Technical Details of Eaton 9PX PowerPass Distribution Module

  • Model and purpose: Eaton 9PX PowerPass Distribution Module (PDM) designed for 5kVA–6kVA 9PX UPS systems to deliver 120V power from a 208V high-voltage UPS output.
  • Input interface: L6-30P inlet for a 30A, 208/250V supply, enabling dependable high-voltage input to the distribution module.
  • Output configuration: 1x L6-30R, 1x L14-30R, and 6x NEMA 5-20R outlets, providing a versatile mix of 120V and higher-capacity outlets for diverse devices within a single PDU.
  • Voltage and compatibility: 120V output from a 208V input system; optimized for Eaton 9PX UPS units in the 5–6 kVA range, delivering clean, protected power to critical equipment.
  • Form factor: 3U rack/tower, designed to fit standard 19-inch racks for space-efficient deployment in data rooms or network closets.
  • Protection and reliability: Includes integrated electrical protection features and overload safeguards to help maintain uptime and reduce risk of equipment damage.
  • Installation considerations: Intended for use in environments where 208V UPS outputs feed a 120V IT load, with proper grounding and adherence to local electrical codes.

How to install Eaton 9PX PowerPass Distribution Module

  • Prepare the installation site: Verify that your 9PX UPS is compatible (5kVA–6kVA) and ensure you have the appropriate rack space (3U) in a cool, well-ventilated area. Confirm that the electrical service can supply a 30A, 208/240V circuit and that a suitable earth ground is available for rack grounding.
  • Mount the PDM in the rack: Slide the PowerPass Distribution Module into the rack, aligning it with standard 19-inch mounting rails. Secure the unit with the provided screws to prevent movement during operation and maintenance.
  • Connect the input power: Attach the L6-30P input receptacle to a suitable 30A power source using an appropriate power cord rated for the environment. Ensure the connection is tight and that the power is off during the connection to prevent arcing or equipment damage.
  • Route and connect outputs: Plan a clean cable layout and connect critical devices to the L6-30R, L14-30R, and six NEMA 5-20R outlets. Group devices by priority and power requirements to optimize load distribution and minimize cable congestion.
  • Ground and safety checks: Verify that the PDM chassis is properly grounded and that all devices share a common ground path. Check that cords are not stretched, pinched, or placed where they could pose a trip hazard or obstruct cooling airflow.
  • Power up and verify operation: Power on the PDM and then the connected UPS. Use the UPS management software or the status indicators on the PDM to verify that outlets are delivering 120V and that there are no fault indicators. Confirm that critical devices receive stable power within acceptable tolerance ranges.
  • Test load distribution and monitoring: Gradually apply load to the outlets while monitoring voltage, frequency, and current. Ensure that the total load remains within the PDM and UPS specifications and that no single outlet is overloaded. If available, enable any monitoring features to track energy use and outlet health remotely.
  • Documentation and maintenance: Document the wiring diagram, outlet assignments, and UPS pairing for future maintenance. Schedule periodic inspections to verify cables, connections, and protective devices remain secure and compliant with local electrical codes.
