HE ENERGY-EFFICIENT
Get more power and lower your electric bill with the new EarthWatts Green series! One of the
most environmentally-friendly power supplies available, the EarthWatts EA-750 Green
efficiently delivers 750 Watts of reliable Continuous Power while meeting the Bronze level of
efficiency from 80 PLUS®, the most widely recognized independent standard in power supply
efficiency. On top of that, this EarthWatts power supply offers Universal Input to automatically
work on any power grid on the planet, and a 135 mm double ball bearing fan to keep cool.

TANDARDS AND FEATURES
The EA-750 Green PSU is compatible with ATX12V v2.3 and EPS12V v2.91 specifications. This PSU
features Universal Input, which automatically senses when you connect the power supply to any AC
power source between 100 ~ 240V, eliminating the need to set a voltage switch. The EA-750 Green also
features Active Power Factor Correction (Active PFC), which improves the power factor value of the PSU
by altering the input current wave shape, helping to transmit energy across the grid.

YSTEM PROTECTION
REEN POWER SUPPLY
PSU
A variety of industrial-grade safety circuitry will help protect your computer: OCP (Over Current
Protection), OVP (Over Voltage Protection), SCP (Short Circuit Protection), OPP (Over Power Protection)
OTP (Over Temperature Protection) and SIP (Surge & Inrush Protection). Sometimes the PSU will “latch”
into a protected shutdown state. This means that you will need to power off the PSU and clear the fault
before it will function again. There are no user-replaceable fuses in your EA-750 Green.
80 PLUS® B
80 PLUS® Bronze certification is among the highest
independent standards in power supply efficiency. This
allows the PSU to use less energy and generate less heat
so it stays cooler, runs more quietly, and lasts longer. The
EA-750 Green has been certified to be at least 82%
efficient at a wide range of operating loads and will
lower your operating costs while protecting the
environment.

+12 V
The EA-750 Green PSU uses quad +12 volt power rails. Different connectors are hooked up to separate
circuits to aid in the balanced distribution of power between devices in your computer. The +12V rails
have been assigned to different connectors, as shown in Table 2, to prevent voltage sags in one device
due to sudden demands for power by another device.
