POWERBANK 6

Thank you for purchasing the Transparent PowerBank 6 (we call it P6 for short). With this product you will
find new enjoyment from your music and film systems.We certainly have!
The PowerBank 6 is one of the finest surge protection power strips available. It features the
security of surge protection without any of the performance drawbacks normally associated with
surge protectors.Your new P6 has 6 high current, grounded outlets.Transparent PowerLink power
cords provide additional filtering and isolation when used with the P6. Transparent power products
effectively isolate components, remove line noise and modulation distortion, and suppress spikes
and surges without the use of transformers, chokes or other series filtering devices which limit cur-
rent capability and add distortions. These unique products are the most transparent way to clean
up the power going into your high end audio and video components for cleaner sound and picture
coming out.
All Transparent Power Products have a limited two year warranty on parts and labor.This war-
ranty is also extendable to five years to the original owner. Please consult your warranty card for
details.
WARNING
The PowerBank 6 must be used with the correct voltage to avoid damage to the unit and
associated equipment. Please read the instruction manual carefully before operating your

INSTRUCTIONS AND NOTES
1Before plugging in the P6, be sure that it has the correct voltage for your application.The voltage
is marked on the packaging as well as on the unit itself. Use of the P6 with incorrect voltage can
result in an unsafe condition and cause damage to the unit and your equipment. Damage result-
ing from the use of the unit with improper voltage is not covered by the warranty.
2Plug the P6 directly into a grounded wall outlet. For best results, do not plug the P6 into an exten-
sion cord or other power conditioning devices.The power cord is approximately 2 meters long.
3The ON-OFF toggle switch is marked with a 0for off and a 1for on.When the switch is in the
ON position the green LED labeled POWER ON will illuminate to indicate power to all 6 outlets.
4If the P6 is plugged into a non-grounded outlet the red LINE FAULT LED will light.The P6 must
be plugged into a grounded outlet to provide common-mode surge protection.
5All 6 outlets on the P6 provide surge protection for your components.This circuitry does not add
distortions or limit current to your components.
6The green LED labeled PROTECTION ACTIVE indicates that the surge protection circuitry is
functioning properly. The LED will illuminate whenever the power switch is turned on and the P6
is plugged into an active wall outlet. If the green LED does not illuminate please contact your
Transparent dealer or Transparent Audio.
7The 15 amp circuit breaker located on the end of the P6 protects against a potentially dangerous
overload. If the circuit breaker opens during use make sure that the combined load of the compo-
nents plugged into the P6 does not exceed 15 amps and that all components are functioning properly.
Please contact your dealer or Transparent Audio if you need help with this.
83-to-2 prong adaptors or “cheater plugs” are often used to defeat undesirable ground loops. Do
not use these devices on the P6 power cord. If such adaptors are necessary to prevent hum, use
them only on the power cords of the components causing the hum at the point where they plug
into the P6.

All Transparent Power Cords and Power Banks are compatible with both 50hz and 60hz frequencies.
However, the PowerIsolator 4 and PowerIsolator XL are painstakingly tuned to a specific frequency for
maximum noise reduction; therefore, we make specific versions for 50hz and 60hz frequencies, and the units
must be used only with the power frequency for which they were designed.
