In power distribution strips for 3-phase systems, the individual phases are color-coded

Power Distribution Unit

Standardized, high-quality components are required for the creation of systems in data centers. They need to support an easy and automated assembly process in order to ensure zero defect.

We are a well-known provider of internationally approved IEC appliance connectors and prove ourselves in this market as a competent and reliable partner of connector systems for industrial equipment.  

The equipment of power supply systems have been standardized throughout the world with the aim to guarantee a high level of reliability and globally available solutions. The demands on the operational reliability of all components and materials users will appreciate. The SCHURTER offer is based on the IEC 60320 standard for globally approved products, thus guaranteeing a perfect interaction between devices plugs and sockets, regardless of the selected components.

Light pipes

For some SCHURTER device socket outlets for PDUs, the installation of light pipes is possible.

The light pipes installed in the outlet are designed to channel light coming from LEDs mounted on a printed circuit board to the surface of the outlet. Each outlet generally has its own circuitry and, depending on the complexity of the monitoring system, may require several types of indicating functions. The outlets are capable of providing up to four light pipes, one in each of the four corners of the connector. The side of the outlet with the ground pin provides extra space around the two corners, allowing for the most prominent and thus popular position.

In addition, there is no need for separately installed optical fibers or LEDs which reduces costs.

V-Lock system

The V-Lock cord retention system can be plugged in to IEC 60320 at 10A and 16A.

With V-Lock, the power connector is equipped with a pin that interlocks with a special notch in the inlet on the power cord and thus reliably prevents the cord from being pulled out unintentionally. The advantage of this scheme is that no clamping system specific to a unit’s power inlet or retaining bracket must be adapted and attached. The lock is released by pressing a finger on the disengaging lever. This lever is easily identified due to its bright yellow colour, a feature that also distinguishes this scheme from conventional pluggable power supply systems.

The V-Lock cord retention system prevents unintentional pulling out or loosening of the power cord in a simple way.

Overcurrent protection and colour coding

A primary fuse on the respective phase ensures that the permissible supply capacity of 2.5 kW, for example, is not exceeded. Likewise, an overload of modern power distribution strips can be avoided with multiple IEC outlets can be prevented by blocking unused outlets with protective caps known as Tamper Resistant Outlet Locks.

Power distribution strips in 3-phase systems are ideal for color-coding the individual phases. Various IEC sockets of SCHURTER types J and F are therefore no longer only available in black, but also in white and grey. In the often poorly lit server and control cabinets of a data center, this makes it easier to visually distinguish the individual phases.
