User manual ISOTEK NOVA

[. . . ] We believe all products benefit from their own clean power supply, therefore we advocated the concept of using (smaller) individual filters on each component, with these being specifically designed for their purpose, this dramatically reduces and stops component cross contamination and dispels the belief that one size fits all. Every single component used in our designs is extensively tested for quality, reliability and purpose. Our circuit designs are extensively `field' tested before coming to market so we can guarantee the widest compatibility with third party products. Within the market of premium audio it is vital to offer exceptional performance and value for money. [. . . ] It is NOT recommended that Nova be placed on top of or under other pieces of equipment. Areas where `tube' amplifiers are present should not exceed 25 °C. If you are positioning the Nova in the close proximity of such a device please be aware of this factor. If you have to locate the unit on the floor we strongly recommend you do not place the unit near heat sources, such as radiators or air ducts. Good air circulation is essential to prevent heat build up within the chassis. Do not place the Nova on a soft surface, for example a rug or carpet, which could block the ventilation intakes on the bottom half of the chassis. Do not let any liquids spill onto or objects fall into the chassis. Should either of these events happen immediately switch off the unit at the wall socket, wait for at least one minute, unplug all other cables and return it to your authorised IsoTek dealer for a full service.

Refer to authorised personnel for servicing SERIAL NO. February 2005 C. Installation Placement Ideally the unit should be placed upon its own dedicated shelf of an audio grade equipment rack. Once the Nova is positioned connect the unit to a mains wall socket by the cable supplied. Ensure that the RCBO if in the off position and connect the power cord into the blue socket on the bottom left hand side of Nova's back panel. Ensure that the silver release catch on the blue Neutrik plug is slightly to the left of 12 o'clock, push in and rotate clock wise until the plug clicks into place. To release pull the silver clip backwards and reverse the action. Now plug the standard UK three pin, European Schuko or American three pin into the wall socket, and turn on if the wall socket has a switch. Power Nova up by pushing the RCBO switch to the up position. The front panel blue LED will illuminate. Look to the rear of the unit, if the red fault light* is illuminated the following steps need to be carried out. In the majority of European countries using schuko or similar connectors merely reversing the rotation of the plug in the wall socket is sufficient. For UK customers and those using 13amp fused plugs you should probably contact an electrician to determine why your wall socket is wired out of phase. To clarify the fault light is mainly to determine correct neutral / live (phase) connection. Do not take this as a way of testing other parts of the system, it is merely for the correct connection of Nova.
