Furman F1500-UPS-E - UPS Power Backup The Furman F1500-UPS-E is a premium uninterruptible power supply (UPS) designed specifically for audio/video professionals and home theatre enthusiasts. It delivers reliable battery backup, advanced surge protection, and superior noise filtration to safeguard your sensitive A/V equipment. Overview Traditional UPS systems were designed for IT applications and often lack features to protect and optimise premium audio and video components. The Furman F1500-UPS-E fills this gap with cutting-edge technology tailored to the demands of high-end audio, video, and control systems. It offers true sine wave output, advanced surge suppression, and programmable control for seamless integration with your home theatre setup. Key Features 1500VA battery backup maintains critical data and allows orderly shutdown during power outages Series Multi-Stage Protection (SMP) with non-sacrificial surge suppression and zero ground contamination Exclusive Linear Filtering Technology (LiFT) for superior audio and video clarity across four isolated outlet banks Extreme Voltage Shutdown (EVS) protects equipment from sustained overvoltage conditions True Sine Wave output ensures reliable operation on battery power Expandable runtime with optional 1500VA battery packs (BATT1500E-EXT) for extended backup Open-source RS-232 control over four independent AC outlet banks for customised power management Dual programmable IR blasters for safe shutdown of remote components during blackouts Optional TCP/IP interface card (sold separately) enables remote control and power monitoring via web interface Automatic Voltage Regulation (AVR) maintains consistent 120V output (±5%-10%) Includes USB interface, critical load management, and optional rack ears BlueBOLT® technology (with optional TCP/IP card) for remote reboot and power control worldwide Recommended Components High-current devices such as power amplifiers, powered subwoofers, and high-wattage displays are not recommended for use with the F1500-UPS-E due to rapid battery drain and potential performance degradation. Ideal components include: Satellite receivers Cable boxes Digital video recorders (DVRs) Media servers High-resolution gaming consoles Lamp-based video displays Larger IP-based control systems For power management of other equipment, Furman recommends Elite i or Reference i Series Power Conditioners. High-current devices benefit from solutions featuring Furman’s exclusive Power Factor Technology. Approximate Run Time (1500VA) Satellite Receiver: 90 minutes Control System + Media Player: 40 minutes DLP Projector + Two Satellite Receivers: 11 minutes PVR + Four Satellite Receivers: 9 minutes Note: Run times are guidelines only and depend on device and usage.
