Important Safety Instructions

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

This manual contains instructions and warnings that should be followed during the installation, operation, and storage of this product. Failure to heed these instructions and warnings will void the product warranty.

The PDU provides convenient multiple outlets, but it DOES NOT provide surge or line noise protection for connected equipment.

The PDU is designed for indoor use only in a controlled environment away from excess moisture, temperature extremes, conductive contaminants, dust or direct sunlight.

Do not connect the PDU to an ungrounded outlet or to extension cords or adapters that eliminate the connection to ground.

The power requirement for each piece of equipment connected to the PDU must not exceed the individual outlet’s load rating.

The total power requirement for equipment connected to the PDU must not exceed the maximum load rating for the PDU.

Do not drill into or attempt to open any part of the PDU housing. There are no user-serviceable parts inside.

Do not attempt to modify the PDU, including the input plugs and power cables.

Do not attempt to use the PDU if any part of it becomes damaged.

Do not attempt to mount the PDU to an insecure or unstable surface.

Never attempt to install electrical equipment during a thunderstorm.

Use of this equipment in life support applications where failure of this equipment can reasonably be expected to cause the failure of the life support equipment or to significantly affect its safety or effectiveness is not recommended. Do not use this equipment in the presence of a flammable anesthetic mixture with air, oxygen or nitrous oxide.

Installation

Mounting the PDU

The PDU supports five primary mounting configurations: 1U Rack, 0U Rack (Vertical), Wall, Under- Counter and Reduced-Depth.

Note: Regardless of configuration, the user must determine the fitness of hardware and procedures before mounting. The PDU and included hardware are designed for common rack and rack enclosure types and may not be appropriate for all applications. Exact mounting configurations may vary. Screws for attaching the mounting brackets and cord retention shelf to the PDU are included. Use only the screws supplied by the manufacturer, or their exact equivalent (#6-32, ¼" flat head).

1-11U Rack Mounting: Use 4 screws A to attach each of the 2 longer mounting brackets B to the PDU as shown. You can mount the PDU in a recessed position by attaching the mounting brackets so they extend beyond the front panel of the PDU. (If you plan to use the cord retention shelf, attach the mounting brackets in a recessed position.) Mount the PDU in the rack by inserting 4 user-supplied screws C through the mounting brackets D and into the mounting holes of the rack rails.
