Three-Phase Rack PDU — Installation and Operation Manual i
Product Description and Inventory
Description
Inventory
This manual provides information on installing and operating three Rack
PDUs (AP7601, AP7602, and AP7608), which mount vertically in the
rear channel of an APC NetShelter VX Enclosure.
Each of these PDUs has a sensor that measures the current being used by
the PDU and its attached devices. The display interface shows the
aggregate current of an individual phase. An alarm occurs if the
aggregate current is above the high threshold value or below the low
threshold values that you configure. These PDUs have the following
plugs and outlets:
PDU Plug Number and Type of Outlets
AP7601 L21-20 42 NEMA 5-20R
AP7602 L21-20 21 NEMA 5-20R and 6 L6-20R
AP7608 L21-20 42 IEC-320-C13
Description Part Number Quantity
Serial cable 940-0144 1
Hardware end cap 870-70803 1
Hardware access cover 870-70804 1
Note: Bracket kits (AR8116BLK) are available for Rack PDUs.

How to Install the Rack PDUs
Installation guidelines
Mounting options
• If the PDU is installed in an enclosed communications rack, the
recommended maximum ambient temperature should be no greater
than 45°C.
• Install the PDU so that the amount of air flow required for safe
operation of the equipment is not compromised.
• Install the PDU so that there is not an uneven mechanical load.
• Follow the nameplate ratings when connecting equipment to the
supply circuit. Take into consideration the effect that overloading
the circuits might have on over-circuit protection and supply
wiring.
• Maintain reliable earthing of the PDU. Give particular
consideration to supply connects that do not directly connect to the
branch circuit.
• Install the PDU so that the power plug may be disconnected for
service.
You can install Rack PDUs in one of two ways: using toolless mounting
pegs or the mounting brackets. The Rack PDU mounts in the rear of the
enclosure, in the channel directly behind the rear vertical mounting rails.
Before you begin to install the Rack PDUs, choose a location in the
enclosure and decide on the mounting method.

How to Install the Rack PDUs
Toolless mounting
1. Slide the mounting pegs into the holes provided in the channel in
the rear panel of the enclosure. Make sure the bottom pegs slide
into the bottom holes in the enclosure.
2. Snap the Rack PDU into place by pushing it downward until it
locks into position.
