Important Safety Instructions
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
This manual contains instructions and warnings that should be
followed during the installation, operation and storage of this
product. Failure to heed these instructions and warnings will void the
product warranty.
Important Warnings
• The PDU provides the convenience of multiple outlets, but DOES NOT provide surge or line
noise protection for connected equipment.
• The PDU is designed for indoor use only, in a controlled environment, away from excess
moisture, temperature extremes, conductive contaminants, dust or direct sunlight.
• Keep indoor ambient temperature between 32°F and 77°F (0°C and 25°C).
• The PDU must be installed by a qualified technician only.
• Do not attempt to mount the PDU to an insecure or unstable surface.
• Install in accordance with National Electrical Code standards. Be sure to use the proper
overcurrent protection for the installation, in accordance with the plug/equipment rating.
• Connect the PDU to an outlet that is in accordance with your local building codes and that is
adequately protected against excess currents, short circuits and earth faults.
• The electrical outlets supplying power to the equipment should be installed near the equipment
and easily accessible.
• Do not connect the PDU to an ungrounded outlet or to extension cords or adapters that
eliminate the connection to ground.
• Be sure to provide a local disconnect device on any models that are permanently installed
without a plug that is easily accessible.
• Never attempt to install electrical equipment during a thunderstorm.
• Individual equipment connected to the PDU should not draw more current than the individual
PDU’s outlet’s rating.
• The total load connected to the PDU must not exceed the maximum load rating for the PDU.
• Do not attempt to modify the PDU, input plugs or power cables.
• Do not drill into or attempt to open any part of the PDU housing. There are no user-serviceable
parts inside.
• Do not attempt to use the PDU if any part of it becomes damaged.
• Use of this equipment in life support applications where failure of this equipment can
reasonably be expected to cause the failure of the life support equipment or to significantly
affect its safety or effectiveness is not recommended.

Installation
1A
0U Rack Configuration. Attach the three mounting clips
supplied with the PDU to the rack enclosure using the
included hardware. The mounting clips should be attached
along a vertical plane at equidistant points which roughly
correspond to the center and ends of the PDU. The exact
mounting configuration may vary depending on the rack and
enclosure. If possible, use pre-existing mounting points within
the enclosure.
1B
Wall or Under-Counter Configuration. Attach the three
mounting clips supplied with the PDU to a wall or similar flat,
secure surface using the included hardware. The mounting
clips should be attached along a vertical or horizontal plane
at equidistant points which roughly correspond to the center
and ends of the PDU. If possible, use pre-existing mounting
points. WARNING: Do not attempt to mount the PDU with
the outlets facing downward; the mounting clips are not
designed to support the weight of the PDU in that
manner.
1C
0U Rack Configuration. Attach the included mounting
buttons to the PDU. Position the PDU as desired in the rack
enclosure, align the buttons with the rack mounting slots,
and slide the PDU into position. Go to step 3.
Note: Regardless of 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.
2
Attach the PDU to the mounting clips. Using an assistant,
place a rear corner of the PDU at an inside edge of the
mounting clips, pivot the PDU toward the alternate inside
edge and snap into place.
3
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).
4
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
(models PDUMV15 and PDUMV20 only).
5
Optional Installation (Models PDUMV20 and PDUV20).
The PDU includes an adapter that converts the L5-20P input
plug to a 5-20P input plug. The adapter is optional; the PDU
will work properly without connecting the adapter.
