Is Trouble Shooting Computer Problems Affecting Business?
As the processing capability of computers continues to become faster and more powerful, businesses struggle with the complexity of
keeping their IT systems running efficiently. Failing to use necessary power protection equipment on computers and connected
peripherals such as printers, scanners, and multifunctional devices is an often overlooked yet costly mistake. Downtime for a
networked computer system results in reduced employee productivity and cost employer's substantial amounts of money.
Many businesses fail to realize that older buildings and power grids were not designed to support the today's microprocessor based
equipment. Silently in the background on electrical circuits can be power quality problems that affect the performance of today's
electronic circuits and microprocessor's. These intermittent problems appear or manifest themselves as software or hardware
problems when in reality they are power quality issues. Protecting microprocessor based equipment is a necessary step to safeguard
the investment in equipment purchased, maintain or improve productivity, and ensure system reliability that will lead to a lower
total cost of ownership and greater return on investment.
Benefits of Power Protection:
It reduces downtime, error codes, frozen
screens, "no problem found" service calls
Protects computers systems against the
most severe spikes and surges
Gives the maximum reduction in service calls
Protects telephone/modem/network
Lifetime product warranty
If the Smart Power Systems
equipment fails and this
failure allows a surge to
pass through and damage
the connected equipment,
Smart Power Systems will pay
for the repair or replacement
of the connected equipment
up to $25,000.

About the Computer Guardian
The Computer Guardian is a complete power filter solution that offer comprehensive power protection for computers, telephone, modem,
and network. Our computer grade filters are power conditioners that protect computers and other related microprocessor-based products.
The Computer Guardian is ideal for protecting computers, telephones, and network equipment in home or office environments.
Transformer Based Filters (TBF™)
Smart Power System' patented TBF™ technology is the application of the
differential transformer to power quality products. The differential
transformer provides noise rejection equal to an isolation transformer
with a much smaller footprint. This engineering accomplishment enabled
scaling and the noise rejection desired for a wide range of amperage and
voltage applications.
Voltage spikes are one of the main causes of system failures and cause
thousands of service calls annually on all types of electronic systems.
Service calls that are avoidable. Smart Power Systems' TBF™ technology
delivers unequaled performance for protection against minor and severe
spikes and surges that comprise over 80% of power problems. Our
Computer Guardian products are rated 15 amps and protect systems
requiring 120 Volts.
Benefits
Smart Power Systems' TBF™ technology eliminates power issues that
cause Disruption, Degradation and Destruction to electronic components.
Benefits include enhanced operation, reduced downtime and extended
operating life.
