Sähkönjakoyksikkö PDU PowerWalker RC-16A

The PowerWalker PDU RC-16A is a 1U rack-mounted power distribution unit that provides eight C13 AC outlets and is designed for reliable power delivery in server racks and network cabinets. It supports a nominal input voltage of 250 V and a maximum current of 16 A, and features compact dimensions (250 x 430 x 44 mm) and a 3.5 kg weight for easy integration into standard enclosures. The unit includes real-time individual current measurement, total active power monitoring and multiple communication interfaces for local and remote control.

Advantages

The PDU offers individual real-time current measurement on each outlet and total active power measurement, enabling precise load monitoring. It supports schedule-based On/Off control for all outlets and allows sequential turn-on delay to prevent high inrush currents. Multiple communication options (RS-232, USB and SNMP) permit local and remote management, while over-current threshold protection helps protect connected equipment. The 1U form factor supports both horizontal and vertical installation in racks.

Suitable for

• Server racks and IT cabinets
• Network and telecommunications equipment
• Small data centres and server rooms
• Laboratory and test bench setups with multiple AC devices

Key specifications

• Nominal input voltage: 250 V
• Maximum current: 16 A
• AC outlets quantity: 8 C13 outlets
• Form factor: 1U (rack-mountable, horizontal or vertical)
• Dimensions (W x D x H): 250 x 430 x 44 mm
• Weight: 3.5 kg
• Communication: RS-232, USB, SNMP
• Monitoring: Individual outlet current measurement, total active power
• Protection: Over-current threshold for outputs

How to use

Install the PDU in a standard 19-inch rack using the 1U mounting space either horizontally or vertically according to rack layout. Connect the mains input to a suitable 250 V, 16 A supply and plug equipment into the eight C13 outlets. Use the unit’s local controls or connect via RS-232, USB or SNMP to configure scheduling, set sequential turn-on delays and monitor outlet currents and total power. Adjust the over-current threshold as required to protect connected devices.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, ensure the upstream power source and wiring are rated for 16 A and 250 V. When adding multiple devices, monitor individual outlet currents and total power to avoid overloads; use the sequential turn-on delay to reduce inrush current when powering many devices simultaneously.
