iPDU is a software-controlled, intelligent Power
Distribution Unit, designed for use in industrial automation and automatic test
equipments.
Units have single and three phase outputs depending
on the model.
Output channels can be turned on/off sequentially
at specified times. Desired channels in
order can be included/excluded in/from the on-off scenario. Sequential on-off
times are adjustable between 0.1 seconds and 999.9 seconds.
Units can also be managed with PDU Manager software
over the 10/100 Mbits Ethernet interface. Sequential on-off scenarios created
with PDU Manager software are independent of the RCU.
iPDU supports SCPI protocol. Users can integrate
the units into their own environment using the SCPI protocol over the Ethernet
interface.
All the settings and configurations can be made through
Touch Screen TFT LCD on the Remote Control Unit (RCU). There is an Emergency
Stop Button on the RCU, as well. Live status of all channels can be
monitored.on the RCU main screen. Please see RCU Section for more details.
There is a 105 dBA buzzer inside the PDU. Besides
visual warnings, current/voltage anomalies are notified to the user audibly.
There is a real time counter (ETI) on the PDU. ETI
is independent of all other components and it shows the total time that the
unit has remained active.
In the front panel of the PDU, there are manual on/off switches and for
standalone operation and thermal circuit breakers.
Features
iPDU can be ordered in different input-output
configurations according to user requirements.
Here are mostly ordered configurations:
AC iPDUs
DC iPDUs
Input: 20-30 VDC
Input: AC, 3-phase, 60A/phase
Output: 25 Channels, MIL-DTL5015, see details
Output: 3 x 3-phase, 30A/channel/phase
3 x 1-phase, 30A/channel, 6xIEC 320 C13/channel
270VDC Standalone iPDU is under development
Input: AC, 1-phase, 20A, IEC 320 C20
Output: 16 x 1-phase, 16A/channel, 1xIEC 320 C13/channel
Input: 3-phase, 40A/phase
Output: 1 x 3-phase, 40A/channel/phase
3 x 1-phase, 20A/channel, 6xIEC 320 C13/channel

* Some of the options are mutually exclusive. e.g. a DC unit can not be configured with 3-phase outputs.
