Rittal’s Power System Modules (PSM) provide energy management for existing IT racks and data centres via plug-in modules that simply snap into position within the rack matrix. Each PSM permits energy supply through a vertical rail with a three-phase feed; with each phase rated at 16Amps and each strip capable of supplying 96Amps.
The power rail is supplied empty, allowing the slots to be used flexibly across the enclosure height. The various insert modules to supply the active components are easily snap-fitted into the support rail.
For continuous monitoring, the Active Power System Module offers a 2-digit local LED 7-segment current display on the module showing the current power drawer. In conjunction with CMC-TC, the Active PSM may be activated and deactivated via HTTP and SNMP, allowing any alarms triggered to be reported and quickly rectified.
All Rittal PSM plug-in modules are equipped with integral over-current protection. In the event of excessively high current, only the affected PSM is deactivated. All other modules fitted remain operational.
