Rittal DK 7979.534 PDU Metered Plus — 24 × Schuko, 3-Phase 32 A, Networked Metering
24 × Schuko3-phase CEE 32 APer-slot metering2 × Gbit LAN
The Rittal DK 7979.534 PDU metered plus is a vertical 0U power distribution unit for VX IT and TS IT racks, with 24 Schuko (CEE 7/3) sockets fed from a three-phase 400 V / 32 A supply through a CEE 32 A five-pin plug on a 3 m cable. It distributes up to 22 kW: eight sockets per phase, four per fuse, protected by six hydraulic-magnetic 16 A circuit breakers.
Every output slot is metered — voltage, current, frequency, active and apparent power, energy, power factor and phase angle — with ±1% energy accuracy to EN 62053-21. Readings appear on a backlit 128 × 128 TFT colour display and over two redundant Gigabit Ethernet ports, with HTTP/HTTPS, SSH, SNMP v1/v2c/v3, Modbus/TCP and OPC-UA support.
Before you order: this PDU needs a three-phase 400 V CEE 32 A supply — not a Schuko or single-phase socket. It meters but does not switch outlets: for remote per-outlet switching, a managed PDU such as the Rittal DK 7979.440 is the right choice.
What's in the Box
- 1 × Rittal DK 7979.534 PDU metered plus with 3 m cable and CEE 32 A plug
- Assembly parts (universal holder, plug & play fastening)
What It Means in Practice
- Power a full rack of Schuko-plug equipment from one 32 A three-phase feed, balanced across phases.
- See consumption per output slot to plan capacity and allocate energy costs.
- Integrate readings into DCIM, BMS or monitoring via SNMP, Modbus/TCP or OPC-UA.
- Add up to 16 sensors (temperature, humidity, access) on the CAN bus.
What Will Not Work
- No remote switching of individual outlets — metering only.
- No IEC C13/C19 outlets.
- Not for single-phase or 16 A supplies.
- Not a surge protector or UPS (Rittal offers Type 3 surge protection as an option).

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I switch outlets remotely?
No. The metered plus model measures every slot but has no outlet switching. Choose a Rittal managed PDU for that.
What supply does it need?
A three-phase 400 V CEE 32 A five-pin socket (3L+N+PE).
Which racks does it fit?
It is designed for vertical 0U mounting in Rittal VX IT and TS IT racks; it is 2095 mm tall. Send us your rack model for other brands.
Singular Expert Insight · Buyer's Guide
Per-slot metering on a 22 kW three-phase PDU gives you real data for capacity planning and energy billing in a server room. It is a measurement tool, not a remote switch. More rack power and mounting parts are in our
rack accessories.
✓ Buy it if you need 24 Schuko outlets with per-slot energy metering from a 32 A three-phase feed in a 42U+ rack.
✕ Skip it if you need remote outlet switching, IEC outlets or a single-phase supply.
→ Also consider the Rittal DK 7979.440 managed PDU with switchable C13/C19 outlets.
