Overview

HP Power Distribution Rack

 
It's getting harder to manage a data center efficiently, with rising utility bills and ever-increasing demands due to processor power and server density increases. Growing user requests mean heavier strain on servers and air conditioning units in the data center. For many companies, this puts data center costs and performance under the spotlight-making them essential factors for an efficient IT infrastructure. HP helps companies manage their data centers more effectively to decrease power and cooling costs.

The HP Power Distribution Rack (PDR) improves power management in the data center by moving power distribution to the row level. Decentralizing power improves cable management, decreases diagnostic time for problems, and saves installation costs by reducing the size and number of long power feeds required to reach from large wall mounted distribution units. Housed in a single HP Rack 10000 G2 42U rack cabinet, the PDR also saves floor space and allows you to move heat robbing transformers off of the data center floor improving cooling.

Capable of delivering 400 amps (NA) / 200 amps (INTL) redundantly, the HP PDR can power several high density racks with shorter cable runs than conventional site level power distribution systems. Fully redundant inputs and outputs provide dependable power while protecting valuable IT hardware with high quality circuit breakers. Individual branch circuit monitoring and redundant management modules provide the status and power consumption of each attached rack.

Product Features

Target Applications and Markets 24/7 data centers The HP Power Distribution Rack (PDR) enables data centers to provide efficient decentralized power to multiple racks from two separate power sources. Complete redundancy within the HP PDR with its dual inputs supporting dual power panels. High amperage input provides almost twice the capacity of many site level power distribution systems in a smaller foot print. Each HP PDR is capable of providing fully redundant power to 13 racks with 8.6KW loads in each or 23 racks with 4.9KW loads.
Small to Medium size data centers The HP Power Distribution Rack provides flexible and easy to configure power distribution in a small footprint by using a single, standard 10000 G2 42U rack. The transformer-less design helps keep unnecessary heat out of the data center and improves air conditioning. Pre-configured power drops reduce clutter and improve installation and change management while the PDR's monitoring capabilities insure you can always determine status and power consumption of each attached rack.
Collocation Facilities The HP Power Distribution Rack allows for easy changes in power configurations across multiple racks. Individual branch circuit monitoring allows power usage to be tracked and recorded on a rack by rack basis.

Customer Challenges/
Requirements
  • Easy access to power multiple servers, storage and other rack mount equipment
  • Reduce cabling to improve airflow
  • Ease installation and upgrades to power distribution
  • Accurately monitor each branch circuit to evaluate power usage

Model Features – Power Distribution Rack Fully redundant Dual power paths from input through output including dual management displays
Dual high amperage three phase inputs Fewer large cable runs to the PDR increase efficiency
Dual 42 pole position breaker panels Each panel is feed by a separate input source and provides for 100-120VAC, 208-240VAC, or 3 phase outputs in any combination
Dual Transient Voltage Surge Suppression (TVSS) A TVSS module protect s each input from passing transients and surges through to the attached equipment
Dual management displays One front and one rear display provide redundancy and ease configuration
High quality branch circuit breakers for superior performance Commercial grade circuit breakers provide fault protection to individual branch circuits and are available in single pole, dual pole and three pole styles in a variety of amperage ratings
Power monitoring Each PDR chassis provides local monitoring of the both input loads as well as individual branch circuits. Alarms provide notice of impending issues before problems arise
Preconfigured metal clad whips Precut lengths and preassembled whips save installation time and cost and are certified for a variety of installations

Installation
  • The HP Power Distribution Rack must be installed by a qualified electrical contractor
  • It is strongly recommended that the HP PDR be bayed to other racks in the row or secured by HP 10000 G2 Stabilizing feet or 600W 10000 G2 Rack Tie Down kit
  • If power cables are run above the racks the HP Rack Top Cable Trays are recommended
  • Start up and Commissioning service is included at no additional charge and must be completed to validate warranty protection. Start up and commissioning service may be performed Monday through Friday during standard business hours. Optional 7x24 Start up and commissioning service is available.
