GigaWatt PF-1 EVO + PowerSync cable

PF-1 EVO is the latest, modified version of the basic filtering power strip, designed for power distribution and protection of budget audio and video systems.
The main change of the PF-1 EVO is internal cabling based on the company’s GigaWatt Powerlink copper wire OFHC, 4mm2 cross section.

The PF-1 EVO is a special product in the GigaWatt offer, because it surprises with its solid construction and quality of workmanship, and, at such an affordable price, an extremely positive effect on the sound.

The strip is made using high quality components. The distortion is filtered in a RLC filtering block. It is built using metalized polyester capacitors with low inductance and an IP (Iron Powder) filtering core.

All components of the filters are soldered to a massive PCB with large cross-section of the traces, with silver solder.

In this strip we also resigned from using traditional protective elements, like wire or thermal fuses, which throttle the free flow of current to the protected circuits and by this have a negative influence on the sound.

Protection against overvoltage and power surges is guaranteed by a multi-stage protection circuit, composed of plasma sparks and new generation of UltraMOV varistors.

Those elements, working together with a well designed, modern power grid, warrant a complex protection against overcurrent and overvoltage.

The PF-1 EVO uses an innovative current distribution system, being a proprietary development of the company.

It is based on massive power distribution bars of 2nd generation, made of polished, high purity, cathode copper slabs (Cu-ETP).

This system distributes the current directly to each pair of output sockets, using crimped and screw-tightened connections and GigaWatt PowerLink cabling made from OFHC copper,

with a cross-section of 4 QMM wires. The use of the star wiring topology and the high conductance and massive cross-section of about 30 QMM of each of the bars warrants an equal and stable power distribution regardless of the load on any of the strip’s outputs.

The PF-1 EVO power strip is equipped with six high quality power sockets GigaWatt G-040 Schuko, designed and manufactured by the company.

The brass connectors of those sockets were silver plated at the factory, without the usage of intermediary metals, like copper or nickel, which could introduce unfavorable series resistance and voltage loss.

The increased area of contact and the thick layer of silver guarantee sure contact with the plug pins. The sockets were additionally subdued to cryogenic modification and a demagnetizing process.

In order to effectively protect children, the G-040 sockets were equipped with integrated anti-surge shutters (increased protection against touching, conform with VDE 0620).

The PF-1 EVO is also available with outlets of type NEMA 5-20R, used in North America and some Asian countries, and with Australian outlets of type AS/NZS 3112.

The massive and durable chassis of the strip is made from metal. This creates a perfectly closed shield, protecting the inside filter and power distribution system from RFI noise.

The power strip is also equipped with a LED signaling proper function and power available on the sockets.

The strip is also equipped with a high quality IEC socket, allowing their user to connect any power cable. The power strip is equipped with the power cable PowerSync with 1.5m length.

To fully utilize the maximum potential of the PF-1 EVOwe recommend the usage of the PowerSync PLUS or LC-2 EVO  power cord.

This product is covered by an insurance policy for the connected equipment, with a total insurance value of 1000000 PLN. The insurance is valid only in the European Union member states

 

 

 

PowerSync is the entry model of the new GigaWatt power cords family, started by PowerSymc ULTRA (previously known as LC-3EVO).                                                                                
The conductors are made from OFHC C10100 copper, with 5N purity, additionally annealed, to get a homogeneous structure and better conductivity.

The cable consists of three wires with a 14 AWG cross-section, insulated with PE dielectric. A single wire contains 10 strands with a diameter of 0.514mm.
The conductors are protected with a static shield made of plastic laminated aluminum foil. The tight construction of the screen, covering 100% of the cable surface,

perfectly protects against unwanted external EMI and RFI noise, and prevents the formation and propagation of internal interference. There is an additional drain wire under the screen.
The conductors are covered by an outer insulation of GA 70AT03 material, further surrounded by a nylon mesh braid.
All conductors are connected to the plug terminals mechanically, without soldering, which guarantees reliability and optimal performance.

PowerSync is an essential accessory for the PF-1e, PF-1EVO and PF-2EVO power strips.
The cable is equipped with high quality proprietary plugs-GigaWatt G-010 and G-030 (choice of IEC C15, IEC C19, SCHUKO, NEMA 5-20R, AS/NZS 3112).
