• The PDU provides the convenience of multiple outlets, but 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.
• Keep indoor ambient temperature between 32°F and 104°F (0°C and 40°C).
• The PDU must be installed by a qualified technician only.
• Do not attempt to mount the PDU to an insecure or unstable surface.
• Install in accordance with National Electrical Code standards. Be sure to use the proper overcurrent protection for the installation, in accordance with the plug/ equipment rating.
• Connect the PDU to an outlet that is in accordance with your local building codes and that is adequately protected against excess currents, short circuits and earth faults.
• The electrical outlets supplying power to the equipment should be installed near the equipment and easily accessible.
• Do not connect the PDU to an ungrounded outlet or to extension cords or adapters that eliminate the connection to ground.
• Be sure to provide a local disconnect device on any models that are permanently installed without a plug that is easily accessible.
• Never attempt to install electrical equipment during a thunderstorm.
• Individual equipment connected to the PDU should not draw more current than the individual PDU’s outlet’s rating.
• The total load connected to the PDU must not exceed the maximum load rating for the PDU.
• Do not attempt to modify the PDU, input plugs or power cables.
• Do not drill into or attempt to open any part of the PDU housing. There are no userserviceable parts inside.
• Do not attempt to use the PDU if any part of it becomes damaged.
• 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.

Installation

Mounting the PDU

Caution! Before mounting the PDU, ensure that a compatible, easily accessible and properly grounded AC outlet is available in the location.

The PDU supports two mounting configurations: 2U Rack and Under-Counter.
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 shelves to the PDU are included. Use only the screws supplied by the manufacturer, or their exact equivalent (#8-32, 3/8″ flat head screw for mounting bracket and #6-32, ¼” flat head screw for cord retention shelves).

2U Rack Mounting: Attach the included brackets to the sides of the PDU (STEP ) with the included screws. After installing the brackets, position the PDU in the rack and install four user-supplied screws through the unit’s brackets (STEP ) and into the rack rails as shown.

Under-Counter Mounting : Use 4 included screws to attach each of the 2 mounting brackets to the PDU as shown. Mount the PDU under the counter by inserting 2 or more user-supplied screws through the mounting brackets and into secure mounting points.

Cord Retention Shelves Attachment (Optional): Use included screws A to attach the cord retention shelves B to the top and bottom of the front panel of the PDU as shown.

Installation

Connecting the PDU

Plug the PDU into a Compatible Electrical Outlet: (120V L5-30R for Model PDUMH30NET; 208/230V L6-30R for Models PDUMH30HVNET & PDUMH30HV19NET; IEC 309 2P + E for Model PDUMH32HVNET).

Connect Equipment to the PDU’s Output Receptacles: Plug equipment into the NEMA 5-15/20R (Model PDUMH30NET), IEC 60320 C13 (Models PDUMH30HVNET & PDUMH32HVNET) or IEC 60320 C13 & C19 (Model PDUMH30HV19NET) output receptacles of the PDU. The LED near each output receptacle will illuminate when the receptacle is ready to distribute live AC power.
The digital load meter may be set with the switch to display in amps the PDU’s total connected load (all outlets), or the load carried by either the upper or lower bank of outlet receptacles. When the total connected load display is selected, both of the green LEDs to the right of the display will illuminate. When the top bank display is selected, only the top LED will illuminate; when the bottom bank display is selected, only the bottom LED will illuminate.

Cord Retention (Optional): If you attached the cord retention shelves (STEP ), use them to secure equipment power cords. Attach each cord to the retention shelf by looping the cord and securing it to an attachment point with one of the included cable ties. Make sure that each equipment power cord can be unplugged from the PDU without removing the cable tie.

Cord Retention (Optional): If you attached the cord retention shelves (STEP ), use them to secure equipment power cords. Attach each cord to the retention shelf by looping the cord and securing it to an attachment point with one of the included cable ties. Make sure that each equipment power cord can be unplugged from the PDU without removing the cable tie.

Installation

Networking the PDU

For network configuration instructions, please refer to the WEBCARDLX owner’s manual (PN 93358E) included with this product.

Features

Output Receptacles: These receptacles distribute AC power to connected equipment. When a receptacle is live, the associated green LED is illuminated.

Primary AC Input Power Cord: Connect the input plug to a compatible AC power outlet. The cord is permanently attached to the PDU.

Digital Load Meter (Ammeter): The digital load meter displays the load in amps. It may be set using the Meter Select switch to display the PDU’s total connected load (all 16 outlets-both LEDs illuminated), or the load carried by either the upper bank (Bank 1 LED illuminated) or lower bank (Bank 2 LED illuminated) of 8 outlet receptacles. For models with SNMP Network Card installed, press and hold the switch to display the IP address of the SNMP card in the PDU.

Features

Output Circuit Breakers: Two circuit breakers (one per outlet bank) protect connected equipment against dangerous system overloads. If the total load on either of the PDU’s outlet banks exceeds 20 amps (PDUMH30NET & PDUMH32HVNET) or 15 amps (PDUMH30HVNET), the associated circuit breaker will trip, cutting power to the entire outlet bank. Reduce the load on the outlet bank by unplugging some equipment, then press the circuit breaker in/set to the ON position to restore power.

Cord Retention Shelves (Optional): When installed on the PDU, these shelves provide secure attachment points for connected equipment power cords. Use the included cable ties to secure cords to the shelf.

C14 Plug-Lock Insert Sleeve (Optional): Use the included plastic sleeves to secure C13 power cords to C14 inlets. Fit the sleeve over the end of the cord, making sure the pull-tabs remain outside the cord and the fit is secure. To unplug equipment properly, grip both the cord and the insert’s tabs at the same time and pull.

C20 Plug-Lock Insert Sleeve (Optional): Use the included plastic sleeves to secure C19 power cords to C20 inlets. Fit the sleeve over the end of the cord, making sure the pull-tabs remain outside the cord and the fit is secure. To unplug equipment properly, grip both the cord and the insert’s tabs at the same time and pull.

Mounting Brackets: These detachable brackets enable the PDU to be installed in a 2U rackmount configuration or an under-counter configuration.

Factory Port: The port is reserved for configuration by factory authorized personnel only. Do not connect anything to the port.

Ground Connection: Use this to connect any equipment that requires a chassis ground.

WEBCARDLX: Allows you to operate this PDU as a managed network device, accessible via SNMP network management platform, web browser, SSH or Telnet.
