PF-1000LPS power filter combines 4 functions in one device: power noise filtering; linear power supply with selectable output DC voltage for various devices; two USB ports powered by the built-in linear power supply to use for powering and charging; and surge and overload protection (for all powered outputs, including DC socket and USB ports).
POWER NOISE FILTERING
The electricity network in our homes or workplaces is exposed to different interferences for instance electromagnetic interference (EMI) generated by appliances connected to the same network (refrigerators, air conditioners, computers etc.).
These interferences are not only produced inside your house or office but by all appliances in your building or even outside it and can differ on the time of day or week when the traffic on the electrical network changes.
All these interferences which we call noises can get into your AC power and interfere with your system.
This “dirty” electricity can have a negative effect on performance of your audio-video system.
TAGA Harmony power noise filter is a great way to limit the negative noises from your electricity and to isolate your system from the contaminated power.
The contaminated electricity has also a negative impact on internal circuits and power supplies of your equipment and because the PF filter works as a buffer between the wall socket and your gear helping to increase the longevity of the connected components.
LINEAR POWER SUPPLY FOR DC AND USB OUTPUTS
Most DC-powered electronic devices use simple, low-cost external power adapters with switch-mode power supplies.
Such adapters operate at high switching frequencies to supply power, which may cause various electrical noises getting to the connected devices, and even inject these noises into your electricity network affecting other equipment.
Such noises dramatically deteriorate the sound performance and efficiency of audio-video devices.
The solution is to use a high-quality linear power supply, such as the one in the PF-LPS filters.
The PF-LPS linear power supply offers a very significant and immediate upgrade to the sound performance of your DC-powered devices.
DC OUTPUT and USB PORTS
• High-power 100W, isolating toroidal power transformer, which can provide up to 3A (72W) at 24V.
• 3-tier filtering network:
I & II tier for 230 – 240 Voltage : the initial filtering by the device’s power noise filtering system, and the second by the built-in isolating power transformer.
III tier for the DC Voltage : specially-design filtering at the end stage separately for the DC output and USB ports.
DC OUTPUT
• Flexible and easy DC output configuration:
- 6 selectable DC output voltages (5V, 9V, 12V, 15V, 19V, 24V).
- Selectable DC output polarity.
• High-quality DC-output cable: 2 x 0.75 mm2 Oxygen Free Copper conductors.
• Supplied 10 DC plugs (included the one installed on the DC-output cable) in most popular shapes and sizes allow to use with many DC-powered devices.
SURGE AND OVERLOAD PROTECTION
The PF-LPS filter provides surge and overload protection for all outputs.
I tier protection : the filtering and protection system with a push-to-reset circuit breaker.
II tier, 3-level additional protection for the DC output and USB ports :
the system using the built-in isolating power transformer -> step-down switching regulator -> short-circuit and thermal overload circuit specially designed for the DC output and USB ports.
The voltage indicator helps to control whether the power voltage in the wall socket is stable.
IEC C14 power inlet and a removable Schuko-IEC C13 power cord give an option to upgrade to a premium audiophile power cable at any time.
Thanks to the PF-LPS power filters you will be able to enjoy a better quality of your audio and video equipment.

PC/PF -what is the difference between PC series conditioners and PF filters?
The PF series filters provide mains noise filtering function.
The filtering system is designed in a universal way to work with various audio-video devices.
The PC series conditioners provide a more advanced filtering system with specially optimized sections (groups) for specific types of devices, e.g. preamplifiers, amplifiers or sound sources. The section dedicated to sound sources is additionally isolated by a toroidal transformer.
Models with the DC symbol are equipped with the DC component blocking function (DC blocker).
Models with the USB symbol are equipped with a charging function via USB.
Models with the LPS symbol are equipped with a linear power supply function for DC.
All conditioners and filters are equipped with surge protection.
