APC by Schneider Electric PDM3520IEC309-1680 Power Distribution Module

Overview

The APC by Schneider Electric PDM3520IEC309-1680 is a single-receptacle power distribution module designed for rack-mount IT equipment. It provides a robust connection point for devices requiring 20A, 240V input via an IEC 309 connector, simplifying power delivery in data center or network closet environments. This module is suitable for installations where a dedicated, high-amperage outlet is needed for critical hardware. The PDM3520IEC309-1680 is built for reliable power distribution, ensuring consistent operation for your sensitive electronics.

Compatibility

This power distribution module is compatible with standard 20A, 240V IEC 309 (also known as CEEform or Commando) connectors. It is designed to integrate into standard 19-inch rack enclosures, commonly found in IT infrastructure. While not specific to a particular brand of IT equipment, it serves as a direct power interface for servers, switches, or other rack-mounted devices that utilize this type of power inlet. Ensure your upstream power source and circuit breaker are rated for 20A to safely utilize this module.

Installation Notes

The PDM3520IEC309-1680 requires a standard 19-inch rack for mounting. Its physical dimensions are 17.5 inches wide, 16 inches deep, and 5 inches high. The unit accepts a 220V AC input and provides a 230V AC output through its single IEC 309 receptacle. Installation involves securing the module within the rack and connecting its input power cord to an appropriate power source. Ensure all connections are secure and that the power source can support the 20A load. Environmental compliance includes RoHS standards.
