INTRODUCTION
ETA Systems’ line of Conditioned Power Distribution Units are designed to prevent electrical damage to sensitive electronic equipment
from high amplitude/short duration spikes, random surges, and EMI/RFI noise, which is inherent in utility power lines. Power line
sources which are not preconditioned or filtered can affect reliable operation of sensitive audio, computer, and other electronic
equipment, and may cause premature failure, expensive repairs, or unanticipated replacement from non-repairable damage.
As inherent problems in utility AC power lines increase for various reasons, and the need for noise-free, conditioned power increases,
ETA is there with the units to protect your valuable electronic equipment. With present demands on the power utilities, voltage spikes,
power surges, electrical noise, and power failures are commonplace. This “garbage” in the power delivered can reduce the fidelity of
audio systems, cause premature failure, or result in extensive damage or destruction of electronic equipment. ETA Conditioned Power
Distribution units feature a master power switch, conveniently located on the front control panel, that switches the rear panel AC
outlets ON and OFF. An LED next to the master power switch indicates the power conditioning circuitry is working and the rear panel
AC outlets are powered. Maximum total wattage input is 1800 watts and the 8 power output receptacles are protected with a 15 amp
(total unit) resettable circuit breaker.
Note: The front panel LED is normally lit when the power switch is in the ON position. If the power switch is ON and the LED
is not lit, power may still be present on the output AC receptacles, but the power conditioning circuitry is not working. Do
not continue use of the power conditioning unit and refer trouble-shooting to a qualified electronic technician or contact ETA
Customer Service for assistance.
EASY INSTALLATION
The PD8 and PD8L are easily mounted into a standard 19" rack or placed into a free-standing position. With the PD master power
switch in the OFF position, plug the line cord into a convenient AC receptacle. Place the power switch into the ON position and check
that the front panel LED is lit. The lit LED indicates conditioned and filtered AC power is connected. Then, with their master power
switches in the OFF position, plug the equipment to be protected into the Power Distribution Unit’s rear panel AC receptacles. Turn ON
the power switches of the equipment plugged into the ETA Power Distribution Unit.
