The PS Audio Power Plant series is designed to provide clean, safe, low-distor-
tion, low-impedance, regenerated AC power for your audio and video equip-
ment.
There are four models, the P300, the P600, the P1200, and the P2000. Each
model has the same features and functions, but they differ with respect to output
power. The model name indicates the output power in watts; the P300 is a 300-
watt unit, the P600 is a 600-watt unit, the P1200 is a 1200-watt unit, and the
P2000 is a 2000-watt unit.
The P300 was designed for all low and medium power applications such as CD
players, D to A processors, televisions, projectors, tuners, etc. The P300 was
not designed for power amplifiers, integrated amplifiers, or receivers with output
greater than 50 watts per channel.
The P600, P1200, and P2000 were designed for powering medium to large
power amplifiers, as well as all low-level equipment.
The Power Plant is not a filter or line conditioner. Rather, it is a regenerative AC
synthesizer. The Power Plant receives AC energy from your home's wall socket,
converts it to DC (Direct Current, which is the same as a battery voltage), then
converts it back to AC without any noise or problems.
The essential elements inside the Power Plant are:
·An input AC transformer.
·High-voltage MOV protection devices.
·AC to DC conversion, via high-speed diode bridge and multi-thousand
mfd capacitors.
·DSP-based, multi-frequency, programmable sine wave oscillator.
·A stereo power amplifier, ranging from 300 watts to 2000 watts, depending
on the model of Power Plant.
·Microprocessor-controlled front panel display and functions.
There is an optional display board available for all models of the Power Plant.
This optional display board is a user-installable board that replaces the existing
front panel display board. It provides a distortion analyzer, graphic oscilloscope,
digital rms voltmeter, and a digital distortion analyzer. If you have purchased the
display board for your new Power Plant, the instructions for its installation are
included with the display board kit.
The output of the PS Audio Power Plant produces regulated, balanced, 115 volt
AC power (domestic model) or 230 volts AC (export model). All Power Plants,
domestic and export, can be set to the appropriate input voltage: 120 volts (US,
Canada, Taiwan) or 220 volts (Europe, Asia). The user may select the appropri-
ate voltage via an internal selection switch. Details are available in the setup
section of this manual.
