Description

Vertiv 13690 Metered Surge PDU

Overview

The Vertiv 13690 is a 0U vertical rackmount PDU designed to deliver reliable power to critical IT equipment. It features built-in surge protection with a 720 joule rating and a local digital RMS current meter, providing real-time power consumption metrics. This unit is ideal for environments that lack facility-level surge suppression or require an additional layer of protection for sensitive hardware. The 20A thermal breaker offers overcurrent protection, preventing accidental overloads. This PDU is 100% tested for reliability and functionality.

Compatibility

This PDU is designed for standard 120V IT infrastructure. It utilizes a NEMA 5-20P plug and provides twenty NEMA 5-20R receptacles, suitable for equipment with standard 20A plugs. The 10ft power cord offers flexibility in rack placement. It is compatible with most standard server racks and cabinets.

Installation Notes

The 0U vertical form factor is designed to fit within the side airspace of most standard server racks, minimizing interference with other equipment. The 12/3 AWG power cable is rated for 20A. Operating temperature range is 10-45°C (50-113°F).
