Installation

Note: Regardless of installation configuration, the user must determine the fitness of hardware and procedures before mounting. The PDU and included hardware are designed for a common rack and rack enclosure types and may not be appropriate for all applications. Exact mounting configurations may vary.

Mount the PDU.

Option A: Vertical (0U) Rack Mounting with Toolless Mounting Buttons
Insert the PDU’s toolless mounting buttons into the rack’s toolless mounting slots and slide the PDU downward to lock it into place. You can either use the toolless mounting buttons at the rear of the PDU or at the side of the PDU, depending on the desired orientation of the outlets. Note: If you need toolless mounting buttons on the side, use a screwdriver to remove the toolless mounting buttons and reattach them on the side.

Option B: Surface Mounting with Standard Brackets
Mount the PDU to a wall or under a counter by inserting four user-supplied screws through the brackets and into appropriate mounting holes. Make sure the mounting surface and screws are capable of supporting the combined weight of the PDU and any attached equipment cords. Note: If you need to change the orientation of the PDU, use a screwdriver to remove the mounting brackets, rotate them in 90° increments as required and reattach them before mounting. If the toolless mounting buttons obstruct the planned mounting orientation, use a screwdriver to remove them and retain them for future use.

Connect the PDU to a grounded outlet.

Insert the plug directly into a properly grounded AC outlet.

Connect Equipment to the PDU.

Be careful not to exceed the load rating for each outlet or the total load rating for the PDU.

Features

Circuit Breaker: If the current drawn by the equipment connected to the PDU exceeds the Maximum Load Rating, the circuit breaker will trip to prevent possible damage. When the circuit breaker trips, its plunger will pop up. Disconnect excess equipment and allow the breaker to cool at least one minute before depressing the plunger to reset the breaker.

Grounding Lug: Use this screw to connect the PDU to the ground.
