http://listserv.acsu.buffalo.edu/cgi-bin/wa?S1=confocalWe've been very happy with our UPS / Line conditioner from EATON
Powerware. Our building has a history of power fluctuations, etc. The
unit is a little noisier (louder, not noisy power) than I'd like, but
it's housed in the same room with our Leica SP5 and still the room is
not too noisy too work in. They have multiple sizes depending upon the
power requirements of the systems you'll be driving.

http://listserv.acsu.buffalo.edu/cgi-bin/wa?S1=confocalHi,
I am having problems with fluctuating voltage since our physical plant
replaced the perfectly good transformer outside the building with a
"new"
version (my wife works at a transformer plant, so I know they don't go
bad
unless something catastrophic occurs). Since then I've had some pretty
good
spikes, surges, etc.. and most are correlated with increase/decrease of
student presence on campus. Our campus electrical experts and confocal
service engineer are better at pointing fingers than providing
solutions.
I feel better now. On to the important stuff.
I was hoping for some feedback on good line conditioners that would be
appropriate for a variety of imaging equipment. I realize that several
different configurations might be needed. We have a confocal and two
SEMs
affected. I suspect our eventual, new confocal will experience similar
difficulties.
Thanks in advance!
