How is the overload protection function of Basic Switched PDUs implemented?

The overload protection function of Basic Switched PDUs is a vital safety feature that ensures the reliability, safety and stability of power distribution through a series of carefully designed mechanisms. These PDUs have built-in advanced current monitoring and limiting systems. Through high-precision current sensors, PDUs can accurately monitor the current of each output port in real time. Once the current of a certain port exceeds the preset safe range, the PDUs will take quick and automatic action to cut off the power supply to the port. This rapid and accurate response mechanism effectively avoids equipment damage or even fire risks caused by excessive current.

In addition to current monitoring and limiting, Basic Switched PDUs also have power limiting and distribution functions. These PDUs intelligently manage the total power output of the entire device to ensure that the power input carrying capacity is not exceeded. When the total power of all ports approaches or exceeds the limit of the power supply, PDUs will automatically adjust power allocation, possibly by shutting down some non-critical ports or reducing the power output of other ports to balance the load. This intelligent power management not only protects the power supply device itself, but also ensures the stable operation of other important devices.

Overheating protection is also an important part of the overload protection function of Basic Switched PDUs. Temperature sensors are installed inside PDUs to monitor the temperature inside the equipment in real time. Once the temperature exceeds the safe range, PDUs will automatically trigger the overheat protection mechanism to reduce heat generation by reducing power output or closing some ports, thereby preventing damage caused by overheating of the device.
