Features Descriptions
SMP (SERIES MULTI-STAGE PROTECTION)
Furman's SMP surge suppression virtually eliminates service calls and costly
"down time". Traditional surge suppression circuits sacrifice themselves when
exposed to multiple transient voltage spikes, requiring the dismantling of your
system and repair of your UPS. Not so with Furman's SMP. Damaging transient
voltages are safely absorbed, clamped, and dissipated. Your connected equip-
ment is protected, while your Furman UPS protects itself!
Unique to Furman's SMP is its unparalleled clamping voltage, defined as the
amount of voltage that is allowed to pass through to your equipment when the
protection device is subjected to a transient surge or spike. While other designs
offer clamping voltages that are well above 600 Vpk, Furman's SMP clamps at
400 Vpk, (280 VAC RMS) even when tested with multiple 6000 Vpk- 3000 amp
surges! This unprecedented level of protection is only available with Furman's
SMP technology.
EVS (EXTREME VOLTAGE SHUTDOWN)
Furman's trusted over/under-voltage (EVS) circuitry protects against prolonged
over-voltage conditions, such as accidental connections to 380 or 400 VAC, or
an intermittent neutral. It does so by monitoring the incoming voltage and, when
an unsafe condition is detected, triggering a relay which shuts off the incoming
power until the over/under-voltage condition has subsided.
LIFT (LINEAR FILTERING TECHNOLOGY)
Traditional AC power filters have been designed for unrealistic laboratory con-
ditions. Prior technologies, whether multiple-pole or conventional series-mode
filters, could actually harm audio and video performance more than they help,
due to the resonant peaking of their antiquated, non-linear filter designs. Under
certain conditions, these designs can actually add more than 10 dB of noise
to the incoming AC line! Worse still, lost digital data, the need to reboot digital
presets, or destruction of sensitive digital converters are frequently caused by
excessive voltage spikes and AC noise contaminating the equipment ground.
Furman's LiFT takes a different approach, ensuring optimal performance through
linear AC noise filtering without contaminating ground.

Important Saftey Instructions
(Please read prior to installation)
This manual contains important instructions that should be followed during installation
and maintenance of the F1500-UPS E and batteries.
Please read and follow all instructions carefully during installation and operation of the
unit. Read this manual thoroughly before attempting to unpack, install, or operate.
CAUTION! The F1500-UPS E must be connected to an AC power outlet with fuse or circuit
breaker protection.
DO NOT plug your F1500-UPS E into an outlet that is not grounded. If your UPS will be
plugged into an isolation transformer, GFCI / RCBO protection is required. If you need to
de-energize your UPS, turn off and unplug the F1500-UPS E.
CAUTION! DO NOT USE FOR MEDICAL OR LIFE SUPPORT EQUIPMENT! Furman does
not sell products for life support or medical applications. DO NOT use your Furman UPS in
any circumstance that would affect operation or safety of any life support equipment, with
any medical applications, or patient care.
CAUTION! The battery can energize hazardous live parts inside even when the AC mains
power is disconnected.
CAUTION! To prevent the risk of fire or electric shock install in a temperature and humid-
ity controlled indoor area, free of conductive contaminants. (Please see specifications for
acceptable temperature and humidity range).
CAUTION! To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not remove the cover. No user service-
able parts inside. (only qualified service professionals should replace the battery pack).
CAUTION! To avoid electrical shock, turn off the unit and unplug it from the AC power
source before installing a component.
CAUTION! DO NOT USE WITH OR NEAR AQUARIUMS! To reduce the risk of fire, do not
use with or near aquariums. Condensation from the aquarium can come in contact with
metal current contacts and cause the UPS to short out.
NOTE: AC Power management devices, such as this UPS, have certain limitations with re-
gard to reactive loads and wattage. The F1500-UPS E has a handling capacity of 1500VA
or approximately 900W. Excessive power consumption beyond these specifications can
affect battery life and performance.
