My understanding is simply having the enhancement slotted grants you the power.
I've got it in Soul Extraction on one of my masterminds, seems to be always on regardless of whether I've used the power recently or not.
You'll note the description for the proc doesn't have a duration listed like some other procs.
Eastern Standard Time (Australia)
is 15 hours ahead of
Eastern Standard Time (North America)
which is 5 hours behind
Greenwich Mean Time (GMT)

It is not a proc it is a global bonus. There are two types. Procs check a % chance (some 100% like Miracle and the stealth IOs) each time the power is used or every 10 seconds. Globals work all the time.|

The key difference is that procs work regardless of the level of the IO, but you have to use the power. So put a level 50 damage proc into your level 1 attack and it will work even if you flashback to the tutorial mission. Put Miracle's proc into health and it will work as long as you have health available. Exemplar below the level where you have access to health and the proc stops working.
Globals work all the time that you are within 3 levels of the IO or higher. So put a level 50 Sovereign Right IO into your level 1 pet and it is a wasted slot if you are below level 47. Put a level 25 Sovereign Right IO into your tier 3 pet and it works all the way down to level 22 even when you can't summon your tier 3.
In your specific case, if you put in a level 40 it will work as long as you are level 37 or higher. If you slot level 50 it will only work while you are level 47 and up. Drop down to run a taskforce and lose the benefit even if you still have the power available. Get the lowest level version you can find. =)
