    HPS-516 POWER SUPPLY
    Wheatstone HPS-516 Power Supply

    Wheatstone’s HPS-516 power supply is engineered and built to maximum peak-tolerant specifications right here in our factory to protect your Audioarts consoles and Wheatstone talent stations, ensuring the reliable operation of your most mission-critical studio components for an extended period. Studios are regularly exposed to surges and voltage spikes that can take a toll on equipment. Off-the-shelf power supplies won’t suffice when a 2,000-volt spike comes down the line, yet these commercial supplies are frequently used in many broadcast consoles, leading to a shortened lifespan and reduced reliability over time.

    The HPS-516 power supply is designed to safeguard critical components and regulate power consistently and smoothly throughout the life of your Audioarts IP-12, DMX, Air 1, and Air 4 consoles, as well as Wheatstone TS-4 and TS-22 talent stations.

    Our power supplies are engineered by Wheatstone and manufactured in our factory alongside our consoles and talent stations, all developed specifically to meet the demands and rigors of broadcasting day after day, year after year.

    The HPS-516 is available in a single or double rackmount option.

    FLEXIBLE MOUNTING OPTIONS
