Introduction
The Line-R automatically corrects brownouts (by boosting low voltage) and over voltages (by stepping down high voltage) from the power utility service to levels that are safe for computers, as well as other sensitive equipment. APC’s Line-R provides the highest degree of protection from line voltage sags and swells, and has been designed for many years of reliable, maintenance-free service.
Applications
CAUTION: The total power consumption of all equipment plugged into the Line-R must not exceed the “Maximum Output Power Capacity” rating listed in the Specifications table. A total load in excess of this rating will cause the power switch/circuit breaker to “trip”.
The Line-R is designed for use with voltage sensitive equipment such as a: computer, monitor, inkjet printer, scanner or fax. It is also designed for use with home electronics (TVs, stereos, CD players, etc.).
Appliances not suitable for use with the Line-R are items such as refrigerators, freezers, power tools, air conditioners, dehumidifiers, blenders, or any device that employs an AC motor for operation. Not for use with life sustaining equipment and any device with a power requirement exceeding the “Maximum Output Power Capacity” rating listed in the Specifications table.
Features
- Lights when input voltage is high.
- Flashes when input voltage is above rated Input Voltage Range.
- Input voltage is normal.
- Lights when input voltage is low.
- Flashes when input voltage is below rated Input Voltage Range.
- ON/OFF Power Switch/Circuit Breaker applies and removes power to/from the Line-R. This switch also functions as a circuit breaker in the event of an over-load condition.
ON/OFF Power Switch/Circuit Breaker
he Line-R provides an ON/OFF power switch/circuit breaker which functions as the master power switch for the Line-R and all devices connected to the device. It also functions as a circuit breaker to protect the unit from being overloaded. If the circuit breaker “trips”, unplug the last device connected to the unit, turn the power switch/circuit breaker to the OFF position, place the power switch/circuit breaker to the ON position.
Installation
- Placement – Please install the Line-R in a protected environment free of excessive dust, mechanical vibration, inflammable gases and explosive or corrosive atmospheres.
- Do not block the top or side air vents on the unit. Allow 1 inch (2.5 cm) minimum vent clearance.
- Select Input Voltage – The Line-R provides a three-position User Selectable Voltage Switch for adjusting the input voltage for the region where it is being used (example: Mexico -127V, United States – 120V, or Jamaica – 110V). Slide the switch to select the proper voltage for your location.
- Plug the Line-R into Wall Outlet – Plug the Line-R into a grounded AC wall outlet. If the Building Wiring Fault Indicator is lit, the building wiring presents a potential shock hazard and should be serviced by a qualified electrician before putting this device into service. The Line-R should only be used in buildings having proper grounding, with conductors protected by fuses or circuit breakers.
- Connect Your Equipment – Plug equipment into the Line-R rear-panel outlets and switch the equipment ON. The equipment will not be powered until the Line-R is switched ON.
CAUTION: The total power consumption of all equipment plugged into the Line-R must not exceed the ratings listed in the Specifications table below. A total load in excess of the listed ratings will cause the ON/OFF power switch/circuit breaker to “trip”. - Switch ON the Line-R – Press the front panel ON/OFF power switch/circuit breaker to the ON (l) position. This switch may be used as the master ON/OFF switch for the device and all equipment connected to the unit.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
- Does APC UPS have voltage regulator?
With the help of the APC Line-R automated voltage regulator, you can safeguard your delicate electronic equipment from brownouts and over voltages. - What is a line voltage regulator?
A line voltage regulator makes distribution networks “smarter” by automatically adjusting the voltage to a consistent level. It also permits a bigger inflow of renewable energy. - How does an AVR regulate voltage?
A line voltage regulator automates the voltage adjustment to a constant level, making distribution networks “smarter”. Additionally, it enables a greater influx of renewable energy. - Do I still need AVR if I have UPS?
No, UPS stands for uninterruptible power supply. This means that you don’t require an AVR if you have UPS. - How many watts input is this designed to handle?
The APC Product Manual states that it can take up to 1200 watts. 10-amps of rated amperage are available with a switch that can be set for 110, 120, or 127 volts. - How many outlets does it have?
It has 4 outlets on the backside. - Would this be a solution to my laser printer and its power bursts?
Yes, if it is within its wattage or power limits. - Does this make any noise while plugged in?
It absolutely emits that 60Hz hum that outdoor power transformers emit when under a 7-amp load. Even while it isn’t loud, it can definitely be heard through walls. - Should i turn it off every time i use it? what happen if i keep it on?
You can leave it as that won’t cause any harm to it. - Can I use this with a 220v equipment?
No, it can’t be used with a 220V equipment.
