Ensure that you are receiving alerts on critical events

PX3 PDUs monitor a variety of electrical and environmental parameters.  You can receive alerts in anything that get monitored – inlet data, outlet data, circuit breaker status, unbalanced loads and power factor to name a few. In order to receive alerts successfully, you need to ensure the following actions have been completed:

What Is Environmental Monitoring?

Posted on September 18, 2019 by Jessica Ciesla

Data centers come in all shapes and sizes. They are built to securely store copious amounts of data. However, what many people don't know is that in order to hold all of the data, these centers must also consume a large amount of energy. In fact, some estimates show that data centers consume 1.8 percent of the total United States energy consumption every year. The large amount of energy that is consumed, as well as other factors, makes environmental monitoring a key component of data center management.

Different Types of Rack PDUs

Posted on September 10, 2019 by Jessica Ciesla

In layman's terms, a rack Power Distribution Unit (PDU) is a device that can be fitted with multiple outlets to effectively control and distribute electricity. The two main types of rack PDUs can be classified as either non-intelligent PDUs or intelligent PDUs. Creating the proper configuration for your data center will require you to first understand the key differences between these two types of rack PDUs.

Power Monitoring And Metering

Posted on August 28, 2019 by Jessica Ciesla

In the current digital age, it is expected that data centers will continue to rise in both power consumption and complexity. In fact, it is predicted that the use of data will grow to exceed 160 zettabytes by 2025.  As the age of big data continues to grow, the challenge for data center operators will be to discover how they support additional data, remain energy efficient, and ultimately reduce costs. Power monitoring and metering are the two key components that will help data centers succeed over the next decade.
