Note: Regardless of installation configuration, the user

 

 

 

 

 

 

A

must determine the fitness of hardware and procedures

1-2

 

 

 

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.

1-11U Rack Installation. Attach the PDU to the rack

1-3

 

 

 

by inserting four user-supplied screws (A) through the

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

PDU mounting brackets (B) and into the mounting

A

 

 

 

 

reattach the brackets. Use only the screws supplied by

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

the manufacturer or their exact equivalent (#6-32,

 

 

 

 

1/4” flat head). Part 2: Attach the PDU vertically by inserting

 

 

 

two or more user-supplied screws (A) through the PDU

 

 

 

mounting brackets (B) and into mounting points in the rack or

 

 

 

rack enclosure.

 

 

 

 

1-3Wall Installation. After repeating Part 1 above, attach the

PDU to a stable mounting surface by inserting two or more

 

 

 

user-supplied screws (A) through the PDU mounting brackets

 

 

 

(B) and into secure mounting points on the mounting surface.

 

 

 

1-4

Under-Counter Installation. After repeating

Part 1

 

 

 

above, attach the PDU to a stable mounting surface by

 

 

 

inserting four user-supplied screws (A) through the PDU

3

 

 

mounting brackets (B) and into secure mounting points on the

 

 

 

 

 

mounting surface.

 

 

 

 

2Attach the input plug of the PDU to a grounded outlet. Insert the plug directly into a grounded outlet that does not share a circuit with a heavy electrical load (such as an air conditioner or refrigerator).

Note: Select models include an input plug adapter that converts the twist-lock input plug to a straight-blade input plug. Attach the input plug adapter to the input plug if you wish to plug the PDU into a compatible straight-blade outlet.

3Attach equipment to the PDU. Do not exceed the load rating of the PDU. The total electrical current used by the PDU will be displayed on the digital meter in amperes.
