This manual presents information about the MPH2’s functions and features. For details on operating the MPH2 through the RPC2 communications module, refer to the RPC2 user manual, SL-20841. The document is available at Emerson’s Web site: http://www.emersonnetworkpower.com The RPC2 is installed near the middle of the MPH2 Rack PDU. The central location eases connections whichever orientation is required for network cabling.
1.3.3 On-board LCD Controls and Indicators Emerson’s MPH2 has an integrated, on-board LCD that can be used to view information about the rack PDU. The information available depends on the type of MPH2. For additional information about the on-board LCD, refer to 3.0 - Operation.
Receptacles on Branch A are protected by the circuit breaker labeled A. Three-phase PDUs may also have labeling showing the phase associated with each circuit breaker. NOTE The branch circuit breaker is not designed to be used as a disconnect device for the connected load. ® ™ Emerson MPH2 User Manual...
1.3.5 Hard-Wired Connection Features Emerson’s MPH2 Rack PDU may be equipped with either a factory-installed input power cord or hard-wired connections. The hard-wired connection will be at one end of the unit. A terminal block in the hard-wired connection compartment is coded to aid in making the connections. A collar secures the input wire, keeping the strain off the terminal block connections.
2.0 Installation An MPH2 Rack PDU can be installed in an Emerson rack on the frame members using factory-supplied hardware. The unit can be installed on the face or the side of frame members. The unit can be mounted so that the power cord exits either the top or bottom of the rack.
9. Install the cover plate, by either sliding it on or snapping it into place and pressing it against the cover plate. 10. Attach the metal end plate to the MPH2 with four screws provided in the kit. ® ™ Emerson MPH2 User Manual...

Mounting the Vertical MPH2 The vertical MPH2 can be installed on a vertical or horizontal frame member in the rack. 1. Determine where in the Emerson rack the PDU will be installed. 2. Attach a bracket to each end of the PDU.
6. Tighten the screws, applying 46 lb-in (5.2 Nm). 7. Repeat Steps 4 through 6 for the lower bracket on the lower end of the PDU. Figure 2-4 Installing vertical MPH2 in an Emerson rack 2.3.3 Mounting the Horizontal MPH2 The horizontal MPH2 is installed on a vertical frame member in the rack.
5. Insert screws and use a Torx T30 screwdriver to tighten all of them, Figure 2-6. Leave the screws slightly loose for the time being. 6. Once all the screws are installed, tighten them completely using 35.4 lb-in (5.2 Nm). Figure 2-6 Installing horizontal MPH2 in a rack with aluminum extrusions ® ™ Emerson MPH2 User Manual...
NOTE Ensure that the safety-earth connection at the input-power-source receptacle is made before any equipment is connected to Emerson’s MPH2 Rack PDU. Units with factory-attached input-power cords have an grounding conductor internal to the case. The rack grounding strap establishes the same ground reference between the MPH2 Rack PDU and the rack.

All C13 and C19 receptacles on MPH2 Rack PDUs are locking receptacles. Locking requires use of special power cords, which may be factory-installed on the equipment or is available from Emerson. If non-locking power cords are used, the power cords should be secured through other methods to prevent unintended power interruption.
5. Hang the RPC BDM on the screw with the hooded mounting slot on the back of the RPC BDM. 6. Connect the RPC BDM to the RPC2 with an Ethernet cable. 7. Be certain to connect the cable to the correct port on the RPC2. ® ™ Emerson MPH2 User Manual...
4. Hold the sensor bracket on a T-slot on the Emerson rack frame where the sensor will be placed. 5. Insert the included quarter-turn fastener through the rectangular hole in the sensor bracket base and into the T-slot.
Operation 3.0 Operation Emerson’s MPH2 Rack PDU may be monitored and managed by the factory-installed RPC2 communications module.
