Eaton Tripp Lite Series 2.4kW Single-Phase Local Metered Automatic Transfer Switch PDU

The Eaton Tripp Lite Series 2.4kW Single-Phase Local Metered Automatic Transfer Switch PDU is a purpose-built power distribution solution engineered for reliability, efficiency, and easy integration in critical networking environments. This 1U, rack-mountable PDU provides precise local metering and seamless automatic transfer switching, ensuring essential devices—servers, switches, storage, and network appliances—remain powered even during utility outages. With dual 200-240V C14 inlets and ten C13 outputs, it delivers flexible, scalable power distribution that fits compact data centers, edge locations, and IT labs. Built to handle demanding workloads, this PDU is designed to optimize uptime, simplify maintenance, and deliver actionable energy data to help data center managers manage consumption and costs. The TAA-compliant design aligns with procurement requirements for government and enterprise deployments, making it a smart choice for organizations pursuing best-in-class power protection and compliant equipment footprints. Whether you are deploying a modest rack of critical gear or expanding an existing data room, this Series 2.4kW PDU offers the right balance of capacity, manageability, and space efficiency, all backed by the trusted performance of Eaton and Tripp Lite engineering.

• High-efficiency 2.4kW capacity in a compact 1U form factor, enabling robust load support for a focused set of critical devices while preserving valuable rack space for other equipment and cabling. This power rating supports dense server blades, network gear, and storage arrays without overloading the circuit, helping to maintain performance during peak operation and during brief surges.
• Two 200-240V C14 inlets provide flexible dual-power feed configurations, enabling redundant power paths and improved uptime. With dual input capability, you can design a more resilient rack environment, reduce the risk of outages caused by single-point failures, and tailor power provisioning to match your facility’s electrical architecture and redundancy strategy.
• Ten C13 outlets offer centralized, organized power distribution to servers, switches, storage devices, and network appliances. The layout supports clean cable management and balanced loads across outlets, making it easier to monitor energy use and prevent overloading individual circuits while keeping critical gear reachable and protected in a single, tidy unit.
• Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS) with local metering ensures seamless switchover during outages while delivering real-time energy usage data and current draw to help you manage consumption. The ATS capability minimizes downtime by automatically selecting the preferred power source, providing predictable recovery and continuity for critical equipment, all while enabling you to track energy trends at the rack level.
• 1U rack-mount design maximizes available space in standard 19-inch racks and supports straightforward installation in data centers, labs, and edge environments. Its sturdy construction, compact footprint, and accessible outlets make it a practical choice for space-constrained deployments that still require robust power management, efficient cooling, and easy cable access for ongoing service and expansion.

how to install Eaton Tripp Lite Series 2.4kW Single-Phase Local Metered Automatic Transfer Switch PDU

• Prepare your rack space and verify that you have a standard 19-inch rack with adequate clearance for airflow and service access. Confirm electrical code compliance and ensure all safety protocols are in place before installation.
• Mount the PDU in the rack: Align the unit with the rack rails, slide it into position, and secure it with appropriate mounting hardware. Ensure the PDU is level and that its inlets and outlets are easily accessible for connection and maintenance.
• Connect power feeds to the two 200-240V C14 inlets: Use two suitable power cords that match your facility’s electrical infrastructure and ground as required by local codes. Ensure both feeds are correctly provisioned to support dual-source operation.
• Distribute loads to the ten C13 outlets: Plan a balanced load across outlets to prevent overloading a single circuit. Group critical devices and ensure essential equipment remains powered during transitions, paying attention to any high-draw devices that might affect energy efficiency.
• Configure local metering and ATS settings: Access the PDU’s local metering readouts and configure the automatic transfer switch parameters according to your facility’s redundancy and uptime requirements. Establish alert thresholds as needed to monitor energy consumption and to be alerted to abnormal draws or potential faults.
• Perform a functional test: With equipment connected, simulate a power interruption to verify the ATS correctly transfers to the alternate source and that the C13 outlets maintain service during the switchover. Confirm that indicators communicate status clearly and that all cables remain secure after the test.
