Yes, it includes integrated overvoltage protection to safeguard connected equipment.

What is the length of the power cord?

Can I use standard UK or EU plugs with this PDU?

No, this PDU uses Type D outlets. You will need to use appropriate plug adapters for other plug types such as UK (Type G) or EU (Type C/F).

What is the warranty period for this product?

Warranty information should be confirmed with the retailer or Rittal directly, as it can vary by region and vendor.

What does EMI filtering do?

EMI (Electromagnetic Interference) filtering helps to reduce electrical noise and interference, providing cleaner power to sensitive electronic devices.

Troubleshooting

No power to connected devices

Verify the PDU is securely plugged into a live power outlet. Check if the circuit breaker on the PDU (if applicable) has tripped. Ensure the connected devices are functioning and their plugs are fully inserted into the PDU outlets.

Intermittent power or flickering lights

Check the main power cord connection for tightness. Inspect the power cord for any visible damage. Ensure the total power draw of connected devices does not exceed the PDU's 16A maximum capacity. Consider if EMI or surge issues are present and if the filters/protection are functioning.

Connected device not receiving clean power (e.g., electronic noise)

Ensure the EMI filter is functioning. Try connecting the device directly to the power source to rule out issues with the device itself. If the problem persists, the PDU's filtering may be insufficient for highly sensitive equipment.

Adapter required for plugs

This PDU uses Type D outlets. If your equipment uses a different plug type (e.g., Type C, G, F, or others), you will need to use compatible plug adapters. Ensure adapters are rated for the appropriate current and voltage.
