Congratulations on your purchase of 

a Furman AR-1220 AC Line Voltage 

Regulator. The AR-Series regulators 

are designed specifi cally for any audio, 

video, or computer rackmount system 

requiring clean, fi ltered, and regulated 

AC power for optimum operation.

AR SERIES FEATURES 

• 

Nominal output voltages vs. 

“in Regulation” ranges:

• 

Usable range for most equipment is an 

additional 10% above and below the 

capture ranges shown in the table Ten 

LED bar graphs for Input Voltage and 

Output Current Extreme overvoltage or 

undervoltage causes instant shutdown, 

protecting equipment

• 

Extreme Voltage Shutdown indicator LED

• 

Output In Regulation indicator

• 

14 regulated, conditioned outlets Twelve 

20A outlets on the back panel, two 15A 

outlets on the front

• 

Fast acting user accessible circuit break-

er protects against overload or shorts

• 

Output capacity 20 amps

• 

Very low stray magnetic fi eld leakage

• 

On off breaker switch

• 

Output voltage selector switch 

(AR-1220J only)

• 

Rugged, two space rack unit weighs 

only 50 lbs. (23 kg.)

AR 1220J NOTE: FIRST SELECT 

CORRECT VOLTAGE!

Before using your model AR 1220J Voltage Regu-

lator, be sure that the output voltage switch on 

the rear panel is correctly set for the AC voltage 

required by your equipment Each item of equipment 

that you intend to power with the AR 1215J Voltage.  

Regulator should have its required voltage indicated 

on it, usually on the rear near the cord. If in doubt, 

consult your dealer.

GENERAL INFORMATION

Furman Voltage Regulators are intended to pro-

tect sensitive electronic equipment from problems 

caused by AC line voltage ir-regularities brownouts 

or overvoltages that can cause audio to-nal chang-

es, digital equipment malfunction (such as loss of 

MIDI programs or other data), or, in extreme cases, 

permanent damage. They accept input voltages 

over a wide AC voltage range (see table at left) and 

convert them to, and stabilize them at, the desired 

national voltage standard, ±5V. Voltages approxi-

mately ±10% beyond that range may be converted 

to usable levels, depending on the requirements of
