How to install Raritan PX3 36-Outlets PDU

• Prepare the rack: Ensure the chosen rack location has adequate ventilation and airflow. Verify that the rack’s rated load can support the combined power requirements of connected devices and the PDU itself.
• Mount the PDU: Align the PX3 with the 19" rack rails and secure it using the appropriate screws for your rack type. Confirm that the PDU sits securely and remains level, with no strain on cables.
• Connect the inlet power: Plug the NEMA L6-30P input cord into a compatible L6-30R receptacle or power distribution path supplied by your data center. Ensure the corresponding circuit breaker is sized to support the expected load of connected devices.
• Route and manage cables: Route C13 and C19 cables neatly to minimize cable clutter and maximize airflow. Use cable ties or Velcro straps to bundle cords and avoid blocking cooling paths.
• Power up and verify: Turn on the main power and verify that all outlets are delivering power as devices are connected. Label outlets to map each receptacle to its corresponding equipment for easy management and troubleshooting.
