SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
The RX100 is designed to operate with 120VAC, 60 Hz. Operation
with 220 or 240 volts will damage the unit and possibly cause
personal injury.
CAUTIONS
1. The RX100 must be grounded to operate. Defeating the
unit’s grounding capability could create a hazard.
2. There are no user serviceable parts inside the RX100. Do
not attempt service yourself. Contact Juice Goose as directed in
this manual if service is required.
3. Do not expose the RX100 to moisture. Avoid severe
physical impacts to the unit.
DISCLAIMER
Juice Goose shall under no circumstances be held responsible for
any loss, damage or injury resulting from the use of the RX100 in
a manner inconsistent with any of the procedures outlined in this
document. The user is responsible for determining whether this
product is appropriate for the intended application.
Juice Goose is not responsible for any indirect, secondary or ancil-
lary loss or damage, including personal injury, loss of or damage
to property or loss of income resulting from the operation or fail-
ure of this unit.

FRONT PANEL
Power On/Off Switch – This lighted rocker switch is located on the left
hand side of the chassis. The switch will light when the RX100 is on.
AC Outlets – ONE unswitched NEMA 5-15R OR NEMA 5-20R rated for
current loads up to 15 amps OR 20 amps at 120 volts.
Indicator Lights
Power – This blue light indicates the RX100 is connected to mains
power and the ON switch is engaged.
Protection OK – This blue light indicates the RX100 protection circuit is
functioning and the main AC power source is correct.
External Fault – In the event of continuous high voltage or incorrect
wiring of the line, neutral or ground leads supplying the RX100, the unit
will disconnect equipment plugged into it. The blue Protection OK light
will be OFF and the white External Fault indicator will light.
REAR PANEL
AC Outlets –
Seven NEMA 5-15R OR 5-20R outlets (one unswitched) rated for cur-
rent loads up to 15 amps or 20 amps at 120 volts.
Breaker – A resettable, thermal circuit breaker protects the unit from
current overloads. If the breaker trips check for a malfunction in equip-
ment plugged into the RX100. Also check to be certain the total current
requirement of the equipment plugged into the RX100 does not exceed
15 amps or 20 amps depending on the model.
The circuit breaker may be reset. Wait 30 seconds after the breaker
trips, turn off the main unit power switch and push the center button
on the breaker back into its original position. Then turn on the main
power switch.
INTERNAL PROTECTION COMPONENTS
The RX100 is one of the RX Series products which featured patented
Hybrid AC Filter technology to clean up both Normal Mode and Common
Mode noise without contaminating the ground. Normal Mode noise oc-
curs between the line and neutral leads of an electric power circuit.
Common Mode noise occurs between either the line or neutral and the
safety ground lead.
UL 1449 limits the amount of current that can pass between line and
safety ground to 0.5 milli amperes. This is called " leakage current". The
Hybrid AC Filter process control board, by using a differential trans-
former and capacitors, acts as a low pass, "line conditioning" filter
which performs in the same way as a series mode inductor. These com-
ponents, along with a capacitor between neutral and ground comprise

the foundation of the Hybrid AC Filter design which conditions in-
coming AC power, removing normal and common mode noise without
adversely affecting the ground line.
TROUBLESHOOTING
The RX100 is ruggedly designed and constructed from high quality
components to give years of dependable power for your equipment.
It requires neither maintenance nor adjustment. It is unlikely to mal-
function. However, there is one potential event to note:
The RX100 will not come on or turns itself off.
a. Check the status of the power supplied to the unit. If line
voltage exceeds 165 volts for 3 seconds protection circuitry will dis-
connect power to the AC power outputs. This will also occur if the
line and neutral leads are reversed or if there is no ground connec-
tion. Use a voltage meter and/or polarity tester to examine the
status of incoming power.
b. Check that the circuit breaker is not tripped and that the
current load on the unit does not exceed its rated 15 amp or 20 amp
capacity. If the breaker is tripped, remove sufficient current load to
reduce the total to no more than 15 amps or 20 amps (depending on
the RX100 model). Wait approximately 30 seconds after the tripping.
Turn off the main power switch and push in the circuit breaker but-
ton.
If an observed problem can not be remedied, particularly if the prob-
lem seems severe or dangerous, discontinue use of the RX100 and
contact Juice Goose directly.
REPAIR
Should your RX100 need service contact Juice Goose for assistance
and authorization to return the unit. PLEASE NOTE: a return au-
thorization number is required in order for the service personnel to
correctly and promptly identify, repair and return your unit. You may
obtain a Return Authorization Number by calling: 713-772-1404 or
sending email to [email protected].
