MOnSTeR'S eXClUSIVe T2

The Monster Power HTS 1650 MP PowerCenter features exclusive Monster T2 technology . T2 is an active electronic
microprocessor-controlled circuit that sits in front of the surge protection circuitry in select Monster Power products .
T2 monitors the line, neutral and ground lines and automatically disconnects the PowerCenter from the AC power
line when a long duration low-voltage sag or high-voltage swell occurs (continuous voltage below 80Vrms
or above 132Vrms) .
When the voltage sags or swells to these potentially damaging levels, ultra-fast T2 auto-disconnect protection circuitry
shuts down the Monster PowerCenter for 15 seconds . When the under-voltage or over-voltage condition returns
to normal, T2 reconnects the PowerCenter to full operation after 15 seconds . If the fault condition does not clear,
the T2 comparator circuit keeps the unit shut down .
Unlike ordinary power management devices, T2 will shut down your PowerCenter before the MOVs (Metal Oxide
Varistors) and thermal fuses sense an overload condition and sacrifice themselves to protect your connected components .
This will extend the PowerCenter's life, while providing the system protection you need .
