Power

Hippotizer systems use an auto-sensing switch mode power supply that is capable of handling 110-250v 50/60hz power.

*The switch mode power supplies are sensitive to fluctuations in power supply voltage and power loss. Green Hippo strongly recommends using an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) on all Hippotizer systems.

In common with all computers; allow the Hippotizer to shutdown completely before removing the mains power supply to the system.

*Hippotizer systems use PCIe-based solid state storage that must be shut down correctly. In the event that power is lost abruptly, the D: drive on a server may not appear in Windows for several minutes on the next start-up. (Up to 10 minutes) This is normal as the drive re-builds itself. There is no data loss from this process. If the D: drive does not appear in Windows after 10 minutes, a further restart of the system should correct the issue.

The power inlet on a Tagus, Kasai, Meuse, and Hyco are Neutrik PowerCon True1 with a pass through. Take care not to overload the input power by using the through connections: a Meuse for example uses 1650VA (120V) / 2000VA (240V), which would mean only two systems can be connected to a 20Amp feed.

!Hazardous voltage is contained within the enclosure. Do not open the case with mains power connected.

Take care when handling the Power supply as it may retain hazardous voltages long after being unplugged from a power source.

Never attempt to disassemble or repair a power supply.

*Hippotizer systems contain delicate electronic equipment that is sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD). Take appropriate ESD precautions before handling internal components of the system.
