Módulo de distribución de alimentación IT APC 3 polos 5 hilos 16A IEC309 980cm unidad de distribución de alimentación (PDU)

APC PDM3516IEC-980 is a power distribution module designed for IT and electrical installations. It provides a 3-pole, 5-wire configuration rated for 16 A, enabling organized and safe distribution of electrical power for rack-mounted or panel-mounted setups. The module supports both single-phase and three-phase dependent configurations, offering a compact solution for delivering power to servers, network devices and other connected equipment in data closets, server rooms and industrial control cabinets.

Advantages

The APC PDM3516IEC-980 offers a standardized 3-pole, 5-wire design with a clear 16 A current rating that simplifies planning and installation. Its layout is intended to reduce cable clutter and improve accessibility to outlets in racks or panels. Built to meet the needs of IT environments, the module helps maintain organized power distribution and reduces the risk of overload by providing a defined amperage limit. The physical format supports integration into standard enclosures and contributes to a predictable power topology for maintenance and expansion.

Suitable for

• Power distribution in server racks and network cabinets
• Equipment rooms, data closets and edge computing sites
• Panel-mounted electrical installations requiring a 3-pole, 5-wire layout
• Distributing power to servers, switches, storage devices and peripheral equipment

Key specifications

• Poles and conductors: 3-pole, 5-wire configuration
• Rated current: 16 A
• Intended installation: rack-mounted or panel-mounted integration
• Supported supply types: single-phase or three-phase dependent setups
• Application environment: IT equipment racks, telecommunications and industrial control enclosures

How to use

Install the APC PDM3516IEC-980 into a compatible rack or panel following local electrical codes and the enclosure manufacturer’s instructions. Connect the incoming supply conductors to the module’s input terminals according to the selected wiring scheme (single-phase or three-phase dependent). Route and secure outgoing cables to the equipment being powered, ensuring conductor sizes and protective devices match the 16 A rating. After connections are completed and verified, restore supply power and confirm that all outlets provide expected voltage and that loads do not exceed the rated current.

Recommendations

Use the module within its 16 A rating and verify compatibility with the installation’s protective devices. Install overcurrent protection and earth fault protection as required by local regulations. Periodically inspect connections for tightness and signs of heating. For complex three-phase distribution or high-density racks, plan load balancing and allow capacity margins to avoid nuisance tripping and to preserve equipment reliability.
