Rugged Rackmount Power Distribution Unit (PDU)

Elma rugged power distribution unit (PDU) is designed for use in harsh environments. The unit is designed to mount into a 2U height space height within a 19” rackmount cabinet. The unit can be mounted on slide rails, on a shelf, or as part of a fixed installation within the cabinet. The front panel of the unit is recessed from the mounting brackets to ensure that mated cables will not interfere with the front door of smaller cabinets. The depth of the unit is approximately 430mm (excluding rear mating connectors), ensuring it will fit in most cabinets. Power entry is on the rear of the unit using a circular connector. Up to 8 IEC outlets can be supplied on the front panel, with each output having an individual control switch and over-current protection breaker. Customizable front and rear panels allow the type and quantity of connectors fitted and their location on the unit to be changed to suit any application. The rating of the over-current protection breaker can be tailored for each output to ensure downstream equipment is correctly protected. Internally, the unit is fitted with a controller card, which provides discrete controls to turn off the outputs or allow links to over-temperature and battle override functions.
