Detailed Description

Independent Control of Outlets

The IsoTek Delta Smart PDU allows each of its 16 C14 IEC output sockets to be controlled independently. This includes the ability to name each outlet based on the connected electronics, turn on/off each outlet separately, and perform remote reboots.

Programmable Start-Up Sequences

Users can program delay times between each outlet’s activation during start-up, ensuring a sequential and controlled power-up process. This feature is particularly useful for systems that require specific components to be powered in a particular order.

Comprehensive Surge Protection

The Delta Smart PDU offers 54,000A instantaneous protection against power surges and voltage spikes. It employs an array of Voltage Dependent Resistors (VDRs) that activate sequentially based on the severity of the surge, ensuring both the protection of the PDU itself and the connected devices.

Noise Reduction Capabilities

The unit addresses Differential Mode and Common Mode mains noise, commonly generated by electrical appliances and RFI (Radio Frequency Interference). Each outlet is independently cleaned to prevent cross-contamination of noise between connected devices, maintaining high-quality power delivery.

High-Quality Component Construction

IsoTek uses premium-grade electrical components, including high-purity copper with silver plating and Fluorinated Ethylene Propylene (FEP) dielectrics, to ensure low resistance and high performance. The internal wiring is meticulously designed to maintain low impedance and high current capacity.

Control and Integration

The Delta Smart PDU can be controlled through multiple interfaces, including RS232, LAN, and WiFi. It is designed to integrate seamlessly with Control 4 and Crestron automation systems, making it a versatile choice for modern AV setups.

System Link Capability

The unit includes a System Link outlet for connecting multiple PDUs together while maintaining a star-earthed reference, optimizing the grounding and ensuring consistent power quality across all connected units.
