Introduction

The PD-4A is a 19" Rack Mount Redundant Power Centre with the ability to supply multiple 12V power outputs from a 100-240V AC Input or DC-12V/25A terminal.

The PD-4A redundant power supply unit protects your power system against unforeseen events by supplying power to devices the instant they begin to fail. The PD-4A is an essential accessory for Datavideo Mobile Studio applications, together with the Video switcher, LCD, recorders and etc, the PD-4A makes the integration of a Mobile Studio easier and more professional.

The built-in time delay power on control initiates each DC output terminal in sequence, and each terminal is installed with an auto-recover fuse to safely protect every connected working device.

Features

• Power supply up to 384 Watts for most production requirements
  • Power indicator and auto-recovery fuse protection for each output terminal
• Sequential Power On for each DC output terminal by 1 second duration
• Switchable AC 110/220V or DC 12V input source (110V and 220V devices are different models)
• Provides safety net AC and DC protections to prevent power loss
  • Eco-Friendly by complying with Safety / EMI and RoHS certification
• Chassis ground terminal
• Embedded four units of heat sink fan design
  • Built-in abnormal warning buzzer

On / Off Switch

Powers the PD-4A On / Off when using AC Power.

Note: The On / Off Switch is not functional if the power input is DC.

AC In with built-in fuse

AC Inlet for connecting to suitable mains power outlet - 100-240VAC. The socket contains a fuse holder with a 6.3A/250V fuse.

AC INPUT LED indicator

L (LEFT AC Input) / R (RIGHT AC Input)

• Green: Good AC Input and DC output power

Power Source Input Select (AUTO / AC)

The Input select switch can be set to AC or AUTO depending on the power input that you intend to use.

AUTO: When DC power (12V) converted from AC input drops below 9.5V, the external DC input will start supplying current to DC outputs until its alternative rises above 11.3V.

AC: The DC outputs are supplied by DC power (12V) converted from AC input.

DC Input (Euro Type Terminal)

The PD-4A can be powered from a suitable 12V power source. When working from DC the PD-4A will not regulate the power outlets.

Please ensure that the 12V power source that you use is regulated. If you intend to run the PD-4A from a car or van power outlet make sure that a suitable regulator is used on the power feed.

LED Indicator

Green: DC input LED indicator

Blinking Red: Internal ambient temperature exceeds 70^ C degrees.

ON: Green (Press the push button)

Buzzer sounds when the AC fails or when the internal ambient temperature exceeds approximately 70^ C degrees.
