Model: AP8841 | S/N Ref: 5A1724E04145 | 0U Vertical
200-240V | 30A (24A Derated) | NEMA L6-30P Input | 42 Outlets (36x C13 + 6x C19) | Real-Time Monitoring
Real-Time Active Power Metering for High-Density Datacenter Racks
The APC by Schneider Electric AP8841 (S/N: 5A1724E04145) is a high-density, zero-U (0U) vertical Metered Rack Power Distribution Unit designed for mission-critical IT infrastructure. Featuring active real-time power metering with user-defined alarm thresholds, it actively prevents circuit overloads. Equipped with 42 output receptacles (36x IEC 60320 C13 and 6x IEC 60320 C19) and fed by a heavy-duty NEMA L6-30P input plug (30A/208V-240V), this unit delivers up to 4.99kVA/5.76kVA of clean, monitored power across demanding enterprise enclosures without taking up valuable rack unit space.
Electrical Input & Rack Form Factor Compatibility Notice
- Input Plug & Voltage Requirement: This unit is fitted with a locking NEMA L6-30P (30A, 208V/240V) twist-lock plug. It requires a dedicated 200V–240V circuit and is NOT compatible with standard 120V household outlets (5-15P/5-20P).
- 0U Vertical Dimensions (Height Requirement): The AP8841 measures approximately 70 inches (177.8 cm) in height. Please verify that your IT rack enclosure is at least 42U to 48U tall and features zero-U toolless mounting channels or compatible PDU brackets.
- Metered Only (Non-Switched): This model features active aggregate power metering and remote network status reporting; it does NOT support remote outlet-level on/off switching.
- Output Receptacles: Provides 36x IEC 320 C13 and 6x IEC 320 C19 outlets. Standard equipment power cables (e.g., C14-to-C13 or C20-to-C19 cords) are required and not included.
Key Architectural Advantages
Real-Time Power Metering
Active current draw monitoring via a built-in digital display and Web/SNMP interface ensures balanced load distribution and avoids circuit overloads.
High-Density 42-Outlet Layout
Features 36x IEC C13 and 6x IEC C19 locking-capable receptacles to power dense blade chassis, SAN storage arrays, and dual-corded servers.
Full Network Management
Integrated 10/100 Ethernet interface supports Web GUI, Telnet, CLI, SNMPv1/v2c/v3, and environmental sensor expansion (temperature/humidity).
Zero-U Toolless Mounting
Mounts vertically in standard rack channels via quick-mount pegs, preserving 100% of usable U-space for compute, storage, and networking hardware.
