Barco E2 Gen2 Power Supply - R9801983

Product Overview

The Barco E2 Gen2 Power Supply (R9801983) is a replacement power module for the Gen2 revision of the Barco E2 Event Master processor. It is identified by its red handle, which distinguishes it from the earlier Gen1 supply. The module provides the E2's hot-swappable, redundant power architecture so the processor can keep running through a supply fault. It is a service and spare part for E2 Gen2 deployments.

Product Description

This power supply, pictured with its red Gen2 handle, slots into the E2 Gen2 chassis as part of the processor's redundant power system. The red handle is the visual identifier that separates the Gen2 supply from the Gen1 unit, so it is important to match the correct revision. Keeping a spare on hand lets rental and install teams restore full power redundancy quickly after a fault.

For Gen1 E2 and S3 processors, the corresponding supply is the Barco E2 Gen1/S3 Power Supply. Browse the full Barco collection for Event Master processors, power modules and transport accessories.
