DC Breaker Panel with 20 Field-Installed Breakers

August 24, 2015 by Jeff Shepard

Unipower announces its new DPP2U Series (Distribution Panel - Pluggable), designed to allow our customers the flexibility to configure panels onsite, with no tools required. The DPP2U Series offers the ability to deliver 900A of distribution capacity in a 19"- 2RU space. These panels may be configured as single bus or dual bus with 450A bus capacity.

"With this new panel customers can meet the unknown distribution requirements associated with a new Network. This new "pluggable breaker" panel provides the perfect solution with maximum flexibility for those last minute changes and installation,” stated Joe Merino, Unipower LLC.

The DPP2U Series provides up to 20 pluggable breakers in 10-A side & 10-B side configuration for true dual feed distribution. The breakers are easily hand inserted on-site and can be "hot-inserted" while the panel is energized. Breaker ratings from 2.5A to 200A can be accommodated and are available from the factory or various vendors.

DPP2U Panels are available in two models; 48/24V in a single panel, reducing integration inventory and also allowing dual voltage capability, and a 12V version. All panels are polarity neutral to protect against wiring errors. Red LEDs visible on the front panel indicate A or B side trip alarms and easy-connect NO/NC Form C relay contacts are provided for each bus.

The DPP2U Series panels can be mounted in either 19- or 23-inch racks with the mounting brackets provided and can be easily aligned with other equipment with offsets every quarter inch. DPP2U Series panels are RoHS complaint, UL certified, as well as NEBS compliant. Product is available for instant delivery from Unipower.
