Resumen del manual
Therefore, it is possible that your product may differ in some respect from the descriptions contained in this manual. This is not a problem – it is an improvement. All features, descriptions, and illustrations contained herein are valid as of the date of publication. Model: PHANTOM 500 The Phantom 500 power supply includes a number of ingenious features that allow it (under most conditions) to operate entirely silently. Its extruded aluminum chassis acts as a massive heat sink, which dissipates heat without the use of a fan. If the power supply's internal temperature rises above a user-determined limit (40°, 47.5°, or 55°C), its variable-speed fan will activate, thereby providing additional cooling. When it's running, the fan will automatically vary its speed in response to changing temperatures. When the internal temperature falls below this limit, the fan will shut down, allowing the power supply to operate entirely silently. ATX12V Version 2.0 compliant: The Phantom 500 conforms to the latest ATX12V Version 2.0 standard. It is also backwards-compatible with previous ATX form factor power supplies. If your motherboard has a 20-pin power receptacle, please review Step 5 of the installation instructions carefully. The Phantom 500 is also compatible with motherboards built to the SSI standard and supports an 8-pin variant of the +12V connector; use it or the 4-pin +12V connector as appropriate for your motherboard. Before you connect the power supply to any of your devices, please consult the appropriate user manuals for your motherboard and other peripherals. Protection: Phantom 500 includes dual +12V output circuitry, which delivers safer and more reliable output to your system's components. Phantom 500 also features a variety of industrial-grade protective circuitry: OCP (over current protection), OTP (over temperature protection), OVP (over voltage protection), OPP (over power protection), UVP (under voltage protection), and SCP (short circuit protection). Chassis Ventilation Note: Before installing the Phantom 500 into your PC chassis, please note that your chassis must be well-ventilated. Traditional ATX power supplies include at least one fan that cools the power supply and helps expel heat from the chassis. Even though the Phantom 500 includes a fan, the fan will remain idle (to ensure silent operation) until the power supply's internal temperature exceeds a user-determined limit. Therefore, you should make sure that the exhaust fans installed in your PC chassis can cool the whole system without the help of a power supply fan. Transportation Note: Because of Phantom's unique construction, it is considerably heavier than standard power supplies. To avoid possible damage to your case, we strongly recommend removing Phantom and transporting it separately if you plan to ship your computer somewhere or otherwise subject it to rough handling. 2 Power Switch: This power supply includes a main power switch. Make sure you turn the switch to the ON ( I ) position before you boot up your computer for the first time. In normal operation there is no need to turn the switch to the OFF ( O ) position since the power supply is equipped with a soft on/off feature which turns your computer on and off through the soft switch on your computer case. You may need to turn the switch to the OFF position occasionally (if your computer crashes and you can't shut it down through use of the soft switch). There is a blue power indicator next to the power inlet plug. When the power supply is running, the indicator lights up. [Applicable only to models designed for sale in the European Union: Power supplies designed for the EU include Power Factor Correction (PFC) circuitry in accordance with European regulation code EN61000-3-2. By altering the input wave shape, PFC improves the power factor of the power supply and results in increased energy efficiency, reduced heat loss, prolonged life for the power distribution and consumption equipment, and improved output voltage stability.] Note (not applicable to models designed for the European Union): Check the red power supply voltage switch setting before installation. It should be the same as your local as your local power voltage (115V for America, Canada, Japan, etc. and 230V for Europe, some South East Asia countries, and others). Change the voltage setting if necessary. Failure to take this precaution could result in damage to your equipment and void your warranty. How to set the fan operating mode On the power supply you'll find a 3-position fan switch. This switch allows you to set the temperature at which the power supply's fan will activate. Before you set this switch, take a moment to think about how you usually use your computer. Position 1: "High Performance" mode. The fan will activate if the temperature reaches 40°C inside the power supply. The fan will automatically vary its speed in response to changing temperatures. Once the temperature decreases below 40°C, the fan w...
