PDI's Branch Circuit Monitoring System (BCMS)
can measure and remotely monitor the current and voltage on
each individual branch circuit. There are different monitoring
packages available from PDI for your BCMS. PDI's BCMS is a
patented technology. PDI received patent number US
693309516 B1 for this technology.

Computer Cables |
| UL Listed Cables/Breakers |
 |
UL Listed Cables/Breakers are shielded in a
flexible, steel conduit encased in a copper shield to prevent
electrical noise (EMI) from other cables and equipment in your
data center. By labeling each cable at each end, your site
manager/contractor can easily and efficiently pick out how
your computer equipment is cabled. Additionally, by color
coordinating the cables, you can make the initial installation
and future upgrades easier and more efficient. |

Power Distribution Units |
| Powerpak Power
Distribution Unit (PDU) |
 |
PDI's Powerpak Power Distribution Unit (PDU)
protects your critical computer equipment from electrical
noise and spikes and acts as a single point reference ground.
Each PDU can be individually configured to meet your needs for
isolation, voltage transformation, harmonic reduction and
voltage regulation with virtually limitless distribution
options. Built-in system monitoring and diagnostics facilitate
load balancing and warn of potential threats to your critical
equipment. |

Powerpak Remote Power Panel (RPP) |
 |
PDI's Powerpak Remote Power Panel (RPP) is a
freestanding distribution system designed to increase the
usable kVA of your Power Distribution Units (PDUs). As your
Data Center evolves from a few high powered devices to many
low powered devices, your system becomes limited by the number
of distribution points on your PDUs. PDI's RPP gives you the
added pole space your system needs. Custom configured in a
freestanding enclosure, the RPP gives you the added
flexibility and room for expansion by placing your power
connection points closer to your equipment loads. Units are
rated for 208v applications and each can provide up to 168
additional single phase circuits. Optional equipment now
includes the Branch Circuit Monitoring System (BCMS) and local
monitoring.

WaveStar monitoring built into our PDUs give
you real-time control of actual loads down to the individual
breaker level. This important decision-making tool integrates
PDI’s BCMS and Intelligent Monitoring System so you control
system-wide performance, breaker power levels, along with
current and voltage data. This means improved, more timely
decisions can be made based on real-time load and capacity
data, all in one interactive and monitoring package. The PDI
WaveStar PowerHub PDU provides the highest available power
density of any PDU. PDI’s award winning intelligent monitoring
system is standard with these units. |

QwikSwitch |
| Rack/Wall Mounted Static
Switch |
 |
If you have multiple AC sources available, you
can now take advantage of the seamless connection to long term
standby power via the Qwikswitch™ and its patented “out of
phase” switching. The Qwikswitch™ maintains continuous power
to critical control systems without the limitations of
conventional contactors or UPS type systems. This single phase
static transfer switch is available in either a rack mount or
panel mount configuration. |

Static Transfer Switches |
| SBR Series |
 |
PDI’s SBR Series Static Automatic Transfer
Switch supplies your critical loads with a choice between two
available sources of electrical power. The SBR continually
monitors power quality and will automatically transfer to an
alternate source without interruption of power to even your
most sensitive critical loads. With a sense and transfer time
of less than 4ms, the SBR represents the highest performance
power switching solution available for the most critical
applications. |

Quality Assurance
Quality Assurance at PDI is an ongoing process. As an order is
manufactured, it goes through a five-step quality control
program. The parts are inspected as they arrive from the
vendors and when the sub-assembly is complete. After the
assembly inspection, the unit is then checked before and after
it enters the test area. On its way to the final assembly
area, the unit is completely inspected to ensure that it
complies with the equirements of the listing agency (i.e. UL,
CSA, ETL, IEEE, etc.) and that it meets the customer's
specifications. All products are built and inspected for
compliance to the applicable codes or standards (i.e. NEC,
IEEE, NEMA, MIL-STD-462, etc.) for the appropriate product
class. Only after passing all inspections is the unit prepared
for shipping and delivery to the customer. |
