Receptacles and Connections
The P-3600 AR G is equipped with ten NEMA 20 amp regulated AC outlets. The rear AC outlets feature discrete noise isolation in
two banks. The two round SPST 20 amp magnetic breakers for Bank A and Bank B are clearly indicated on the front panel of the
P-3600 AR G. The front panel duplex opposite the magnetic breakers should be considered as an extension of Bank B and therefore
any current derive through the convenience outlets will be linked to the Bank B magnetic breaker.
In instances where a 120 volt 30 amp service is required, the rear panel NEMA L5-30R outlet provides a regulated and linear filtered
source. A male twist locking L5-30P AC plug will securely seat in the outlet delivering the P-3600 AR G's full capability. The high
in-rush magnetic breaker / main power switch acts as the primary safety device for the L5-30R outlet. The magnetic breaker and
L5-30R outlet are rated for 30 amps at 120 volts or 15 amps at 240 volts.
A female NEMA L14-30R Twist-Lock is supplied. The voltage supplies will differ from continent to continent. Touring productions
may require more than one L14-30R configuration due to the multitude of options found internationally. It is recommended that
electrical supply cables and L14-30R Twist-Lock connectors be wired in advance based on the anticipated electrical requirements to
ensure quick set up. If you have any questions while wiring the connectors, please call Furman for assistance or obtain the assis-
tance of a licensed electrician.
INSTALLATION
Because of the toroidal transformer design, the Furman P-3600 AR G may be positioned near most other equipment without fear
that the other equipment will be disrupted by leakage of a strong 50/60 Hz magnetic field. Nevertheless, suggested rack locations
would be either at the top or bottom. Use extreme caution when loading or racking the P-3600 AR G. The weight of the unit may
become cumbersome and require assistance. Ask for assistance when racking the P-3600 AR G.
Rear rack mounting ears are located at each side of the P-3600 AR G. The adjustable ears should be removed prior to using with
rear rack rails. The rear rack ears may be used in conjunction with the front panel chassis ears, if no rear rack rails are available. As
with any rackmount equipment, be sure to use 10-32 machine screws for mounting in the rack's tapped holes (this is not a metric
size). In particular, beware of 10-24 screws, which may fit if forced but which will strip the threads. To avoid marring the front panel
finish, use plastic washers under the screw heads. While in the rack, you may remove the P-3600 AR G front panel handles.
Rear Rack Mounting:
If you are installing the P-3600 AR G in a rack that has rear as well as front mounting rails, you may easily secure it to the rear of
your rack. Simply remove the securing screws* from the side and front portions of the P-3600 AR G's adjustable rear rack ear and
reinforcement side plate (located on either chassis side), reverse it and re-attach to the P-3600 AR G chassis (See illustration below).
* NOTE: Please use the screws which are provided. If screws must be obtained elsewhere, do not use screws longer than 5/16 of an
inch. Screws longer than 5/16" may contact internal components rendering the unit inoperable.
L14-30R Input Connector and Electrical Supply Cable:
The P-3600 AR G is accompanied with a female L14-30R Twist-Lock connector. NO ELECTRICAL SUPPLY CABLE IS PROVIDED. Due
to the countless differences in electrical code requirements around the world, plus the varying cable length needs in individual
installations, it is not possible to include a complete supply cable with your P-3600 AR G. The cable-mount connector that mates
with the P-3600 AR G's twist-lock connector is supplied, but it is up to qualified personnel to hook up the electrical supply cable with
one of appropriate gauge, number of conductors, length, and source-end connector.
