Geist Policy on Conflict Minerals

This document details Geist's corporate policy regarding the use of conflict minerals. The policy expressed in this document should be considered to cover the Geist and Geist Europe divisions of Vertiv Inc.

Section 1502 of the Dodd-Frank Act which was passed by the US Congress in 2010 requires certain companies to annually disclose their use of conflict minerals. Conflict minerals covered under this act include tantalum, tin, tungsten, and gold.

Although Geist is not directly subjected to the requirements of the Dodd-Frank Act, Geist recognizes that all companies within the electronics manufacturing industry supply chain are impacted by this legislation. Geist supports the intent of the law, which is the reduction of violence within the Democratic Republic of the Congo and will take several actions to both advance the goals of the Dodd-Frank Act and to provide exceptional support to our customers.

• Geist will work with our direct suppliers to identify purchased components and materials that contain tin, tantalum, tungsten or gold.
• Geist will work with our direct suppliers to trace sources of any tin, tantalum, tungsten or gold used in our products back to the smelter.
• Geist will document our efforts to trace tin, tantalum, tungsten, and gold minerals back to the smelter and will accurately report the results to our customers.
• Geist will continue to monitor industry progress in identifying conflict-free smelters and will adjust corporate policy as the electronics supply chain becomes more fully documented.

Geist will not require that our direct suppliers source only conflict-free minerals until an adequate number of smelters has been reliably identified and audited by The Electronic Industry Citizenship Coalition (EICC) and the Global e-Sustainability Initiative (GeSI) to service the electronic industry supply chain. Mandating a conflict-free supply chain before an adequate number of smelters has been identified will prohibit the use of all tin, tantalum, tungsten, and gold originating in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and surrounding countries. This prohibition would cut off the sole income source for many artisanal miners within the region and may result in increased violence within the Democratic Republic of the Congo in direct opposition to the goals of the Dodd-Frank Act. Geist will work continuously with our direct suppliers in order to annually increase the percentage of documented conflict-free minerals that are used in our products until all products can be certified as conflict-free.

WEEE Declaration

Geist Europe is obligated to finance the cost of the collection, treatment, recovery and environmentally sound disposal of all products sold by Geist Europe into the UK market this includes:

• New WEEE (displaying ‘the crossed out wheeled bin symbol’) that Geist Europe has placed onto the market after the 13th August 2005; and
• Historic WEEE (not displaying ‘the crossed out wheeled bin symbol’), when Geist Europe is supplying new WEEE that is intended to replace the historic WEEE and is of equivalent type or fulfills the same function even if the historic WEEE was manufactured by a third party.

Installation

1. Using appropriate hardware, mount unit to rack. See next section for examples.
2. Plug PDU into an appropriately-rated and protected branch-circuit receptacle.
3. Plug in the devices to be powered by the PDU.
4. Turn on each device connected to the PDU. Sequential power-up is recommended to avoid high inrush current.

NOTE

Branch Circuit should be sized based on the PDU's nameplate electrical rating. A 12 Amp rated PDU is intended for use on a 15 Amp Branch Circuit, while a 16 Amp rated PDU is intended for use on a 20 Amp Branch Circuit. For Global Units a 16 Amp rated PDU is intended for use on a 16 Amp Branch Circuit.

Guidelines

• If the PDU is installed in a cabinet the ambient temperature of the rack should be no greater than 45^ C and 25^ C for the MJ series.
• Install the PDU such that the amount of airflow required for safe operation of equipment is not compromised.
• Mount the PDU so that a hazardous condition is not achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.
• Follow nameplate ratings when connecting equipment to the branch circuit. Take into consideration the effect that overloading of the circuits might have on over-current protection and supply wiring.
• The PDU relies on the building installation for protection from over-current conditions. A certified overcurrent protection device is required in the building installation. The overcurrent protection device should be sized according to the PDU's nameplate ratings and local/national electrical codes.
• Reliable earthing of rack-mount equipment should be maintained. Particular attention should be given to supply connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit. The PDU must be connected to an earthed socket-outlet.***
• The PDU is intended for Restricted Access Locations only and only qualified service personnel should install and access the PDU.
• For pluggable equipment, install the PDU so that the input plug or appliance coupler may be disconnected for service.
• Sequential power-up of devices powered by the PDU is recommended to avoid high inrush current.
• Caution: Disconnect all power cords before servicing.
• The PDU is intended for use with TN, TT, or IT power supply systems

NOTE

J Series PDUs may optionally be configured as Isolated Ground units. All Isolated Ground units will be shipped with an enclosure grounding cable. This cable must be connected between the enclosure and a reliable safety ground.
