Its 2U form factor and twelve C19 outlets make it suited to racks populated with high-draw servers, storage arrays, or network core equipment. For integrators managing 3-phase PDU installation in a data center, the EMIU03-06 provides circuit-level input current metering without the added cost of a fully managed, per-outlet switched platform.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe EMIU03-06 is a 2U, 3-phase metered input rack PDU with twelve IEC C19 output receptacles, designed for high-density racks in data center and colocation cabinet environments where single-phase power is insufficient. Its 3-phase, 5-wire input configuration and 48A-rated IEC 60309 pin-and-sleeve plug support substantially more distributed load per PDU than a single-phase metered unit, which reduces the number of circuits and PDUs required per rack row. As a metered input PDU, it reports aggregate input current so IT and facilities teams can monitor 3-phase circuit loading and balance load across phases, without the added complexity or cost of individual outlet switching. The twelve C19 outlets are sized for higher-draw equipment such as blade server chassis, storage arrays, and core network switches commonly found in 3-phase-fed racks. Its 2U form factor reflects the additional internal components required to handle 3-phase input safely, and it mounts in a standard 19-inch rack alongside single-phase EMIT-series units elsewhere in the same facility. A 6-foot input cord is included, appropriate for 3-phase distribution panels typically located near or within the rack row. Backed by a 3-year limited warranty, the EMIU03-06 is intended for facilities and integrators that have already standardized their electrical infrastructure on 3-phase power and need reliable, rack-level current visibility as part of their overall data center power monitoring strategy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e3-Phase Input Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e — A 3-phase, 5-wire input allows the PDU to distribute substantially more load per unit than a single-phase metered PDU, reducing the number of circuits needed per rack.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTwelve C19 Outlets\u003c\/strong\u003e — Twelve IEC C19 receptacles are sized for higher-draw equipment such as blade chassis, storage arrays, and core network switches.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e48A-Rated IEC 60309 Input Plug\u003c\/strong\u003e — A locking pin-and-sleeve input plug rated for 48A provides a secure, industrial-grade connection to 3-phase distribution circuits.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMetered Input Current Monitoring\u003c\/strong\u003e — Aggregate input current metering helps facilities teams balance load across phases and avoid overloading upstream 3-phase circuits.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e2U Rack-Mount Form Factor\u003c\/strong\u003e — The 2U chassis accommodates the additional internal components required for safe 3-phase power handling while still mounting in a standard 19-inch rack.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e3-Year Limited Warranty\u003c\/strong\u003e — Eaton backs the EMIU03-06 with a 3-year limited warranty, supporting long-term reliability planning in 3-phase-fed data center racks.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTypical Applications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003edata center\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ecolocation cabinet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eserver room\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"overflow-x:auto;-webkit-overflow-scrolling:touch;\"\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInput Voltage\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3-phase (5-wire); exact line voltage not published by manufacturer for this SKU\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInput Current\/Amperage\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e48A\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInput Plug\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIEC 60309 460P9W (3-phase, 5-wire, 60A-rated pin-and-sleeve)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOutput Receptacles\/Outlets\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e(12) IEC C19\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePower Rating (kW\/VA)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNot published by manufacturer\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMounting\/Form Factor\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2U rack-mount, horizontal\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMonitoring Type\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMetered (input current only, no per-outlet metering or switching)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e19 in W x 3.4 in H x 8.5 in D; 18 lb; 6 ft input cord\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCertifications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNot published by manufacturer\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWarranty\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3-year limited warranty\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes the EMIU03-06 require 3-phase electrical infrastructure?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes.
