The PDU socket is the terminal distribution device that distributes the output current from UPS to various IT equipment. It is a key equipment that connects power supply and other infrastructure with the IT system and all equipment in the associated computer room for normal operation. The PDU is installed on the cabinet. After the mains power is supplied to the UPS host, the UPS is output to the UPS distribution box, which distributes power to each cabinet PDU, and then the PDU supplies power to the equipment. The PDU power socket is the first and most closely related component in the operation of many devices, and the quality of the PDU directly affects the performance of each device.
When compare with peers, CPSY® Smart PDU advantages as below:
1. High safety factor and cost saving: The PDU manages the power supply with overload and power-off protection and multiple circuit protection functions, which can prevent hazards such as overload, high temperature, leakage, lightning strikes, and surges, and maximize the safety factor of the product. In addition, this product can help users achieve unmanned operation, save labor costs, effectively reduce management and maintenance costs, and have high cost-effectiveness.
2. Real time power monitoring, automatic alarm protection: PDU can monitor power parameters such as supply voltage, current, active power, reactive power, and frequency in real time, making it easy for users to master and manage various power equipment. When the system malfunctions or the total load current exceeds the system set value, an automatic alarm will be triggered through SMS, email, and phone calls.
3. Support sensitive device system devices: PDU power sockets have advantages such as PDU technology, high work efficiency, strong anti-interference ability, and reliable performance.
4. It supports remote control and is convenient for management: PDU can access LAN or Internet, and users can remotely control PDU through computer, and inquire, connect, disconnect or restart the power supply of each device on its lower port, completely breaking the constraints of distance and region.
5. Multiple installation methods for fixed and flexible strategy management: Users can customize configuration strategies based on the usage of various power equipment. Based on user policy management and monitoring of events, this product supports centralized management and automatic cycle control, managing multiple devices simultaneously in one interface, and setting the power on/off cycle independently, which is convenient and practical.
6. Electricity metering and energy consumption evaluation: PDU can manage the electricity consumption of power equipment, calculate power factor, and evaluate energy consumption of power equipment. If the power factor is low, the power loss during transmission is significant, and the electricity consumption suddenly increases. The PDU can adjust the power consumption status of the equipment through settings, and alert users through SMS, email, and other means.
7. Long lifespan: With a lifespan of up to 10 years and over 10000 hot swappable sockets, it is far superior to ordinary sockets.

1. When installing a horizontal PDU, a reserved installation U space for the PDU should be reserved. When installing a vertical PDU in a cabinet, the position of the horizontal panel on the side of the cabinet should be aligned with the installation size of the PDU;
2. Pay attention to the temperature rise indicators and current changes of the PDU to determine whether the equipment is working properly
3. The installation should be kept away from heat sources, and PDU sockets should not be installed near radiators, heaters, amplifiers, furnaces, or other items that generate heat;
4. Do not use PDU sockets in areas with water, close to water, or high air humidity, and do not touch the PDU socket or connection plug with wet hands;
5. Do not stick or wrap metal objects or any other conductive materials around the power cord of the PDU power socket.
6. The power of the distribution socket in front of the cabinet should match the circuit power of the distribution branch of the column head cabinet and the power of the PDU, otherwise it will reduce the power consumption index;
1.According to the materials. PDU socket cores can be divided into pure silver production. tin phosphorus copper production. and copper production. They are sorted in order of good conductivity. high safety performance. and high strength. with pure silver production>tin phosphorus copper production>copper production. The internal electrode of the PDU socket is made of 0.5-0.6mm thick phosphor copper sheet metal. and the surface is treated with nickel plating. which is anti-corrosion and not easy to change color. It is only oxidized at temperatures above 600 ℃ and has high hardness. The shell of the PDU socket is made of industrial grade high-quality mechanical properties. electrical insulation. flame retardancy. and smoothness PC material. It can withstand 850 ℃ burning flame retardant test. achieve UL94V-0 flame retardancy. and can withstand 125 ℃ high temperature without deformation. At the same time. it also has strong stability. ensuring long-term continuous use.
2.Look at the structure: The structure of PDU socket switches is mainly divided into two types. one is sliding type. and the other is swinging type. The sliding switch increases the contact area between wires and electrical devices. has characteristics such as strong sound. comfortable and elegant touch. has antioxidant properties. and is difficult to loosen and have poor contact. The swinging switch has advantages such as clear and crisp sound. long service life. and good stability. but also has disadvantages such as small area. easy oxidation. and poor contact of electrical components. The internal connection of the PDU socket adopts a parallel structure of all copper strips (columns). and the copper nails and copper strips are riveted with a nominal force of 10KN. The cold pressed terminal copper nails are used for industrial riveting. ensuring reliable connection.
3.Surface craftsmanship: When purchasing PDU sockets. it is important to observe the surface craftsmanship. The casing should be made of professional grade aluminum alloy that meets the requirements of industrial control. The surface treatment should use anodizing technology. which is smoother. more wear-resistant. and prevents surface burrs and scratches. making it very comfortable to use. In the past. similar products used spray coating technology for surface treatment. which was rough and prone to scratches and paint peeling. and opened or closed relatively slowly.
4.Considering price and after-sales service: When purchasing PDU sockets. it is necessary to start from actual needs. and reasonable product configurations and sales prices can attract people's attention. Choosing products with high cost-effectiveness is more suitable.
