Connections and Installation
Operating
Environment
• Locate PDU in dry area.
• Rack Mount in equipment rack using mounting brackets.
• Restricted Access Location not required.
• This PDU relies on protective devices in the building installation
for short circuit and over current protection.
• Elevated Operating Ambient- If installed in a closed or multi-unit
rack assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack
environment may be greater than room ambient. Therefore,
consideration should be given to installing the equipment in an
environment compatible with the maximum ratings of the product.
• Reduced Air Flow- Installation of the equipment should be such
that the amount of airflow required for safe operation of the
equipment is not compromised.
• Mechanical Loading- Mounting of the equipment in the rack should
be such that a hazardous condition is not achieved due to uneven
mechanical loading.
• Circuit Overloading- Consideration should be given to the
connection of the equipment to the supply circuit and the effect
that overloading the circuits might have on over current protection
and supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment
nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this concern.
• Reliable earthing of equipment should be maintained. Particular
attention should be given to supply connections other than direct
connections to the branch circuit (e.g. use of power strips).
