Frequently Asked Questions - PDU3XMV6G32 Tripp Lite

How to install the PDU PDU3XMV6G32?

Installation must be performed by a qualified technician. Use the pre-installed mounting buttons for tool-free mounting in a standard rack, or attach the provided mounting brackets with screws. Follow the manual's instructions for electrical connection.

What do the LED indicators on the PDU mean?

In standard configuration: Green = normal operation, Yellow = load >80%, Red = under voltage, Red flashing = breaker tripped. See the manual for alternative configuration.

How to read the digital display?

The 3-digit display shows the measured value (A, kW, V, %UB). The LEDs indicate the type. Use the arrows and Mode button to navigate between input phases (L1-L3), banks (B1-B6), imbalance, and total power.

What type of input plug is required?

The PDU is equipped with a IEC 309 red 32A 3P+N+T plug. It requires a three-phase 360-415V power source with neutral and ground.

Can I plug any equipment into the outlets?

The total load must not exceed 32A, and each C19 and C13 outlet must not exceed its rated amperage. The PDU does not provide surge protection.

How to reset a tripped breaker?

Disconnect the excessive load, then insert a flathead screwdriver into the breaker's reset slot to rearm it. The breaker is protected against accidental tripping.

Is it possible to mount the PDU with outputs to the rear?

Yes, use the included PDUMVROTATEBRKT accessory to reposition the mounting brackets, allowing the outputs to face the rear of the rack.

What to do in case of display fault?

Perform an LED test by pressing and holding the Mode button for 3 seconds. All segments and LEDs will light briefly. If a problem persists, contact Tripp Lite support at www.tripplite.com/support.

Can I use the PDU outdoors?

No, the PDU is designed for indoor use only, in a controlled environment, away from moisture, extreme temperatures, and dust.

How to enable auto-scroll on the display?

In the function options menu, use the Mode button to select Auto Scroll. 'Y' enables (4-second cycles), 'N' disables. Press any button to temporarily interrupt.

Important Safety Instructions

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

This manual contains instructions and warnings that should be followed during the installation, operation, and storage of this product. Failure to heed these instructions and warnings may affect the product warranty.

CAUTION Only those who are properly trained or qualified to use this device should do so. Anyone who is not trained or qualified should not use this device unless it is under the supervision of someone who is properly trained or qualified to do so.

Children must be supervised to ensure that they do not use the device as a toy.

Never use the device if the cord and plug are damaged; if it is not working properly, or if it has been dropped or damaged, take it to an authorized service center for inspection and repair.

If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its authorized service agent, or by qualified personnel in order to avoid a danger.

• The PDU provides the convenience of multiple outlets, but DOES NOT provide surge or line noise protection for connected equipment.
• The PDU is designed for indoor use only, in a controlled environment, away from excess moisture, temperature extremes, conductive contaminants, dust or direct sunlight.
• Keep indoor ambient temperature between 32°F and 122°F (0°C and 50°C).
• The PDU must be installed by a qualified technician only.
• Do not attempt to mount the PDU to an insecure or unstable surface.
  • Install in accordance with National Electrical Code standards. Be sure to use the proper overcurrent protection for the installation, in accordance with the plug/equipment rating.
• Connect the PDU to an outlet that is in accordance with your local building codes and that is adequately protected against excess currents, short circuits and earth faults.
• The electrical outlets supplying power to the equipment should be installed near the equipment and easily accessible.
• Do not connect the PDU to an ungrounded outlet or to extension cords or adapters that eliminate the connection to ground.
• Be sure to provide a local disconnect device on any models that are permanently installed without a plug that is easily accessible.
• Never attempt to install electrical equipment during a thunderstorm.
• Individual equipment connected to the PDU should not draw more current than the individual PDU's outlet's rating.
• The total load connected to the PDU must not exceed the maximum load rating for the PDU.
• Do not attempt to modify the PDU, input plugs or power cables.
• Do not drill into or attempt to open any part of the PDU housing. There are no user-serviceable parts inside.
• Do not attempt to use the PDU if any part of it becomes damaged.
• Use of this equipment in life support applications where failure of this equipment can reasonably be expected to cause the failure of the life support equipment or to significantly affect its safety or effectiveness is not recommended. Do not use this equipment in the presence of a flammable anesthetic mixture with air, oxygen or nitrous oxide.

Installation

Mounting the PDU

Note: The illustrations may differ somewhat from your PDU model. Regardless of configuration, the user must determine the fitness of hardware and procedures before mounting. The PDU and included hardware are designed for common rack and rack enclosure types and may not be appropriate for all applications. Exact mounting configurations may vary. Screws for attaching the mounting brackets to the PDU are included. Use only the screws supplied by the manufacturer or their exact equivalent.

Note: Mounting buttons come preinstalled to the PDU for toolless mounting.

1-1 To mount the PDU using the pre-installed mounting buttons, position the PDU as desired in the rack enclosure, align the buttons with the rack mounting slots, and slide the PDU into position.

1-2 To attach the mounting brackets to the PDU, remove the mounting buttons.

1-3 Attach the mounting brackets to the PDU with the included screws.

1-4 Attach the PDU to a vertical rail in your rack or rack enclosure. (Use the mounting hardware that came with your rack or rack enclosure to attach the mounting brackets to the rail.)

1-5 To reinstall the mounting buttons for toolless mounting, remove the mounting brackets then install the mounting buttons onto the PDU.

Note: Be sure to insert the 2 buttons into either the upper hole at each end of the PDU or into the lower hole at each end of the PDU.

1-6 To install the PDU with its outlets facing the rear of the rack, use the included PDUMVROTATEBRKT accessory. First, attach the mounting button A to the V-shaped bracket B using the included screw and washer. Then, use the button-mount slot to attach the bracket to the PDU and the mounting button to attach the PDU to the rack. The bracket effectively repositions the mounting brackets allowing for the PDU outlets to face the rear of the rack.

Installation

Connecting the PDU

2-1 The PDU3XMV6G32 is equipped with a 32A Red IEC 309 3P + N + E plug.

Model Name Input	Plug	Max Input Amps (Limited by Input Cord and Plug)	Input Voltage Range	Output Voltage Range Breakers	Cord Length Outlets
PDU3XMV6G32	32A Red IEC 309 3P + N + E	32A 360-415V	208-240V		6 x Single Pole, 20A Branch-Rated	6 ft. (1.8 m)

2-2 Connect the input plug to your facility's compatible AC power source.

2-3 Connect your equipment's input plugs to the appropriate outlets on the PDU. The LED near each bank illuminates when the bank is ready to distribute live AC power.

Note: It is recommended that you do not connect a live load to the PDU. If the load you intend to connect has an ON/OFF switch, please turn the switch to OFF prior to connection.

2-4 Optional Cord Retention Procedure

Use the included C14 and C20 plastic sleeves to secure plugs to receptacles. Attach the sleeve to the plug, making sure that the pull tabs A remain outside the plug and that the fit is secure. To unplug equipment properly, use the pull tabs to remove the plug and sleeve from the receptacle.

The Ground Truth image displays a single, solid horizontal line. According to Rule 2 (UNDERSCORE & LINE RULES), this is a stylistic or background line, not a placeholder underscore. Therefore, the OCR result must ignore it and output nothing or only meaningful text. The provided OCR content is "____", which consists of four underscores. This is an incorrect interpretation of the line as a placeholder, violating the rule that stylistic lines must be ignored. The OCR has hallucinated underscores where none should exist based on the GT's visual context. Hence, the OCR result is inconsistent with the Ground Truth.
