RX100-RM
Hybrid AC Power Filter
and
Surge Suppressor

FEATURES SUMMARY
RX100-RM features include:
* Less than 1 volt surge potential between neutral and ground
* Less than 10 volt surge potential between neutral and line
* Over voltage and wiring fault shut down
* An all steel Tour Class(tm) chassis
* Eleven 120 volt power outputs
* Fifteen amp, 1200 watt current rating
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
The RX100-RM is designed to operate with 120VAC, 60 Hz. Opera-
tion with 220 or 240 volts will damage the unit and possibly
cause personal injury.
CAUTIONS
1. The RX100-RM 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-RM.
Do not attempt service yourself. Contact Juice Goose as directed in
this manual if service is required.
3. Do not expose the RX100-RM 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-RM
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-RM is on.
Light Connector –A BNC style connector is located on the left side of
the chassis and will accommodate a 12 volt AC gooseneck type work
light such as the style manufactured by CAE under the brand name
“Littlite”. (The light is not included with the RX100-RM.)
Light Control Switch –When this switch is in the “Up” position it will
activate power to the light connector.
Indicator Lights
TBF Protection –This green light indicates the RX100-RM protec-
tion circuit is functioning and the main AC power source is correct.
Wiring Fault –In the event of continuous high voltage or incor-
rect wiring of the line, neutral or ground leads supplying the RX100-RM,
the unit will disconnect equipment plugged into it. The green light will be
OFF and the red Wiring Fault indicator will light.
REAR PANEL
AC Outlets –These eleven outlets (NEMA 5-15R) are rated for current
loads up to 15 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-RM. Also check to be certain the total cur-
rent requirement of the equipment plugged into the RX100-RM does not
exceed 15 amps.
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-RM is one of the RX Series products which feature PoweRX
AC power protection. PoweRX protection uses a new, patented Trans-
former Based Filter TM technology to clean up both Normal Mode and
Common Mode noise without contaminating the ground. Normal Mode
noise occurs between the line and neutral leads of an electric power cir-
cuit. 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

Transformer Based Filter process control board, by using a differen-
tial transformer and capacitors, acts as a low pass, "line condition-
ing" filter which performs in the same way as a series mode induc-
tor. These components, along with a capacitor between neutral and
ground comprise the foundation of the Transformer Based Filter de-
sign which conditions incoming AC power, removing normal and com-
mon mode noise without adversely affecting the ground line.
TROUBLESHOOTING
The RX100-RM is ruggedly designed and constructed from high qual-
ity components to give years of dependable power for your equip-
ment. It requires neither maintenance nor adjustment. It is unlikely to
malfunction. However, there is one potential event to note:
The RX100-RM 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. Use a voltage meter and/or po-
larity 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 capacity. If
the breaker is tripped, remove sufficient current load to reduce the
total to no more than 15 amps, wait approximately 30 seconds after
the tripping, turn off the main power switch and push in the circuit
breaker button.
If an observed problem can not be remedied, particularly if the prob-
lem seems severe or dangerous, discontinue use of the RX100-RM
and contact Juice Goose directly.
