Description
Engineered for demanding data centers, the Raritan PX3 36-Outlets PDU delivers reliable, flexible power distribution in a compact 0U, rack-mountable enclosure. Designed for high-density racks, it consolidates 36 outlets into a single footprint, including 30 IEC 60320 C13 receptacles and 6 IEC 60320 C19 receptacles, all powered from a secure NEMA L6-30P input. Optimized for 208V single-phase environments, this PDU provides a robust, space-saving solution that enhances uptime and simplifies cable management for servers, storage, and networking gear in busy cabinets.
- 0U, rack-mountable footprint: Sits flush in a standard 19" rack, preserving vertical space for active equipment and improving front-to-back airflow for better cooling.
- 36 versatile outlets: 30 x IEC 60320 C13 and 6 x IEC 60320 C19 receptacles offer broad compatibility for mixed IT gear in a single centralized unit, reducing the need for multiple power strips.
- Secure, locking input: NEMA L6-30P inlet eliminates accidental disconnections and helps keep critical equipment powered during busy operations and maintenance cycles.
- Single-phase, efficient power distribution: Reliable, straightforward power delivery suitable for most data-center and IT closet deployments with simplified cabling and predictable load behavior.
- Durable design for high-demand environments: Built to support continuous operation, streamline cable management, and improve overall rack organization in busy cabinets while withstanding daily use.

How to install Raritan PX3 36-Outlets PDU
- Prepare the rack: Ensure the chosen rack location has adequate ventilation and airflow. Verify that the rack’s rated load can support the combined power requirements of connected devices and the PDU itself to avoid overloading the circuit.
- Mount the PDU: Align the PX3 with the 19" rack rails and secure it using the appropriate screws for your rack type. Confirm that the PDU sits securely and remains level, with no strain on cables or connectors.
- Connect the inlet power: Plug the NEMA L6-30P input cord into a compatible L6-30R receptacle or power path supplied by your data center. Ensure the corresponding circuit breaker is sized to support the expected load of connected devices and leave headroom for startup surges.
- Route and manage cables: Route IEC C13 and C19 cables neatly to maintain proper airflow and minimize cable tension. Use built-in or external cable management features to keep cables organized, labeled, and accessible for maintenance or replacements.
- Power up and verify: Power on the PDU and verify that all outlets are delivering power to their respective devices. Check that the locking input remains secure and that cables are free of obstruction to airflow. Perform a basic load check and document connections for future reference and routine maintenance.
