Why monitor?
The unique monitoring function of Eaton ePDUs allows you to remotely monitor the current draw of individual outlets or sections over
a network. This, combined with state-of-the-art software, allows the user to aggregate the information from hundreds of ePDUs in one
location. All monitored ePDUs also include the Easy-Read digital LED ammeter for easy start-up and provisioning of servers. This feature
allows remote monitoring of current for capacity planning and energy management.
Key features and benefits
• Access circuit-level and ePDU-level information worldwide
• Get a global view across your ePDUs from any PC or server with Intelligent
Power Manager software (you can learn more about Intelligent Power Manager on page 9)
• Receive warnings and alarms remotely
Advanced Monitoring
Advanced monitoring allows you to monitor down to the individual outlet
Key features:
• High-density congurations reduce enclosure space requirement
• Fuse-less design signicantly reduces reset time
• UL Listed (UL489) branch circuit breakers meet UL60950-1 edition requirements
• Easy-Read digital ammeter reduces local monitoring time (auto scroll capability)
• True RMS ammeter provides accurate power measurement
• Multi-purpose mounting improves installation exibility
• Isolation hardware improves product grounding
• High-grade components increases product reliability and fault tolerance
• Clearly labeled circuits simplify load balancing
400 volt solution
Eaton 400V ePDUs limit energy loss through transformers by avoiding the 480-208 volt conversion. These units use European standard,
three-phase 400 volt phase-to-phase – 230 volt phase to neutral - replacing 208 volt phase-to-phase in the US. Operating power supplies
at 230 volt versus 208 volt typically increases power supply efficiency.
400V ePDUs also distribute almost twice the power on the same copper to achieve multiple reductions. Eaton offers a unique power
distribution solution for 400 volt applications. These applications include
• Containerized data centers
• Customers looking for global standard
• Progressive data centers looking for cost reductions and efciency gains
You can find 400V ePDUs featured in the Monitored and Switched sections of this catalog, as well as on eaton.com/epdu.
