VT-PDU 4MS Switched & Metered-by-outlet PDU

Description

Vutlan VT-PDU 4MS Remotely Switched and Metered-by-Outlet PDU is a small unit with x4 outlets, 110/240V. Each of the four IEC-320 C13 outlets of this Power Distribution Unit can be independently controlled (On / Off / Reset / Toggle) and metered. Electrical parameters (Voltage, Current, Power, Frequency, Active / Real power, Active / Real energy) are measured with high accuracy at each outlet. The device features a LAN port (and a built-in Ethernet switch) for connecting to a LAN.

Outputs can be controlled in the device Web Interface, using a mobile app, or over various M2M API protocols (REST API, SNMP).

Notable Features:

  • Environmental Monitoring: A CAN port allows connecting digital CAN sensors and CAN extensions  in a chain to continuously measure essential environmental factors to ensure optimal conditions, preventing equipment damage and operational failures.

  • Flexible Configuration: Users can manage sensors, elements, notifications, triggers, timers, and logic schemes, allowing for tailored monitoring solutions that meet specific needs.

  • User-Friendly Interface: A built-in web interface has 29 languages and is very easy to use.

  • Remote Connectivity: Mobile-friendly web interface offers easy management and monitoring of all outputs and sensors through a mobile browser.

  • USB camera: USB100 Dome camera can be purchased separately and record a JPEG stream in the alarm event.

  • Logs: SDHC or SDXC memory cards up to 512 GB allow for storing data for up to 5 years.

Accessories

Web Interface

The Vutlan web interface provides users with a powerful and intuitive platform to manage and monitor the device, outlets and sensors. It's designed for ease of use while offering advanced features for real-time control and automation.

The Web UI is built-in into every Vutlan PDU and can be accessed by an IP address.

Key Features:

  • Outlet management, monitoring, & switching: Easily manage outlets, monitor values or switch On/Off outlets manually or using logic schemes.
  • Dashboard Overview: Users can monitor live data from outlet parameters, sensors and devices, providing instant visibility into environmental conditions, power systems, and other critical parameters.

  • Customizable Alerts and Notifications: Alarms can be configured to trigger notifications via E-mail, SNMP Trap, HTTP request, Web-to-SMS.

  • Logical Schemes: The interface allows users to create logical automation schemes to automate actions based on specific triggers (e.g., restarting a server in response to a PING).

  • Historical Data & Logs: Access detailed logs of events and sensor data, helping with system audits, performance analysis, and troubleshooting.

  • Multi-User Access: Provides different permission levels for multiple users, ensuring secure and organized management across teams.

  • Remote Management: The web interface is accessible remotely, enabling users to manage and monitor systems from anywhere.

  • Mobile friendly: The Web Interface is optimized for mobile and tablet devices. It can be viewed and controlled from any mobile browser.

Record & send video notifications

A USB100 USB camera can be easily connected to any Vutlan monitoring system via a USB port, allowing it to capture and record video in the MJPEG stream format. USB100 is purchased separately.

  • Alarm-Triggered Recording: When an alarm event occurs, the camera automatically records the video stream.

  • Flexible Storage Options: The recorded video can be saved to an SD card, or USB flash drive, or uploaded to an FTP log.

  • Real-Time Alerts: Video notifications can be sent through email, providing immediate visibility into critical events.

Add analog sensor ports

'VT408 Sensor extension unit' and 'VT408DIN Sensor extension unit' allow the connection of analog sensors to VT-PDU 4PS or 4MS. Each VT408 unit adds x8 analog sensor ports. Multiple VT408 units can be connected using a daisy CAN chain. Sensors connected to the extension unit appear in the system automatically.

Add dry contact inputs terminals

VT440 Dry contacts extension unit allows adding dry contact input terminals to VT-PDU units.

Each VT440 unit adds x32 terminals. Each VT440 unit + VT32 extension adds x64 terminals.

Multiple VT440 units can be connected using a daisy CAN chain.

Vutlan web interface offers a separate dry contact input panel for monitoring, control, and configuration.

Connect CAN sensors & extensions

You can connect up to 24 CAN units in a CAN bus chain.

E.g. Each VT408 unit in a CAN bus chain adds 8 analog sensors.

E.g. Each VT440 unit adds x32 or x64 dry contact inputs to the system.

The additional power supply CAN12V-1A  is needed only if the number of sensors in a CAN bus chain is more than 12 sensors. Supplies power for each additional group of 12 sensors.

Centralized Infrastructure Management Software using SNMP protocol

No matter how complex your IT infrastructure is, you can manage all assets using DCIM SNMP software, infrastructure management software.

Vutlan supports SNMP v1, SNMP v2c, SNMP v3. Hence the data from Vutlan monitoring units can be monitored from any SNMP managemnt software package.
