3.8kW 200240V Single-Phase ATS/Local Metered PDU - 8 C13 and 2 C19 Outlets, Dual C20 Inlets, 12 ft. Cords, 1U, TAA

The PDUMH20HVATS is a 3.8kW 200240V single-phase ATS/local metered PDU built for rack environments that need dependable power distribution, mixed outlet support, and better visibility at the point of installation. In a compact 1U form factor, it provides dual C20 inlets, 8 C13 outlets, 2 C19 outlets, and 12 ft. input cords to support practical deployment in IT, AV, and edge racks. For teams managing uptime-sensitive equipment, the automatic transfer switch capability adds value in dual-source applications, while local metering helps staff verify load conditions directly at the rack.

Ideal Use Cases

This model is well suited to installations where rack space is limited but power flexibility is still important. The combination of C13 and C19 outlets makes it easier to support mixed equipment types within the same rack, while the 200240V single-phase design aligns with higher-voltage rack power environments.

• Network and server racks with a mix of standard and higher-draw equipment
• Commercial AV equipment racks that need compact rack-level power distribution
• Edge deployments and distributed IT locations where local load visibility is useful
• Dual-source environments that benefit from ATS capability
• Procurement-driven projects that require a TAA-compliant product

Why Choose This Model

What makes this PDU appealing is its balance of resilience, simplicity, and rack efficiency. The dual C20 inlets support dual-source power scenarios, helping teams design around continuity requirements without moving to a larger rack power device. The 1U profile preserves valuable rack space for active equipment, and the 12 ft. cords provide added reach when source connections are not directly adjacent to the rack.

It is also a practical fit for buyers who need both outlet variety and straightforward monitoring. With 8 C13 and 2 C19 outlets, the unit can serve a broader range of connected equipment than a single-outlet-type design. Local metering adds immediate, on-site awareness of rack load, which is useful during commissioning, moves/adds/changes, and routine checks.

Installation and Integration

The 1U rack-mount design helps this model integrate cleanly into standard rack deployments without consuming excessive space. Its dual C20 inlets and 12 ft. cords offer more flexibility when planning power paths to available sources. For installations using dual-source power, the ATS functionality supports a more resilient rack power strategy while keeping the deployment straightforward.

Before installation, confirm that the rack environment is designed for 200240V single-phase power and that connected devices use the appropriate C13 or C19 connections. During setup and after any equipment changes, local metering can be used to verify load conditions at the rack.

• 1U form factor supports space-conscious rack layouts
• Dual C20 inlets help accommodate dual-source designs
• 12 ft. cords can simplify source reach in real-world rack placements
• Mixed C13/C19 outlet configuration supports varied equipment connections

Performance Highlights

Rated for 3.8kW, this PDU is intended for rack-level power distribution in environments that need structured, high-voltage single-phase power delivery. The outlet mix supports both common rack devices and equipment that requires C19 connectivity, reducing the need to split loads across multiple basic distribution units just to accommodate connector differences.

• 3.8kW power capacity
• 200240V single-phase operation
• 8 C13 outlets and 2 C19 outlets
• Dual C20 inlets
• Automatic transfer switch capability for dual-source applications
• Local metering for at-rack load visibility
• 12 ft. input cords
• Compact 1U rack design
• TAA compliant

What Makes It Different

This model stands out by combining several practical features in a single compact chassis: ATS support, local metering, dual C20 inlets, and a mixed C13/C19 outlet layout. That combination makes it especially attractive for professionally managed racks where uptime considerations, outlet flexibility, and direct load awareness all matter. Instead of choosing between a compact footprint and more deployment-ready functionality, buyers get both in one 1U unit.

It is also differentiated by buyer fit. This is not just a basic strip for adding outlets; it is a better match for IT administrators, AV integrators, and facility teams who want a rack PDU aligned with real installation needs such as dual-source planning, on-site monitoring, and procurement requirements tied to TAA compliance.

Final Assessment

For racks that need 200240V single-phase power distribution with ATS capability, local metering, and support for both C13 and C19-connected equipment, the PDUMH20HVATS is a strong, deployment-friendly choice. Its 3.8kW capacity, dual C20 inlets, 12 ft. cords, and space-saving 1U design make it a practical solution for IT closets, AV racks, edge sites, and other managed environments where resilience, visibility, and efficient rack use are all priorities.
