Product description
DK PDU international, managed, high-end power distribution incl. energy measurement, switching and monitoring functions per output slot, with network interface and display, WLD: 44x845x70 mm, IEC 60 320: 12x C13 + 1x C19
Per-output energy measurement and monitoring provides granular visibility into power usage by each outlet, enabling accurate cost allocation and energy governance. This capability supports chargeback models and capacity planning for dense IT racks, reducing waste and improving budgeting accuracy. Applications include data centers and enterprise server rooms seeking better energy transparency. Paragraph 2: The 12x C13 + 1x C19 outlets deliver 230 V, 16 A and 3.7 kW of power, with a compact footprint that fits VX IT frames, enabling efficient rack integration and streamlined installations. Paragraph 3: Fully redundant Ethernet interface with 2x RJ45 and a PoE-enabled port supports robust remote management and secure access via HTTP(S), SSH, Telnet, and NTP. The PoE-assisted operation helps maintain a reachable web interface during power fluctuations. Paragraph 4: Safety and compliance are reinforced by EMC Directive 2014/30/EU and EN 62368-1 standards, with CE labeling for global deployment. Optional Type 3 overvoltage protection, residual current measurement (type B), and CAN bus ambient sensors expand protective coverage. Paragraph 5: Zero-U mounting compatibility with VX IT and TS IT enclosures simplifies deployment, reduces install time and inventory costs. The rotatable display and replaceable controller support easy servicing, while the modular design accommodates future sensor-based monitoring.
