selected, the new tap is switched electronically at the zero-crossing, to avoid distorting the AC waveform.

Regulated, spike-suppressed outlets
The AR-20 Series II has 12 outlets on the rear panel and two convenience outlets on the front panel. All outlets are regulated, spike-suppressed, and filtered against radio frequency and electromagnetic interference. The 12 rear outlets are divided into two separate banks with bi-directional filtering for either analog or digital components. There are no controls except for the on-off switch. A digital meter indicates input voltage, while another LED indicates "In Regulation" status (i.e., that the output voltage is within ±5V of 120V). The unit is housed in a compact, dual-space rackmount chassis.

Employs Furman's Series Multi-stage Protection Plus
SMP+ is Furman's proprietary surge suppression and noise filtration system. Designed over a period of two years by Furman's engineering team, SMP+ is composed of three separate and distinct technologies which work together in a precisely tuned circuit to filter or "clean" the incoming power and to protect connected equipment from potentially damaging AC events. These technologies are Linear Filtering, Series Multi-Stage Protection, and Extreme Voltage Shutdown.

Linear Filtering Technology for noise-free AC
Unfortunately, traditional AC filter conditioners have been designed for unrealistic laboratory conditions. Prior technologies could actually harm audio and video performance more than they help, due to the resonant peaking of their antiquated, non-linear designs. Under certain conditions, these designs can actually add more than 10dB of noise to the incoming AC line! Worse still, lost digital data, the need to re-boot digital presets, or destroyed digital converters are frequently caused by excessive voltage spikes and AC noise contaminating the equipment ground. Furman's LiFT takes another approach, ensuring optimal performance through linear filtering and no leakage to ground.

SMP clamps over-voltages without sacrificing itself
Traditional surge suppression relies on circuits that "sacrifice" themselves when exposed to multiple transient voltage spikes, requiring the dismantling of your system and repair of your surge suppressor. With Furman's SMP+, however, damaging transient voltages are safely absorbed, clamped and dissipated. No sacrificed parts, no service calls, no downtime. Also unique to Furman's SMP+ is its unparalleled clamping voltage. While other designs offer clamping voltages that are well above 300Vpk, Furman's SMP+ clamps at 188Vpk, 133 VAC RMS, even when tested with multiple 6000Vpk - 3000 amp surges! This unprecedented level of protection is only available with Furman's SMP+ technology.

Extreme Voltage Shutdown powers down connected gear safely
When voltage rises to extreme levels because of a lost neutral line or an accidental connection to 208 or 240 VAC, Furman's Extreme Voltage Shutdown kicks in, automatically powering down all equipment quickly and safely in order to prevent damage from occurring. An indicator LED will then illuminate, alerting you to the situation until the over voltage condition is corrected.


Furman AR-20 Series II Voltage Regulator Features:
  • Precise Voltage Regulation delivers a consistent, stable 120 Volts output to safely power connected equipment and optimize performance regardless of fluctuations in the input level
  • Series Multi-Stage Protection Plus (SMP+) for virtually maintenance free protection from surges and spikes. No sacrificed parts, no service calls, no downtime!
  • Furman's unequaled Linear Filtering Technology (LiFT) rids systems of AC line noise for consistent audio/video clarity
  • Automatic Extreme Voltage Shutdown (E.V.S.) powers down equipment during a prolonged or extreme over-voltage
  • Ultra-low noise torodial autoformer assures no mechanical noise or hum-inducing magnetic field
  • Fourteen AC outlets with two bi-directionally filtered banks to isolate digital and analog components
  • Output capacity 20 amps

What Makes a Product a "Demo"?
At Sweetwater, "Demo" usually means one of the following:
  • It might have spent a little time in our display room.
  • A Sales Engineer may have put it through it's paces to explain it to customers.
  • It could have been tried out for a few days.
We treat demo models exactly as we treat new gear. You get a full manufacturer's warranty, as well as Sweetwater's commitment to customer satisfaction. Other than it having been in someone's hands or hanging on a rack for a brief period of time, it's as good as new - at a great bargain!

Please note that this product is available in limited or single quantities.
While we do our best to keep our online product information up-to-date, we cannot guarantee that this product will be in stock at the time your order is placed (for instance, another customer could be purchasing this product as you read this text). If you would like to verify that this product is in stock prior to making your purchase, please contact us or call toll free (800) 222-4700.
