 WARNING

DO NOT ATTEMPT TO INSERT OR REMOVE ANY POWER CIRCUIT BREAKER 

WITH A REMOTE POWER RACKING SYSTEM (RPR-2) THAT IS NOT 

FUNCTIONING PROPERLY. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THIS WARNING COULD 

RESULT IN DEATH, SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE.

PLUGGING THE POWER SUPPLY CABLE OF THE POWER MODULE DIRECTLY 

INTO A WALL OUTLET VOIDS THE WARRANTY. THE POWER MODULE 

MUST BE PLUGGED INTO THE UPS SYSTEM ONLY. 

THE COUNTERWEIGHT CABLE IS MANUFACTURED WITH AN INFUSED 

LUBRICANT THAT MAY MIGRATE OUT AND DRIP DOWN ON THE BASE. 

THIS SHOULD SIMPLY BE WIPED UP.

Contact the Power Breaker Center (PBC) immediately by calling 

toll free (877) 276-9379. Normal business hours are 7:30 AM until 

4:30 PM, Monday through Friday, except for holidays. If the call is 

placed after or before normal business hours, you may leave a voice 

message. A Power Breaker Center representative will return your call 

within 24 hours (48 hours on holidays and weekends), determine the 

cause of the problem, and advise if any replacement components or 

modules are required to restore the Remote Power Racking System 

to normal operation.
If it is necessary to replace the Power Module, UPS system, or other 

components, the representative will initiate an express air shipment 

that typically arrives within 48 hours after the PBC representative 

contacts the customer. The representative will also convey any 

special instructions, if required, for return of the defective unit. The 

UPS unit must remain plugged in when not in use.
Upon receipt of the replacement equipment, inspect the container 

for any signs of damage or rough handling. Open the container and 

save all hardware and packing material. These materials as well 

as the shipping container will be used to repack and return the 

defective equipment to the PBC. A set of shipping instructions and a 

shipping label will be in the container. Be careful not to discard these 

items. There is no charge for the return shipment if packed in the 

original shipping container.
