Sentry CDU-12V

Increasing power demands and density in the equipment cabinet requires new functionality from your cabinet PDU. The Sentry CDU product family uniquely meets these demands.

The Sentry Cabinet Power Distribution Unit (CDU) is an intelligent PDU with local LED input current monitoring, allowing network engineers to utilize the CDU’s True RMS Power Monitor to precisely measure the current (in amps) that network devices are drawing on the power circuit. As new equipment units are added to the power drop, immediately observe its impact on the cumulative current draw. This allows the engineer to safely load each circuit to its maximum allowable load capacity without the danger of overloading the power circuit.
 

The CDU meets new UL 60950-1 Branch Circuit Protection requirements. Each branch circuit utilizes a Bussman® SC fuse as an Overcurrent Protection Device (OCPD). Now you can safely run 30-amp power drops to your server cabinet where individual outlet receptacles have lower output ratings (i.e., 20-amps).

Sentry CDU-12V Key Features & Benefits

Sentry CDU-12V True RMS Input Current Monitoring: Input Current Monitoring in Sentry power products is reported as the cumulative load (in amps) on each power circuit so that data center managers can obtain the data they need to plan their power requirements and to monitor power to their IT equipment. Input Current is reported in Amps and can be viewed locally on the enclosure via an LED Digital Display and remotely, when applicable, via the firmware interface.

Sentry CDU-12V LED Digital Display Input Current Monitor: Easy viewing display on the face of the enclosure that reports the True RMS Power Monitoring of the aggregate load on the power circuit (in amps). The Input Current Display allows installation engineers to verify the real-time current draw on the power circuit. This eliminates the guesswork of estimating the current draw and prevents the costly mistake of: 1) overestimating and requiring extra power drops installed or 2) underestimating and overloading a circuit - putting the enter cabinet at risk if a circuit breaker at the main PDU trips.

Sentry CDU-12V 20-amp Power Input Support: 20-amp Power Input Support. IEC320/C20 power inlet receptacles supports any power cord with IEC320/C19 power connector (PTCORD-XX).

Sentry CDU-12V 30-Amp Power Input Support: 30-amp Power Input Support. Hard-wired with 10' cord and appropriate L5-30 or L6-30 plug type.

Sentry CDU-12V Zero U Enclosure: A vertical enclsoure that occupies Zero Vertical U of rack space in the equipment cabinet. It mounts on the back rails or in the cavitity space of the cabinet.

ServerTech Sentry CDU-12V Branch Circuit Protection: Sentry PDUs are safety-agency certified to the new UL 60950-1 standard (CSA/UL/TUV) & the National Electrical Code (NEC), which require branch circuit protection for receptacles.
