Original Press Release:
Pulizzi Engineering, Inc. Announces the VPC3106 Series, Vertical 3 Phase Power Distribution Unit
Santa Ana, CA-Pulizzi Engineering, Inc. announces the release of the new VPC3106 Series of 3 phase vertical power distribution units. The series is designed for maximum power density, by providing 72 amps of output power at 120 volts single phase. The unit has (24) 15 amp "three-prong" receptacles (NEMA 5-15R), or optionally 20 amp receptacles (NEMA 5-20R). This allows a continuous power draw of 3 amps per receptacle, if all receptacles are used. All that power is packed into a very slim, tall package. The unit is 70" tall and only 2" deep (excluding the circuit breaker box). The vertical style mounting requires no rack space by allowing the unit to mount in the back or side of the cabinet (referred to as a "0U" rack mount). The height of the unit allows it to evenly distribute power the length of the electronic cabinet. This places power outlets in line with the installed equipment. This reduces cable clutter and simplifies installation.
The key advantage of the VPC3106 series over traditional rack mount power distribution is in the power density. Traditional power distribution is single phase and low amperage, 15 amps. The VPC3106 has the power to replace six of these traditional power distribution units. This reduces electrical wiring costs by reducing the number of circuits that need to be run. (Less wire pulls, less electrical boxes and less circuit breakers.) The cabinet installation is also simplified by replacing six cables with one larger cable. This power density is required for demanding applications such as blade servers, telecommunication and broadcast equipment.
The VPC3106 series is made with rugged steel and has a black finish. The unit is 68" tall without the mounting brackets and 70" with the standard brackets installed. (Optional brackets allow mounting to virtually any rack or any location.) The input power connector is a 3 phase 120/208 volt 30 amp, NEMA L21-30P, connector. The VPC3106 series conies standard with a 15-foot power cable. There are three circuit breakers, each protecting a section of eight outlets. The circuit breakers meet UL and NEC requirements for branch circuit protection, ensuring safe and code friendly installations. Each circuit breaker has an indicator light. To ensure secure connections, the VPC3106 is compatible with the cable restraint and management system, KIT-CABLRES-23 (ordered separately). The VPC3106 series is available in several versions with list prices starting at $611.00 and OEM quantity discounts available.
