Liebert PD3-001 2-Outlets PDU
The Liebert PD3-001 2-Outlets PDU is a purpose-built three-phase power distribution unit designed to streamline rack power management in data centers, server rooms, and IT closets. This compact, high-efficiency POD (Power Output Distributor) delivers targeted, reliable electrical supply to critical equipment while helping IT professionals optimize load balance across the three UPS phases. Engineered to work within Liebert’s POD ecosystem, including the ITA2 3-Phase POD family, the PD3-001 provides a practical solution for balancing energy demand, reducing bottlenecks, and increasing uptime in environments where every watt and every amp matters. If you manage network switches, storage arrays, blade servers, and other essential gear, this unit helps you allocate power where it’s needed most without overloading any single phase. Its straightforward, cord-n-plug receptacles simplify connections, minimize cable clutter, and enable efficient management of rack-layer power infrastructure.
- Three-phase balance for improved uptime: The PD3-001 is designed to distribute connected equipment across all three phases of a three-phase UPS, helping to prevent phase overload and maintain stable performance under varying load conditions.
- Two outlets for focused rack-level power: With two carefully positioned receptacles, this PDU provides dedicated power to critical devices while supporting flexible rack organization and cabling.
- Rack-mount ready and IT-friendly: Built to integrate with standard 19-inch racks, the PD3-001 fits neatly into data-center cabinets and enables clean, scalable power distribution for dense deployments.
- Integrated with Liebert POD ecosystem (ITA2): Designed to work in harmony with Liebert POD components, offering seamless expansion and reliable three-phase distribution across multiple units as your rack needs grow.
- Cord-n-plug receptacles for simple connections: The PD3-001 provides straightforward, plug-compatible connections to rack-mounted equipment, reducing setup time and simplifying maintenance.

How to Install Liebert PD3-001 2-Outlets PDU
- Plan the rack layout so that the PD3-001 is positioned to minimize cable clutter and maximize access to outlets for maintenance and airflow.
- Attach the PDU to the rack rails using the standard mounting hardware provided, ensuring a secure fit and proper orientation for easy cable management.
- Connect the PD3-001 to the three-phase UPS output using the appropriate power cord and plug configuration, following facility electrical standards and safety guidelines.
- Route and label power cords clearly, then connect your critical devices to the two outlets. Distribute loads evenly to help balance phases and reduce peak demand on any single leg.
- Power up the UPS and equipment, monitor phase currents if you have compatible monitoring tools, and verify that the PD3-001 is distributing load as intended across the three UPS phases.
Frequently asked questions
Q: What is the Liebert PD3-001 2-Outlets PDU designed to do?
A: It is a three-phase power output distribution unit that provides two outlets to support cord-n-plug connections for rack PDU equipment and protected devices, with a focus on balancing load across the three UPS phases to improve efficiency and uptime in data centers and IT rooms.
Q: How many outlets does this PDU have?
A: The PD3-001 features two outlets, making it ideal for targeted distribution to critical rack equipment while keeping cabling manageable.
Q: Is the PD3-001 compatible with Liebert POD systems?
A: Yes. It is designed to work within the Liebert POD ecosystem, including ITA2 3-Phase POD configurations, for scalable, balanced distribution across multiple units as your deployment grows.
Q: Can I install the PD3-001 in a standard 19-inch rack?
A: Yes. The PD3-001 is intended for rack-mount deployment in standard IT environments, aligning with typical 19-inch rack dimensions for easy integration with other rack-mounted equipment.
Q: Do I need special software to monitor load distribution on the PD3-001?
A: Monitoring requirements vary by environment. While the PDU itself focuses on balanced distribution across three phases, many data centers enhance visibility with Liebert monitoring software or UPS management tools that can report per-phase load and overall system health. The PD3-001 helps facilitate balanced loads, which simplifies monitoring and improves reliability.
