If you are mounting the PM IPDU, obtain a Phillips screwdriver and appropriate nuts and bolts
before starting the following procedure.

NOTE: When mounting a Cyclades PM IPDU zero U model to a wall stud, securely mount it by using a #10 or
larger screw or use a drywall fastener rated min. 25 lb. (11.34 kg).

The following graphics depict the orientation of the brackets for front rack mounting PM IPDU.

Recommendation

Temperature

The manufacturer's maximum recommended ambient temperature for the
Cyclades PM IPDU is 122 ºF (50 ºC).

Elevated Operating Ambient
Temperature

If the Cyclades PM IPDU is installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly,
the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment may be greater
than room ambient temperature. Therefore, consideration should be given
to installing the equipment in an environment compatible with the
manufacturer’s maximum rated ambient temperature. See above.

Reduced Air Flow

Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that the amount of air
flow required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised.

Mechanical Loading

Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such that a hazardous
condition is not achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.

Circuit Overloading

Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the
supply circuit and the effect that overloading of circuits might have on
overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of
equipment nameplate ratings should be used when addressing
this concern.
