This manual contains information concerning the proper installation and use of Tripp Lite’s Rackmount Power Strips.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS. Do not connect your power strip to an ungrounded
outlet. Do not use it with extension cords or adapters that eliminate its
connection to ground. Your power strip is designed for indoor use only.
Install it away from heat emitting devices such as radiators and heat
registers. Do not install where excessive moisture or other conductive
contaminants are present. Never install electrical wiring during a lightning
storm.
CAUTION Only those who are properly trained or qualified to use this
device should do so. Anyone who is not trained or qualified should not use
this device unless it is under the supervision of someone who is properly
trained or qualified to do so. Children must be supervised to ensure that they
do not use the device as a toy.
Never use the device if the cord and plug are damaged; if it is not working
properly, or if it has been dropped or damaged, take it to an authorized
service center for inspection and repair.
If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its
authorized service agent, or by qualified personnel in order to avoid a
danger.
Installation
Rackmount Installation To Mount Unit in Rack: Put four user-supplied rackmount screws (A) through the unit’s mounting ears (B) and into the rack rails as shown. The user must determine the fitness of the rackmount screws to hold the unit in the rack before installation.
- Reorient Mounting Ears: Unscrew the screws (A) holding the unit’s mounting ears (B) to the sides of the unit. Use the screws from Step 1 (A) to reattach the mounting ears (B) to the unit as shown. Use only the manufacturer-supplied screws or their equivalent (#6-32, ¼” flat head) to reattach the mounting ears.
- Mount Unit on Outside of Rack Rails: Put four user-supplied screws (C) or similar mounting hardware through the unit’s mounting ears (B) and into the side of the rack as shown. The user must determine the fitness of the user-supplied mounting hardware to support the unit before mounting.
Wallmount/Under Counter Installation Reorient the unit’s mounting ears as per the 0U Rackmount Installation above, then put four user-supplied screws or similar mounting hardware through the unit’s mounting ears and into the mounting surface. The user must determine the fitness of the user-supplied mounting hardware to support the unit before mounting.
Features
- Circuit Breaker(s) If the current draw of the equipment connected to your power strip exceeds your model’s Maximum Load Rating (see Specifications) for longer than a few seconds, a circuit breaker will trip to prevent any possible damage. When a circuit breaker trips, its plunger will pop up. Remove excess equipment and allow the breaker to cool one minute before depressing its plunger to reset the breaker. Caution (PDU2430 model only): If you depress the circuit breaker plunger during normal operation of your PDU, power will be interrupted to the receptacles and connected equipment will not be protected.
- Grounding Lug Use this screw (located by the power strip’s receptacles) to connect your power strip to ground.
