How to install Tripp Lite PS615HG20AOEM

Installing the PS615HG20AOEM is straightforward and designed to integrate smoothly into clinical environments while maintaining safety standards. Begin by selecting a location that offers easy access to the outlets while keeping the power strip away from liquids, splash zones, and high-traffic areas to minimize trip hazards. Ensure the chosen surface or rack has adequate clearance for ventilation and heat dissipation, especially when multiple devices are in use.

Next, verify that the wall outlet or power source you intend to use is on a grounded, dedicated circuit appropriate for medical equipment. The 120V supply should be stable and free from frequent power interruptions to prevent device resets during critical procedures. Route the 15-foot cord along cable management pathways, avoiding pinch points or interference with wheels, pedals, or moving equipment.

Mounting is flexible: you can attach the strip to a rack, table, or pedestal according to your facility’s layout and workflow. If you’re mounting on a rack, follow the manufacturer’s guidance for secure attachment to maintain stability during equipment movement. When used on a table or pedestal, position the unit so that cables exit toward the rear or side to facilitate clean cable management and reduce clutter around patient-care areas.

Once installed, perform a practical check of all six outlets with a safe, representative load to confirm that power distribution is even and that no outlets exhibit overheating or arcing signs. If your facility employs power conditioning or surge protection requirements, verify compatibility with the PS615HG20AOEM and integrate it into your broader electrical protection plan. Finally, establish a routine inspection cadence to confirm continued compliance with UL 1363A standards and to catch any wear or damage early.

Routine maintenance is minimal but important. Periodically inspect the cord for signs of wear, ensure the outlets are free from debris, and confirm that the unit remains accessible and free from obstructions. Train clinicians and support staff on proper use, including not daisy-chaining multiple power strips, avoiding overloading individual outlets, and using this device exclusively for medical-grade equipment in patient-care vicinity settings.
