Guardian Series
power distributors represent a significant advance in value, performance
and technology that have evolved from Shunyata Research’s
award-winning Hydra Series power distributors. Shunyata Research
has proven its commitment to improve performance and lower cost.
The Guardian Series Power distribution products have clearly achieved
that goal.
Features
Military / Industrial Grade Construction
All Guardians are built with
heavy gauge metal chassis
for durability in severe environments. The all-metal
construction ensures electrical and fire safety in high current
systems. Not only can the Guardian’s outer chassis withstand
the weight of an SUV, internally, it is capable of defeating
anything the power line can dish out.
Custom Install / Home Theater Oriented Flexibility
The Guardian’s
novel trapezoidal shape provides a stable platform even when using
heavy, audiophile grade power cabling. Floor model Guardian’s
feature top mounted inlet and outlets, which makes connections easy
when used behind home theater wall-units and in back of equipment
racks.
Guardians may also be rack mounted, either individually or in combination
to serve the diverse professional or custom installation needs involving
home media, professional studio or audiophile systems.
Unprecedented Power and Current Delivery
Guardians deliver a continuous 20-Amps of unrestricted current for
power hungry audio/video systems. The Guardian products use expensive
electromagnetic breakers that eliminate the power losses and thermal
noise often caused by fuses and cheap thermal breakers. Guardians
do not use coils, transformers or baluns that restrict the instantaneous
flow of current.
World Class Protection “Trident Defense System”
Guardians use the Shunyata Research exclusive three-stage Trident
Defense System, formerly only available in the renowned Shunyata
Research Hydra Series power conditioners.
This three-stage power protection method provides comprehensive
power protection and the elimination of noise and power transients
from just a few volts above the nominal 120 VAC, up to 6,000 volts.
Many power conditioners and power strips use simple MOV protection
schemes that degrade significantly over time and eventually burn
out. These power conditioning products only protect against transient
spikes above ~300 VAC, while allowing disturbances in the critical
120VAC to 300VAC range to pass through to your system. Guardian Series
power distributors protect through the entire range.
Extraordinary Performance to Value Ratio
Guardian Power Distributors are capable of power distribution, noise
isolation and system protection in a package that sets new standards
for value and performance.
All critical design elements that have made Shunyata Research’s
Hydra Series power distributors the most acclaimed products of their
kind, are also applied in the Guardian Series products, with economy
and flexible application potential in mind.
