Gigawatt PF-2 EVO + PowerSync PLUS Power Cord

PF-2 EVO is the improved version of the advanced filtering power strip designed to power and protect Hi-Fi audio and video systems.

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.

The EVO version uses the highest quality capacitors manufactured by Miflex according to Gigawatt specifications.

All components of the filters, are mounted with silver solder on a massive, double-sided printed circuit board with very large cross-sections.

The strip doesn’t have typically protective elements, such as fuses or thermal fuses, which throttling the free flow of current to the protected circuits have a negative effect 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-2 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 inner cabling with a cross-section of 4 QMM.

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-2 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-2 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.

All internal elements of the power strip are closed in a double metal chassis. This enclosure is a perfectly tight shield against RFI and EMI noise.

The strip is also equipped with a LED indicating proper operation of the device and a circuit indicating wrong polarization of the power line or wrongly connected grounding.

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 cord PowerSync with 1.5m length.

To fully utilize the maximum potential of the PF-2 EVO we recommend the usage of the LC-2 EVO  or PowerSync ULTRA power cable.

PowerSync PLUS is a representative of the new generation of GigaWatt power cables, initiated by the 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 leads with a cross-section of 2.5mm2 insulated with PE dielectric. Each lead contains 12 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 surrounded by a thick layer of flexible insulation, which is also an excellent material damping unwanted vibrations.
The whole is protected by a three-layer outer jacket, which consists of a combination of two layers of nylon mesh and a layer of dense glass fiber braid.
All conductors are connected to the plug terminals mechanically, without soldering, which guarantees reliability and optimal performance.

PowerSync PLUS 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).
