PDU Power Distribution Unit

The PDU is used for local connection of the test specimen when the I-TS or MI-TS is installed some distance from the test chamber. Depending on current rating, it is a control cabinet or a wall-mounted IP54 enclosure with connection busbars, safety control and status indication.

Who Is the PDU For?

Test engineers whose I-TS or MI-TS system is physically separated from the test chamber and who need a local, safety-integrated connection point for the test specimen, with clear status indication for anyone working at the bench.

Available Models & Accessories

The PDU is available for 1000 A, 2000 A and 4000 A, each with 1 or 2 inputs and 1 output. Options add MKP capacitors to reduce DUT interference, a short-circuit bracket for safe maintenance, protection diodes to prevent source operation, and a door interlock.

Keeps the test chamber connection local

When the I-TS/MI-TS sits at a distance, the PDU brings busbars, safety control and status indication to the point where the test specimen actually connects.

Signal column gives status at a glance

Red, yellow, green and white indicators communicate fault, ready, test mode and stop without needing to check the (M)I-TS display.

Protection options match the test object

A protection diode variant blocks source operation, useful for fuel cell testing, and a short-circuit bracket allows safe maintenance work (except on battery DUTs).

Scales from 1000 A to 4000 A in the same product line

One PDU concept covers a wide current range, from a compact wall enclosure to a larger control cabinet.
