DK7979.530 Rittal PDU METERED+ 16A/3P CEE 9XC19
Rittal DK 7979.530 PDU Metered Plus is a 16 A, 400 V AC, 3-phase intelligent rack power distribution unit with nine IEC C19 outlets, individual outlet energy measurement, network connectivity and an integrated display.
Why Choose the Rittal DK 7979.530 PDU Metered Plus?
The Rittal DK 7979.530 PDU Metered Plus is a high-end intelligent power distribution unit designed for professional IT server and network racks. Rated at 16 A / 400 V AC, 3-phase, it distributes power through 9 × IEC 60320 C19 outlets while providing detailed energy measurement for each individual output slot.
Designed for data centre and IT infrastructure applications, the PDU Metered Plus combines power distribution, monitoring and network connectivity in a robust aluminium housing. Individual outlet measurement enables operators to monitor the electrical requirements of connected equipment, while adjustable warning and alarm thresholds support proactive power management.
The DK 7979.530 is designed for vertical installation in the zero-U space of compatible IT racks, helping preserve valuable rack units for active equipment. A network interface, integrated display and comprehensive electrical measurement functions make it suitable for server, storage and network environments where visibility of rack-level power consumption is essential.
