- EP-2000-- parallel high current surge
suppression and line filtering (neutral sounding with no power
insertion loss) available for our CPCs, PPC or any of our
Balanced Power Isolators. - $300
The
EP-2000 system (a patented design, manufactured for BPT by our
friends at Environmental Potentials Inc.) is designed to
suppress power line induced voltage surges up to 10,000 volts, which
is approximately three times greater than the industry recognized
statistical average of such surges entering a facility. It
operates upon the principle of selective filtering, time spreading and
absorption of voltage waveform anomalies induced onto and riding on a
line frequency sinusoidal power wave. At the instant a high voltage
transient or surge appears on the line frequency wave, it is clamped
at a level just above the peak value of the sinusoid. This clamping
action creates an amount of energy determined by the difference in the
clamping voltage and the peak voltage of the transient, the impedance
of the clamping device within the EP-2000, and the time duration of
the transient. A
solid state component designed for fail-safe performance. Includes
LED for instant visual confirmation that the EP2000 surge/filtration
system is fully active. If the EP2000 module should ever fail or loose
its full capability for surge suppression, it can easily be replaced.
· Removes,
absorbs and dissipates transient voltage surges and spikes, high
frequency noise and ring waves
· Frequency
Attenuation: -20 dB/decade roll-off starting at 2.5kHz
· MaxSurge
current: 25kA per mode
· Provides
both common and transverse modes of protection
· Extends
life of all equipment connected

HCF-30
- A 30-amp high current filter
and surge suppressor with extremely low power insertion loss. We
chose this very high current device in order to prevent any
possibility of dynamic compression when used in our balanced
power isolators or Clean Power Center - $200
(not available for the PPC)
While we believe that the AC mains panel remains the best location for surge
protection, this is impractical for many audiophiles. The filter/surge
protection built into the HFC-30 specs as follows:
-
Surge spike current -
58,500 surge amp
- Pulse power (peak) - 30,000,000 surge watts
- Energy dissipation (20 micro seconds) - 600 surge joules
- Response time - 1 pico second
- Filter Type: Quad Balanced Pi Filter
- Frequency Response: 10 KHz to 250 MHz
- Attenuation: 65 dB
-
- Machined aluminum faceplate - this 1/4" thick machined,
polished and coated panel that perfectly complements our Balanced
Power Isolators or CPC $75 [black or silver]. (not available
for the PPC)
- ERS Cloth - hi-tech declassified
material that absorbs and deflects RFI/EMI into the Ghz region - $75.
-
- Iso-Cones
- Custom made 1" machined 316 stainless steel isolation cones
with matching protective disc (to protect wood floors or shelving). These can be
used as standalone cones for any piece of gear or as a direct screw in
replacement footer for our balanced isolators or CPC (matching 1/4"
threaded stud included). $75 for a set of four or $60 for
a set of three.

- 4N
OFC Copper Litz wiring--unit is internally wired with our custom
12 AWG Oxygen Free
Copper Litz stranded copper wiring for faster transient response, improved dynamics,
better high frequency extension, uncolored midrange and tight bass.
This wiring matches our L-10 power cord. - $25.
-
- 4N
Silver wiring (double annealed)--unit is internally wired with our custom high
purity 10AWG solid silver wiring in a Teflon jacket for superb low
level detailing and a warm, organic midrange that tube lovers enjoy. -
$75
-
- 6N
UP-OCC Copper wiring--unit is wired with ultra pure single crystal
12 AWG stranded copper wire for excellent low level detailing, neutral
tone and smooth sound. - $50
-
- One or two 300VA LoNo* balanced isolation transformer/s is/are used to balance and isolate AC power for best low-noise performance with a current restriction of 2.5
amps. One transformer may be added to power a preamp and/or digital components. Due to its current limitation, this transformer usually connects to only one or two duplexes to retain the remainder for high-current component power sources. A second 300VA transformer may be added, providing the opportunity to electrically isolate digital and analog front-end equipment. A CPC outfitted with two transformers generally will have one duplex connected to one transformer, one or two outlets connected to the other and leave the remaining duplex outlets for high-current equipment only.
Two 300VA transformers can also be wired in parallel for a 5A
capability. - $250
each (available for CPC
only)

BPT Power Cord factory-installed upgrade option menu:
-
Super-Shield, our new proprietary hand-applied shielding technique whose combination of carefully chosen and
implemented materials makes for superior RFI/EMI rejection.
Unique to the Super-Shield is the shielding of the plugs as well
as the cabling. The lowered noise floor is a marvel to behold, with jaw-dropping effects on recordings for first-class performance. This can be applied to any of our cords for a quantum leap forward in performance - $100/6ft length, $15/add. foot
- Plug-Shield, our proprietary 3" long tubular shield
slips over high-end AC and IEC plugs by Marinco, Wattgate, FIM, Furutech,
Hubbell, etc... Designed to fix the weak point in most all high-end power cords - the unshielded plug.
Shielded power cords have single or multi-layered shielding over the cable to protect from RFI/EMI but loose the
effect when it comes to the unshielded plugs. BPT Plug Shields absorb and reflect RFI/EMI to lower the AC noise floor, improving soundstage depth and low-level detail on any
shielded power cord - $25 per pair
