Eaton PDUMV20-36 – 2kW Local Metered PDU, 0U Vertical

Product Overview

The Eaton PDUMV20-36 is a 2kW single-phase local metered PDU delivering 100-127V power across 14 NEMA 5-15/20R outlets, built into a 0U vertical, 36-inch rack-mount unit with an L5-20P/5-20P adapter input. It is designed for small computer rooms, network closets, and server room racks that need local load metering on a standard 120V circuit without the added cost of a networked monitoring interface. This compact vertical PDU is well suited for racks with moderate outlet needs and limited horizontal space.

Product Description

Not every 120V rack requires a high-outlet-count PDU, and the PDUMV20-36 is sized for installations with moderate equipment counts that still benefit from local load metering. It delivers 2kW of power across 14 NEMA 5-15/20R outlets, a widely compatible receptacle type for standard rack-mount servers, switches, and other network devices. The input connection includes an L5-20P plug with a 5-20P adapter, giving integrators flexibility to connect to either a locking L5-20P receptacle or a standard 5-20P outlet depending on the facility's electrical setup. The 0U vertical form factor stands 36 inches tall and mounts in a standard 19-inch rack without consuming horizontal rack unit space, making it a practical choice for racks where every U of horizontal space is committed to servers or networking equipment. As a local metered PDU, it provides on-unit load visibility, helping technicians monitor amperage draw and keep loads within safe limits without requiring a network connection or separate monitoring software. This makes the PDUMV20-36 a good fit for small computer rooms, network closets, and server rooms that need dependable 120V power distribution with basic local metering in a compact vertical footprint.
