Eaton PDUMV20HV-36 – 3.7kW Local Metered PDU, 0U Rack

Product Overview

The Eaton PDUMV20HV-36 is a 3.7kW 208/230V single-phase local metered PDU with 16 C13 and 4 C19 outlets, designed for network IT applications, small computer rooms, and equipment rack installations. Built as a 40-inch, 0U vertical rack PDU with a C20/L6-20P input and a 10-ft. cord, it provides real-time local reporting of total load through a built-in digital ammeter. This local metered PDU gives integrators an easy way to monitor amperage draw and prevent overloads without requiring a network connection.

Product Description

Monitoring power draw at the rack level is essential for preventing costly overloads, and the PDUMV20HV-36 addresses this with a built-in digital current meter that reports the total load for all connected equipment in real time. This single-phase 208/230V PDU delivers 3.7kW through 16 C13 and 4 C19 outlets, giving integrators the outlet mix needed to support both standard rack equipment and higher-draw devices from one unit. Plug-lock insert sleeves are included to prevent connected cables from becoming accidentally dislodged, which helps maintain uptime in busy server rooms and network closets where cables are routinely handled. The switchless design also helps prevent an accidental shutdown that could otherwise cause costly downtime. Installation flexibility is a strong feature of this PDU: the 40-inch, 0U unit mounts vertically in an EIA-standard 19-inch rack using included toolless mounting buttons or mounting brackets with user-supplied hardware, and it can also be secured under a counter using the same brackets. The PDU's C20 inlet accepts a variety of 16A international cordsets, and an included 10-ft. (3.05 m) cord with a NEMA L6-20P input plug connects to an AC power source, generator, or protected UPS system. This combination of local load metering, flexible mounting, and a broad outlet mix makes the PDUMV20HV-36 well suited for small computer rooms, network closets, and data center racks that need reliable, monitored power distribution without the cost of a fully networked PDU.

Key Features

• Local Digital Load Metering — a built-in ammeter reports real-time total load, helping prevent overloads and reduce total cost of ownership.
• 16 C13 and 4 C19 Outlets — supplies 200-240V power to a mix of standard and higher-draw rack equipment from one PDU.
• Plug-Lock Insert Sleeves — included sleeves prevent connected power cords from becoming accidentally dislodged.
• Switchless Design — reduces the risk of accidental shutdown that could cause unplanned downtime.
• Flexible Mounting Options — toolless mounting buttons or brackets support 0U vertical rack, wallmount, or under-counter installation.
• C20 Inlet with Included L6-20P Cord — accepts a variety of 16A international cordsets and ships with a 10-ft. cord for facility power, generator, or UPS connection.

Typical Applications

• Small computer rooms requiring local load metering
• Network closets with mixed C13 and C19 equipment
• Data center racks needing 0U vertical power distribution
• Server rooms where switchless PDU design is preferred to avoid accidental shutdown

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this PDU provide remote monitoring?

No, the PDUMV20HV-36 provides local metering only through its built-in digital ammeter; it does not include network-based remote monitoring.

What mounting options are available?

The unit can be mounted vertically in an EIA-standard 19-inch rack using toolless mounting buttons, or secured with brackets for wallmount or under-counter installation.

Can the input cord be swapped for a different plug type?

The C20 inlet accepts a variety of 16A international cordsets, so a different cordset can be used if the included L6-20P cord does not match your facility's power source.

What do the plug-lock insert sleeves do?

They help secure connected power cords in the outlets to prevent accidental disconnects in busy server rooms or network closets.

What is the warranty on this product?

Eaton backs this unit with its standard manufacturer warranty; contact Creation Networks for the current term and any extended coverage options.

Can Creation Networks help verify compatibility with my rack equipment?

Yes, our team can review your outlet and amperage requirements to confirm this PDU or another Eaton model is the right fit for your installation.
