INSTALLING THE RACMAX 2500
Using four standard rack mounting screws (included) mount RACMAX 2500 to
a standard 19” rack cabinet.
Plug the RACMAX 2500 protector directly to a properly grounded 3-wire AC outlet. *
Turn the RACMAX 2500 on. Plug in the equipment and turn the equipment on.
If the equipment is working correctly, continue to plug in and turn on your
equipment. In the extremely unlikely event that everything does not work
perfectly, stop and read the troubleshooting section. If you continue to have
problems, call ITW Linx Customer Service Department at

*Many old buildings are inadequately wired. It is very common for a building to
be improperly grounded. Building wiring and grounding must conform to
applicable NEC (USA) or CEC (Canada).
RACMAX 2500 FEATURES
ON/OFF Switch—provides power to equipment connected to all twelve
outlets, eight on back and four on the front of unit.
15-Ampere Circuit Breaker—The circuit breaker will automatically “open”
when the current load is greater than 15 Amperes. When this happens, the
circuit breaker can be manually reset by simply pushing the reset button, which
will have “popped out.” The Power ON / Protection OK LED on the front panel
will not light until the circuit breaker has been reset.
Power OK LED—(Green LED) When lit, unit is turned on.
Switched Outlets—twelve switched AC outlets. The ON/OFF Switch on the
front panel controls the power state of all twelve outlets.
TROUBLESHOOTING
1. There is no AC power to my equipment, or my equipment doesn’t
turn on.
Make sure that the RACMAX 2500 is plugged into a working AC outlet. Check
all AC connections.
Make sure the RACMAX 2500 and connected equipment is turned on. Check to
see if the circuit breaker on the RACMAX 2500 needs to be reset (press in).
2. The RACMAX 2500 circuit breaker disconnects AC power from the
connected equipment.
You have exceeded the ampere rating this unit. As a temporary fix, disconnect
