What kind of power events damage office equipment?

  • 破坏性的激增
    • Caused by lightning and other catastrophic events
    • Range from 100V to 6000V and the duration is less than 1 millisecond
    • Most copier service agreements do not cover damage caused by these types of power events
  • 破坏性的噪音
    • 线路上不需要的电压/电流
    • 是经常由其他设备产生的吗, 在同一栋楼(电梯)内, 机械, 苏打水的机器, 其他附近设备, 等.)

“Studies show that up to 80% of most…power quality problems are caused by disturbances created inside of a facility or business.”

What problems will surges and noise cause?

  • Unnecessary machine downtime and performance problems
  • 不可靠的设备
  • 最终用户的挫败感
  • 组件退化
  • 设备过早故障
  • 拷贝质量问题，错误反馈， & 纸堵塞
  • 打印文件丢失和网络变慢
  • 逻辑锁定和伪错误代码
  • 昂贵的电路板和设备损坏
  • High Unexpected Costs (insurance claims, overtime, damage not covered by typical service contracts)

“A momentary disturbance can cause scrambled data, 中断通信, 一只冻僵的老鼠, 系统崩溃和设备故障. A power voltage spike can damage valuable components. Power quality issues can cause business problems….”

这些问题是如何影响你的?

  • Wasted time handling complaints and other administrative issues due to equipment problems
  • End-users less productive due to equipment downtime
  • 最终用户的压力和沮丧
  • Managers and supervisors become dissatisfied and frustrated
  • Additional, unnecessary costs for you and your customer

“Up to 40% of business downtime is related to power quality problems.”

Why is it important to utilize power protection?

  • Copiers and other office technology run better
  • Copiers and other office technology last longer
  • End users are happier and less frustrated
  • 取消投诉 & 获得终身客户
  • 优化复印机和打印机的性能
  • 减少与电力相关的服务电话
  • Expand and upgrade service contracts to include coverage for power related catastrophic events
  • Green Advantage: help end-users reduce paper and toner waste
  • 心灵的平静

“Since the power filter has been put into place, we have not made one service call on [the] machine. The productivity increase alone has paid for the unit many times over in just this month! We are now using filters on all of our new digital engines.”

——约翰·R. 菲普斯，加州州立大学圣贝纳迪诺分校

“I conducted a study that shows a 41% reduction in nuisance service problems and significant improvement in machine performance as a result of using adequate power protection on our copiers.”

——罗伯特·莱恩，亚利桑那州立大学

电源保护的真相

神话

真理
Office equipment comes with adequate internal power protection, so there is no need for an external power protection device.“假! The switch-mode power supplies in copiers and office equipment do not protect against common mode noise and offer nominal protection against surges. Office equipment alone falls well short of the IEEE standards and the manufacturer’s recommendations regarding surge protection.
“A dedicated line (outlet) will prevent power problems from occurring.“假! Dedicated lines only ensure that sufficient power is provided to your equipment. It does not prevent against destructive surges and disruptive noise that causes equipment problems. 此外, if your customer installed a dedicated line, it is extremely unlikely the dedicated line was installed an isolated ground. Without an isolated ground this line is not immune to noise disruptions and will not prevent against harmful surges.
“Office equipment in new buildings is not susceptible to power problems.“假! The majority of power problems are created internally – within a facility – by improper wiring, 电路过载, and other equipment being used in the building. “Studies show that up to 80% of most…power quality problems are caused by disturbances created inside of a facility or business.亚利桑那电力公司(www.arizona Power.aps.com)
“The Cat5e network standard is not a recognized or credible standard for network connectivity and protection.“假! Cat5e TIA/ eai568 - b.2 Standard is the official standard and minimum requirement for network hardware. Power protection connections and cables, not Cat5e certified can cause network problems.
“Network and fax lines are not susceptible to power disruptions.“假! Network and fax lines can carry harmful surges directly into equipment that is not properly protected. “We see far more damage due to power surges on the data (phone & 网络)电路比交流电路.John Meyer, Hytec技术经理
“DSL and fax lines are not susceptible to noise.“假! Fax lines can be adversely affected by DSL signals transmitted over the phone lines. Voice signals are carried in the 0 to 4 kHz band, while DSL signals are carried at higher frequencies on the same transmission line. Interference and noise from the DSL signal can disrupt fax transmissions unless a proper filter is installed.
“Off the shelf power strips and other commonly used surge protectors are sufficient to protect our equipment. 全国网赌正规平台不需要任何额外的东西.“假! Most power strip type surge suppressors offer limited protection, and most are little more than a multi-outlet extension cord
“High-frequency voltage can be measured at the wall outlet using a meter or Sure Test device.“假! It is impossible to measure high-frequency voltage without sophisticated high-frequency laboratory equipment.
