Sentry PTPD-H016
30-Amp Power Distribution with a True RMS Power
Monitor
The Sentry Power Distribution Unit (PTPD)
is an enhanced zero U or rack-mount solution, allowing
Network engineers to utilize the PTPD'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, one
may immediately observe its impact on the cumulative
current draw. Therefore, the engineer can safely load
the circuit to its maximum allowable load capacity without
the danger of overloading the power circuit. The Power
Tower PDU also features current overload warning.
-
15, 20, or 30-Amp power input feed
with straight-blade or twist-lock connectors. 120V
or 230V
-
Precisely measures and reports the
current (in amps) that network devices are drawing
on each power circuit with the True RMS power monitor.
An LED digital display indicator on the front panel
of the Power Tower reports the current for on-site
measurement.
-
Configure the Power Tower Power
Distribution Unit (PTPD) with a maximum input current
rating to prevent an overload. An audible alarm
signals with the Input Current Threshold has been
exceeded and continues to sound until the Input
Current drops below the threshold value.

Sentry PTPD-H016 Key Features and
Benefits:
Sentry PTPD-H016 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 PTPD-H016 Rack-Mount Enclosure:
1U and 2U "horizontal" rack-mount enclosures are 17"
wide and include standard mounting brackets for 19"
cabinet rails. 23" brackets also available.
Sentry PTPD-H016 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 PTPD-H016 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 PTPD-H016 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 PTPD-H016 Overcurrent Alarm:
Audible (local) alarm sounds when defined maximum current
load (amps) is exceeded.
