components. Placement or proximity to other
components is not critical, and the Elite-15
PF does not produce any appreciable heat
under standard use. The Elite-15 PF may
also be rack mounted in a standard 19” rack
by attaching the Elite-15 PF rack ears. These
rack ears (contained within the plastic rack kit
package) mount fl ush with the back portion
of the Elite-15 PF’s front panel. They are
attached to the chassis by installing each rack
ear with (3) pan-head Philips screws contained
within the Elite-15 PF rack mounting kit. The
third screw used for each rack ear is for the
center hole, located towards the rear and aids
in stabilizing the unit when rack mounted.
Connection:
AC Cable Routing
Once the Elite-15 PF is placed, its AC cord’s
female end must be plugged into the male IEC
connector located on the lower left hand side
of the rear panel (when facing the rear panel).
Next the male Edison plug must be connected
to an appropriate socket (see current rating
recommendation above).
Connecting Components to the Digital -
Video Component AC Outlet Banks
The Elite-15 PF’s four “Digital - Video
Component AC Outlets” should be employed
for critical video components such as DVD
players, projectors, plasma, or LCD video
screens. When employing the Elite-15 PF for
a 2-channel audio system, a pre-amplifi er and
or CD player would be ideally suited for these
outlets.
Connecting Components to the Linear
Filtering Power Banks
The Elite-15 PF’s four rear panel and one front
panel “Linear Filtering Power Outlets” should
be employed for any component not connected
to the “Digital - Video Component AC Outlets,”
with the exception of receivers, power
amplifi ers and powered sub-woofers. These
outlets still possess exceptional AC noise
fi ltering to maximize system performance.
Connecting Components to the High
Current Power Amplifi er Banks
All power amplifi ers, receivers and powered
sub-woofers should be connected to these four
outlets.
Many Audiophile and premium Home Theater
systems will have combined continuous
current demands below 15 Amps. It is rare,
in fact, for large power amplifi ers to draw
more than 4 Amps continuously. For superior
performance, it is vital that an AC fi lter possess
extraordinarily low impedance, and have the
capability to pass peak current demands far in
excess of the RMS (continuous) current rating.
The Elite-15 PF was designed to more than
meet this demand. Additionally, our Power
Correction Circuitry effectively creates a
current reserve in excess of 45 amps peak
up-charge that is cleaner and faster than a
dedicated line from your local power station.
This feature eliminates any concern towards
the current compression that can result from
typical power conditioners, and the peak
power reservoir benefi ts any power amplifi ers
performance dramatically.
Note about Power Factor Correction and
Current Consumption
When power correction technology is
employed with even the most sophisticated
circuit breakers, it effectively adds to the
perceived current load. Though the Elite-15
PF was designed for steady 15 Amp operation,
