Tripp Lite PDU Hot Swap - Review

Product Review: Tripp Lite PDU Hot Swap with Manual Bypass 15A 6 5-15R 2 5-15P Inputs 1URM (PDUB151U)

As a professional product reviewer, I am always on the lookout for innovative and useful products that can make our lives easier. The Tripp Lite PDU Hot Swap with Manual Bypass 15A 6 5-15R 2 5-15P Inputs 1URM (PDUB151U) is one such product that I recently got to review.

The PDUB151U is a bypass PDU that is designed to maintain continuous power during UPS maintenance. It is a 120V 15A single-phase hot-swap PDU that works in conjunction with your UPS system to keep everything running 24/7/365. It allows you to manually transfer connected equipment to utility power via the PDU’s bypass switch, permitting maintenance or equipment replacement with no interruption of performance.

One of the standout features of the PDUB151U is its dual inputs and manual transfer switch. It includes separate UPS and utility input cables with NEMA 5-15P plugs. The manual transfer switch allows PDU output power to flow from either input. Flip the switch to Bypass to replace the UPS and flip back to Normal once the maintenance or UPS replacement is complete. Equipment connected to the six NEMA 5-15R outlets will continue to operate without interruption.

Another notable feature of the PDUB151U is its eco-switching feature that enables cost-cutting power savings. By enabling the ECO power-saving feature, you can power off a single bank of five controlled 5-15R outlets all at once when the device connected to the master 5-15R outlet is powered off or goes into a low-power consumption mode.

The PDUB151U comes in a durable all-metal housing that can be mounted into 1U of rack space in an EIA-standard 19-inch rack. The packaging includes all the necessary mounting hardware, and if you prefer, you may also use the mounting brackets to secure the PDU to a wall.

The PDUB151U by Tripp Lite is an excellent solution for data center equipment maintenance. It efficiently eliminates downtime and ensures uninterrupted power supply. Its dual inputs and transfer switch make it easy to switch between UPS and commercial power. The eco-switching feature is perfect for cost-cutting power savings.

Moreover, the PDUB151U is easy to install and fits effortlessly into 1U of rack space in an EIA-standard 19-inch rack. The included mounting hardware and mounting brackets offer a secure and flexible mounting option.

In conclusion, the Tripp Lite PDU Hot Swap with Manual Bypass 15A 6 5-15R 2 5-15P Inputs 1URM (PDUB151U) is an excellent product for data center equipment maintenance. Its unique features and capabilities make it a must-have device for businesses and organizations that rely on continuous uptime.
