DK7955.540 Rittal Power Distribution Unit (PDU) UK managed version WLD: 44x1280x85 mm

Why Choose the Rittal DK 7955.540 Managed UK Power Distribution Unit?

The Rittal DK 7955.540 is an intelligent managed Power Distribution Unit (PDU) designed for professional power distribution, monitoring and control within IT racks, data centres and network infrastructure. As part of the Rittal DK PDU range, it combines 16 UK BS 1363 output sockets with individual outlet energy measurement, monitoring and switching functionality.

Designed for advanced rack power management, the DK 7955.540 provides measurement and monitoring functions for each individual output slot. An integrated Web server enables direct network connectivity and extensive user administration, while bistable relays and an OLED display help minimise the PDU's own energy consumption. Measurement accuracy of 1% supports reliable monitoring of connected IT equipment.

With a single-phase 13 A UK input, 16 BS 1363 UK outlets and compact dimensions of 44 × 1280 × 85 mm, the DK 7955.540 provides a space-efficient managed power distribution solution for IT enclosures. Its black anodised aluminium construction and IP20 protection rating make it well suited to controlled indoor data centre and communications environments.

Intelligent Power Monitoring and Control for IT Racks

Managed PDUs such as the Rittal DK 7955.540 provide significantly greater visibility and control than conventional rack power strips. Energy measurement and monitoring at each individual outlet enables administrators to understand equipment-level power consumption, identify unusual loads and manage rack capacity more effectively.

The integrated network functionality allows the PDU to form part of a comprehensive IT infrastructure monitoring system. Its CAN bus interface supports connection of slave PDUs, while compatibility with up to four CMC III sensors enables additional monitoring of environmental conditions including temperature, humidity, rack access and vandalism.

Typical Applications

• Data centre server racks and IT enclosures.
• Network and telecommunications cabinets.
• Managed rack power distribution systems.
• Remote power monitoring and outlet control.
• Energy consumption monitoring for individual IT devices.
• Server rooms and communications infrastructure.
• Rittal TS IT rack installations.
• IT infrastructure requiring environmental and power monitoring.
