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).  
 
Consult the local electrical code for additional information.
