How to Install the Rack PDU

Installation guidelines

• For a Rack PDU installed in an enclosed communications rack, the

recommended maximum ambient temperature is 45° C (113º F).

• Install the Rack PDU so that it does not reduce the air flow

required for safe operation of the equipment.

• Install the Rack PDU so that there is an even mechanical load.
• Follow the nameplate ratings when connecting equipment to the

supply circuit. Avoid overloading the circuits, which could affect
over-circuit protection and supply wiring.

• Maintain reliable earthing of the Rack PDU, especially supply-

connections that do not directly connect to the branch circuit.

• Install the Rack PDU so that the power plug is accessible to be

disconnected for service.

Attach the cord
retention tray

Attach the cord retention tray to the Rack PDU, using four flat-head
screws (provided) per tray.

Additional cord
retention tray (optional)

Attach a second cord retention tray to the PDU, with the cord retainers
facing down.

Note

Mount an additional cord retention tray to secure cords
from the top bank of outlets. Purchase additional tray kits
from APC (AP9569).
