Power distribution unit Bachmann BN ESSENTIAL Metered — 24×C13, 6×C19, 6×LS, 3.0 m CEE 32/5p

Bachmann BN ESSENTIAL Metered is a rack-mount power distribution unit designed for professional IT environments. The unit offers 24 C13 outlets, 6 C19 outlets and 6 LS outlets supplied from a 3.0 m CEE 32/5p power lead. Built for data centers, server rooms and network cabinets, this PDU provides metered power monitoring and consolidated power distribution in a compact rack-friendly format.

Advantages

The PDU combines mixed outlet types to support a variety of IT equipment and peripherals without additional adapters. Metered power monitoring enables centralized observation of power draw for planning and capacity management. A 3.0 m CEE 32/5p power lead simplifies connection to three-phase supply points while the rack-mount design saves cabinet space and ensures neat cable routing. The construction is intended for continuous operation in professional environments with predictable power delivery.

Suitable for

• Data centers and server rooms requiring centralized power distribution and metering
• Network and communications cabinets with mixed-device outlet needs
• Small to medium-sized IT racks where space-efficient, rack-mount PDUs are required
• Environments using three-phase CEE 32/5p supply connections

Key specifications

• Output connectors: 24× C13, 6× C19, 6× LS
• Input power lead: 3.0 m CEE 32/5p
• Form factor: Rack-mount PDU
• Power monitoring: Metered (local measurement of power draw)
• Intended use: Professional IT environments (data centers, server rooms, network cabinets)

How to use

Install the PDU in a standard equipment rack using the rack-mount provisions supplied, aligning the unit for accessible outlets and cable routing. Connect the 3.0 m CEE 32/5p power lead to a compatible three-phase supply outlet that matches site electrical specifications. Plug IT equipment into appropriate outlet types (C13, C19 or LS) according to device inlet requirements. Use the metered readout to observe current power consumption for load balancing and capacity planning; follow site protocols for power sequencing and safe shutdown where applicable.

Recommendations

Verify compatibility of connected devices with the available outlet types and the supply voltage and phase configuration. Leave appropriate headroom for total connected load when planning rack power allocation and use the metering function to monitor trends over time. Ensure installation by qualified personnel in accordance with local electrical regulations.
