Apc AP7850B Rack Pdu Metered Zero U

Product Description

The APC AP7850B is a metered, Zero U rack power distribution unit designed for use in data center and IT enclosure environments. A Zero U form factor mounts vertically in the rear of a standard equipment rack, preserving rack unit space for active equipment. The built-in metering gives technicians and facility managers a real-time view of load consumption at the PDU level, supporting capacity planning and preventing circuit overloads. Licensed electricians and data center infrastructure technicians are the primary installers of this unit.

The AP7850B is suited for enterprise data center deployments, server rooms, and network equipment enclosures where accurate power monitoring is required. Its Zero U mounting profile makes it a practical fit for high-density rack configurations where standard 1U or 2U PDUs would consume valuable rack space. It is typically deployed in environments that demand continuous uptime and load visibility across multiple connected devices.

Key Features

• Metered PDU provides local load monitoring for capacity management
• Zero U form factor mounts vertically to preserve rack unit space
• Designed for enterprise-grade rack and enclosure installations
• Sold as a single unit (each)

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or upgrade PDU for standard two-post and four-post equipment racks that support vertical Zero U PDU mounting.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician or qualified data center infrastructure technician in accordance with NEC guidelines. De-energize the upstream circuit breaker before making any electrical connections to the PDU. Verify that the branch circuit amperage and voltage match the PDU input requirements before powering on. Do not exceed the rated load capacity of the unit during operation.
