FAQs
The DK 7979.411 PDU is designed for VX IT enclosure frames of at least 1,200 mm and 19" mounting angles of at least 1,800 mm. It supports zero-U mounting for space efficiency and includes a 3 m input cable with a CEE connection. The unit provides 10 outlets (CEE 7/3) and a rotatable display for easy service access.
Each outlet includes energy measurement and monitoring, enabling visibility into per-slot loads. The device supports a PoE-powered web server for remote access, sequential disconnection of outputs for safe shutdowns, and an Ethernet interface with redundant 10/100/1000 Mbit/s connections for reliable monitoring and alerting.
Yes. The system complies with CE marking and conforms to EN 62368-1 safety standards, along with EMC Directive 2014/30/EU requirements. These certifications support regulatory compliance in data centers and industrial environments, reducing audit complexity and accelerating deployments.
Input is via a 3 m CEE power cable, and the PDU provides 10 x earthing-pin sockets (type F, CEE 7/3). The unit operates at 230 V AC with a maximum rated current of 16 A and a total power capacity of up to 3.7 kW, suitable for IT and rack-mounted equipment.
Key deployment advantages include zero-U mounting in VX IT frames, a rotatable and replaceable display/controller, and a networked management interface (PoE-ready). Compatibility with optional overvoltage protection, ambient sensors via CAN bus, and modular enclosure fitments streamline installation, testing, and future upgrades while maintaining regulatory compliance.
