Raritan PX3 36-Outlets Monitored PDU

The Raritan PX3 36-Outlets PDU delivers intelligent, scalable power distribution for demanding data centers, server rooms, and edge environments. This 0U, vertical, rack-mountable PDU is designed to consolidate power management in a dense rack footprint while giving you granular visibility into the power health of every connected device. With 36 IEC 60320 C13 outlets and a monitored design, you can track voltage, current, and power at a per-outlet level, enabling smarter capacity planning, energy efficiency, and uptime protection. Input power is provided through a robust NEMA L6-30P (2P3W) plug, supporting 230 V AC operation, making it a dependable choice for sites that require reliable, high-quality power distribution in mission-critical environments.

Engineered for modern IT ecosystems, the PX3 combines rugged construction with intelligent monitoring capabilities. Through a built-in RJ-45 network interface, administrators gain remote access to outlet-level telemetry, enabling proactive control, alerting, and integration with DCIM or other monitoring platforms. The compact 0U form factor is ideal for high-density racks, freeing up valuable space without sacrificing reliability or expandability. Whether you’re deploying new infrastructure or upgrading existing racks, the PX3 provides the critical visibility and reliability needed to optimize workloads, control energy usage, and minimize unplanned downtime.

How to Install Raritan PX3 36-Outlets PDU

• Prepare the rack. Ensure the rack rails and mounting hardware are compatible with 0U vertical PDUs and that there is adequate clearance for cooling and cable management.
• Mount the PDU. Secure the PX3 in the rack using standard hardware, positioning it in a convenient location for cable routing and accessibility to outlets on the front or sides, as recommended by the manufacturer.
• Connect the input power. Plug the NEMA L6-30P (2P3W) power cord into a 230 V AC power source appropriate for your data-center electrical infrastructure. Verify the supply circuit is rated to handle the anticipated load.
• Populate and organize outlets. Connect IT equipment to IEC 60320 C13 outlets, keeping high-draw devices distributed to balance load and ensuring adequate airflow around cables and equipment.
• Configure monitoring and alerts. Connect the PDU to your network via the RJ-45 port. Configure IP addressing, enable voltage/current monitoring, and set alert thresholds for power events, voltage excursions, and current surges through your DCIM or monitoring tools.
