4. Instruccions de funcionament
4.1 Encès/Apagat
The power supply is controlled by your motherboard. Ensure the main power switch on the PSU is in the 'ON' position (usually 'I') before attempting to power on your computer via the case's power button.
4.2 Efficiency and Load Management
The 80 PLUS Gold certification indicates high energy efficiency. The power supply operates most efficiently around 50% load. While it can handle peak loads, maintaining a balanced system load contributes to optimal performance and longevity.

4.3 Funcionament del ventilador
The 120mm Fluid Dynamic Bearing (FDB) fan is designed for quiet operation. It adjusts its speed based on the power supply's temperature and load. Under low loads, the fan may operate at very low RPMs or even remain off for silent operation. Some ENERMAX models feature a 'Dust Free' technology where the fan briefly spins in reverse upon startup to clear dust, then resumes normal operation.
5. Manteniment
5.1 Neteja
To maintain optimal performance and longevity, periodically clean your power supply and PC case. Ensure the system is powered off and unplugged before cleaning.
- Use compressed air to gently remove dust from the power supply's fan grille and vents.
- Avoid using liquid cleaners directly on the power supply.
- Regularly clean dust filters in your PC case to prevent dust buildup inside the system, including the PSU.
5.2 Component Longevity
The ENERMAX Revolution III 1000W utilizes 100% industrial-grade Japanese capacitors, known for their high quality and extended lifespan, contributing to the overall durability of the unit.

6. Solució De Problemes
Si teniu problemes amb la font d'alimentació, consulteu els problemes i solucions més comuns següents:
- El sistema no s'encén:
- Assegureu-vos que el cable d'alimentació de CA estigui connectat correctament tant a la font d'alimentació com a la presa de corrent.
- Verify the PSU's main power switch is in the 'ON' position ('I').
- Comproveu totes les connexions dels cables modulars a la font d'alimentació i als components (placa base, CPU, GPU).
- Prova la presa de corrent amb un altre dispositiu.
- El sistema s'apaga inesperadament:
- This could indicate an overload or activation of a protection circuitry (e.g., OPP, OTP). Ensure your system's power draw does not exceed the PSU's rated wattage.
- Check for proper ventilation and ensure the PSU fan is not obstructed.
- Sorolls inusuals:
- A slight fan noise is normal under load. If you hear grinding or clicking, ensure no cables are interfering with the fan blades.
- If the noise persists and is abnormal, contact support.

The ENERMAX Revolution III 1000W is equipped with multiple safety features:
- OCP (Protecció sobre corrent): Shuts down the PSU if current on a single rail exceeds safe limits.
- OVP (Over Voltage Protecció): Protects components from damage due to excessive voltage.
- UVP (Sota Voltage Protecció): Prevents system instability or damage from insufficient voltage.
- OPP (Protecció contra sobrepotència): Shuts down the PSU if the total power draw exceeds its maximum capacity.
- SCP (Protecció contra curtcircuits): Protects the PSU and components from damage in case of a short circuit.
- OTP (Protecció contra sobretemperatura): Shuts down the PSU if internal temperatures become too high.
