Safety information 5
• Connect the device to AC power using either the supplied power input
cable (DMX 5.3 Splitter only) or via 3-conductor cable that is heat
resistant to minimum 90° C (194° F) and rated minimum 20 amp. In
North America the power input cable must be minimum 12 AWG, type
SJT or equivalent. In the EU the cable must be minimum 2.5 mm
2
conductor size and HAR approved or equivalent.
• Cables used for power throughput via the RDM 5.5 Splitter’s power
throughput outlet must meet the same specifications as those given
above for power input cables.
• The voltage and frequency at the RDM 5.5 Splitter’s power throughput
outlet are the same as the voltage and frequency applied to the power
inlet. Only connect devices to the power throughput outlet that accept
this voltage and frequency.
• The total current draw of all the devices connected to the RDM 5.5
Splitter’s power throughput outlet in a chain must not exceed 19.6
amps.
• Before using the device, check that all power distribution equipment
and cables are in perfect condition and rated for the current
requirements of all connected devices.
• Isolate the device from power immediately if the power cable or power
plug are in any way damaged, defective or wet, or if they show signs of
overheating.
• Do not expose the device to moisture or allow it to become wet.
• Do not operate the device if any cover or component is missing,
damaged or deformed.
• Refer any service operation not described in this manual to an
authorized Martin Service partner.
PROTECTION FROM BURNS AND FIRE
• Provide unrestricted airflow around the device.
• Do not operate the device if the ambient temperature (T
a
) exceeds
55° C (137° F).
• Do not modify the device in any way not described in this manual.
