  • PD8: Eight (8) individually fused outputs (fuses are rated @ 3.5A; up to 5A fuses may be used).
  • PD8CB: Eight (8) PTC protected auto-resettable outputs (PTCs are rated @ 2.5A).
  • Surge suppression.

Main Fuse Ratings:

  • The main fuse is rated @ 5A/250V.

  • Power the ON / OFF switch.

Board Dimensions (L x W x H, approximate): 5.25” x 3.25” x 1” (133.4mm x 82.6mm x 25.4mm).

Installation Instructions:

  1. Mount PD8/PD8CB in the desired location/enclosure (mounting hardware included).

  2. Connect the desired power supply output to terminals marked [INPUT] (Fig. 1a).
    Note: If using DC voltage, the left terminal is NEG. (–) and the right terminal is POS. (+) (Fig. 1a).

  3. Measure output voltage before connecting devices. This helps avoid potential damage. All terminals with the common suffix P “1P, 2P…” are the same polarity.

  4. Set the power switch [SW1] to the OFF position.

  5. Connect each device to the terminal pairs 1 to 8, marked [1P – 1N] through [8P – 8N].

  6. PD8 output fuses are rated at 3.5A/250V (Replacement fuses can be rated at up to 5.0A).
