Installation
Note: The illustrations may differ somewhat from
your PDU model.
Determine Installation Configuration. The PDU
supports four primary installation configurations: 1U
Rack, 0U Rack, Wall and Under-Counter. Choose a
configuration and follow the installation instructions
in the appropriate section of Step 1 before proceeding
to Step 2.
Note: Regardless of installation 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.
1U Rack Installation. Attach the PDU to the rack
by inserting four user-supplied screws (A) through the
PDU mounting brackets (B) and into the mounting
holes of the rack rail as shown.
0U Rack Installation. Part 1: Remove the screws
(C) attaching the mounting brackets to the PDU,
change the orientation of the brackets as shown and
reattach the brackets. Use only the screws supplied by
the manufacturer or their exact equivalent (#6-32,
1/4” flat head). Part 2: Attach the PDU vertically by inserting
two or more user-supplied screws (A) through the PDU
mounting brackets (B) and into mounting points in the rack or
rack enclosure.
Wall Installation. After repeating Part 1 above, attach the
PDU to a stable mounting surface by inserting two or more
user-supplied screws (A) through the PDU mounting brackets
(B) and into secure mounting points on the mounting surface.
Under-Counter Installation. After repeating Part 1
above, attach the PDU to a stable mounting surface by
inserting four user-supplied screws (A) through the PDU
mounting brackets (B) and into secure mounting points on the
mounting surface.
Attach the input plug of the PDU to a grounded outlet. Insert the plug directly into a
grounded outlet that does not share a circuit with a heavy electrical load (such as an air
conditioner or refrigerator).
Note: Select models include an input plug adapter that converts the twist-lock input plug to
a straight-blade input plug. Attach the input plug adapter to the input plug if you wish to plug
the PDU into a compatible straight-blade outlet.
Attach equipment to the PDU. Do not exceed the load rating of the PDU. The total
electrical current used by the PDU will be displayed on the digital meter in amperes.
