Channel 1 & 2 Output fuse

” The outputs are individually protected 

by a ceramic 3.15A T (time delay) fuse. 

Channel 1 & 2 Power outlets

” are for medium to low power 

source components such as pre amplifiers, optical disc players, DACs, 
tuners, phono stages or turntables. Each channel is independently 
regenerated and frequency adjustable.

The

 

Power on/off switch

” switches input power to the 

PowerStation and must be the on position for local or remote 
operation.

The “

IEC fused power inlet

” provides input power to the unit. The 

unit is protected by a ceramic 3.15A T (time delay) fuse.

The “

Remote XLR4M connector

” is for remotely switching the unit 

between standby and on.  A 6-24V AC or DC voltage across pins 1 and 
2 (any polarity) will switch the unit on, disconnecting the voltage will 
return the unit to standby.

It is recommended that all connections are made and checked before applying 
power. 

Equipment connected to the PowerStation’s outlets should not exceed a total 
continuous resistive load greater than 100VA per channel. 

Operation

The ISOL-8 PowerStation provides power by firstly converting the incoming AC 
mains power to smoothed DC.  An independent, high purity mains waveform is 
generated from this energy reservoir. The incoming mains frequency is fixed, but 
the PowerStation output is free from this restriction, allowing the user to take 
advantage of a higher “refresh rate” for connected equipment’s power supplies, 
thus enhancing performance. We encourage experimentation with different output 
frequencies to find the optimum for your system components.

Due to its low standby power consumption, the 

PowerStation

 can be left 

powered on a day-to-day basis, but should be switched off if the system is not 
being used for a significant period of time.
