EA-380D GREEN POWER SUPPLY
THE ENERGY-EFFICIENT PSU
Get the power you need and the low electric bill you want with Antec’s EA-380D Green! One of the most environmentally friendly power supplies on the planet, the EA-380D Green delivers 380 watts of reliable, continuous power while meeting the Bronze level of performance from 80® PLUS, the most widely recognized independent standard in power supply efficiency.
STANDARDS AND FEATURES
The EA-380D Green PSU is compatible with ATX12V v2.3 and EPS12V v2.91 specifications. This PSU features Universal Input, which automatically senses when you connect the power supply to any AC power source between 100 ~ 240V, eliminating the need to set a voltage switch. The EA-380D Green also features Active Power Factor Correction (Active PFC), which improves the power factor value of the PSU by altering the input current wave shape, helping to transmit energy across the grid.
SYSTEM PROTECTION
A variety of industrial-grade safety circuitry will help protect your computer: OVP (Over Voltage Protection), SCP (Short Circuit Protection), and OCP (Over Current Protection). Sometimes the PSU will “latch” into a protected shutdown state. This means that you will need to power off the PSU and clear the fault before it will function again. There are no user-replaceable fuses in your EA-380D Green.

80PLUS® BRONZE CERTIFICATION
80 PLUS® Bronze certification is among the highest independent standards in power supply efficiency. This allows the PSU to use less energy and generate less heat so it stays cooler, runs more quietly, and lasts longer. The EA-380D Green has been certified to be at least 82% efficient at a wide range of operating loads and will lower your operating costs while protecting the environment.
