INSTALLATION

Power Supply lnstallation

Place your PR or TL power supply in a well-ventilated location. Note: The unit will

generate.. heat as it operates, especially if used at or near its current output limits. ~

WARNING!

Hazardous voltages are present inside the unit. DO NOT expose the unit to

I

rain or moisture. PR and TL models should only be used in a dry, indoor,

 

protected environment.

!

Equipment lnstallation (PR models)

 

Place your equipment next to your PR model power supply.

 

CAUTION!

 

DO NOT block the louvers on PR models. Allow at least 2" above the top of

 

the PR cabinet for ventilation. The compact, space-saving design of the PR

 

has been made possible by careful placement of the cabinet louvers and

 

design of the external heat sinks, to provide adequate internal cooling for

 

long life and reliable performance.

 

If you are installing a radio transceiver or other equipment directly on top of PR models, you must construct a small raised shelf with at least 2" clearance for the equipment to test

-on. The PR models' louvers are intentionally designed to prevent direct installatioh of

equipment on top of them.~

Equipment lnstallation (TL 11 and TLC 11 Trimline models)

I

 

TL 11 and TLC 11 models are designed specifically to accept the installation of popular name-brand radios. Simply set the radio on top of the power supply (TL 11 models) or slide the radio into the space between the top of the power supply and underneath the cabinet cover (TLC 11 models). TLC 11 models provide an integrated base station appearance while providing protection for the radio. Compatible radio models that will fit inside the TLC 11cover include: Motorola Radius and GM 300; GE MVS,MTD and TMX;GE Monogram; Maxon SM 4000; GE Marc and EF Johnson GT-ML81/GT-ML83.

Equipment Connection

There are two DC power output terminals on the rear of PR and TL power supplies: POSITIVE(+)/ RED, and NEGATIVE(-)/ BLACK. With all equipment turned OFF, connect the DC equipment to these terminals, making sure to observe the polarity of the wiring. Connect Positive to Positive (Red to Red), and Negative to Negative (Black to

Black).

Power Supply Start-Up

\

 

Plug the power suppty line cord into a 120V AC, 60 Hz. outlet. Depress the "ON/O$F" switch on the front panel. The switch body (or indicator light on smaller models) will illuminate RED, indicating the power supply is functioning properly. Turn the connected DC equipment ON only after the power supply has been turned ON.

PR Series, TL Series specifications

Tripp Lite is a renowned name in the power management industry, with a reputation built on innovation, reliability, and quality. Among their extensive product lineup, the PR Series and TL Series stand out for their effectiveness in protecting and managing power distribution.

The Tripp Lite PR Series is a line of professional-grade power conditioners designed to stabilize and improve power quality. These units are equipped with advanced features like automatic voltage regulation (AVR), which corrects voltage fluctuations and ensures that connected equipment receives a steady supply of power. This is crucial for sensitive electronic devices such as servers, network equipment, and audio-visual systems, which can suffer from malfunctions or damage due to inconsistent voltage levels.

One of the key technologies in the PR Series is the built-in surge protection, which safeguards devices from power surges and spikes. With a high joule rating, these power conditioners can absorb excessive voltage, ensuring that your valuable electronics remain safe from electrical damage. Furthermore, the PR Series often includes features like noise filtering that eliminate electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI), enhancing the performance and longevity of connected devices.

On the other hand, the Tripp Lite TL Series focuses on providing reliable power distribution. These units are ideal for data centers, telecom rooms, and other critical environments where maintaining uptime is paramount. The TL Series includes models equipped with rack-mounted power distribution units (PDUs) that support multiple outlets, allowing for flexible connectivity options. They offer features like remote monitoring via built-in Ethernet ports, enabling users to track power usage in real time and gain insights into their energy consumption patterns.

Both series are designed with user-friendliness in mind, featuring easy-to-read LCD displays that provide vital information about power status, input voltage, and load levels. Additionally, many models come with customizable alert systems that notify users of potential issues before they escalate into serious problems.

In conclusion, the Tripp Lite PR Series and TL Series embody the company’s commitment to providing high-quality power management solutions. With advanced technologies like voltage regulation, surge protection, noise filtering, and comprehensive monitoring capabilities, these products ensure that your electronic devices operate efficiently and safely, whether in a home office or mission-critical enterprise environment.
