Power detector and switch module PowerEgg2, 110/230 V AC, max. 8 A, IEC C14/C13 - HW group 600599

A power failure on a server or UPS should raise an alarm at once, and in an emergency a load may need to be shed on command. PowerEgg2 handles both in a pass-through module rated for 8 A: voltage detection via an isolated relay output and output switching via a digital signal.

Benefits

• Two jobs in one unit: detects mains presence and switches the connected load.
• Simple to insert: IEC-320 C14 inlet and C13 outlet.
• Galvanically isolated: control and switched circuits are electrically separated, status reported via relay contact rated 120 V AC / 60 V DC at 1 A.
• Flexible control: dry contact, relay, open collector or a 3-12 V voltage.
• Low self-consumption: 13 mA at 230 V.
• Certified: TÜV-SÜD Certificate of Safety.

Applications

• Power failure alarms for servers, network equipment and distribution boards
• Monitoring UPS input and output voltage
• Remote power-up and shutdown of servers in the server room
• Triggering emergency cooling or ventilation in plant rooms
• Load shedding while running on battery power

Compatibility

• Detector output to any digital input (DI) on Poseidon, Damocles or I/O Controller units
• Control input driven by any digital output (DO) on Poseidon, Damocles or I/O Controller units
