Silver Plated Terminals

Provides Excellent Electrical Conductivity

LayerZero utilizes silver plating on all bus joints to be

able to provide the highest performance. Silver has high

conductivity and low resistance - which makes for a great

contact.

Convection Cooling

No Fans, Dust Filters, or Fan Fuses

Fans and fan sensors are one of the most common

components to fail. For maximum uptime, ePODs

systems do not contain any fans, dust filters to

change, or fan fuses to replace. The Series 70 ePODs:

Type-X Power Distribution Unit utilizes a natural

convection-cooled heat dissipation system.

Serialized Circuit Boards

We serialize and track all critical circuit boards and memory cards through our eBOSS portal, which allows customers to reference which components their machines are made from, who tested the components, as well as the ability to view notes generated from testing. Serialized components offer the ability to drill-down on prospective component failure utilizing predictive modeling techniques, so if part fails, the instance can be cross-referenced with similar parts. This preventative maintenance helps ensure maximum uptime.

InSight™ IR Portholes

Scan Bolted Connections with Dead-Front Doors

Closed

Strategically positioned IR-scan portholes to enable safe thermal

scanning of all bolted connections with the deadfront closed,

without exposing the operator to power circuit voltage.

The IR window swivels upward and unlocks with key-hole

access to reveal a mesh, allowing the operator to point-

and-shoot thermal cameras to obtain accurate readings.

LayerZero provides documentation for proper thermal scanning

procedures.

InSight™ IR Portholes Allow Bolted Connections to be Thermal Scanned

Bolted Connections can be IR Scanned with the Dead Front Doors Closed

Sectionalized Components

Sectionalized Components Help Maximize Operator Safety

Operators are well-protected from exposed connections. Normal operator sections (breakers/switches) are

physically separated from the power electronics and control electronics sections, so that maintenance on a

section can be safely performed.

Energized parts are all insulated, covered, recessed, &/or internally mounted for safer operation of the unit. In

addition, sections that isolate machine components are insulated.

10

Inputs, Power Quality Monitoring, and Distribution Are All Sectionalized

Polycarbonate Windows

View Status LEDs and Distribution CB Positions With Dead-Front Doors Closed

Our Series 70 product line was inspired by NFPA-70E, to help data centers drastically reduce the risks of their

energy distribution systems.

Operators can view the status of diagnostic LEDs without exposure to the energized power electronics section.

In addition, SafePanel circuit breaker positions can be viewed with the dead-front door closed.

11

CBs Viewable Through Polycarbonate Windows

Dead-Front Hinged Doors

Dead-Front Hinged Doors Maximize Operator Safety

The Series 70 eRDP utilizes dead-front hinged doors. Outer doors are protected by an alarm.

Dead-Front hinged doors allows for operation of circuit breakers and measuring of bolted connections using

InSight™ IR Portholes without risk to the operator.

Dead-Front hinged doors protects operators from live electrical components, while maintaining ease-of-access.

Our custom designed hinges provide optimal axial rotation and smooth pivotal action, ensuring years of long-

term reliability.

Ethernet Connectivity

Open protocols

LayerZero utilizes open source protocols for its communications, which allows for:

• An enhanced ability to customize software• Flexible software development options • Lower total cost of ownership (no per copy fees)• Elimination of vendor lock-in• No proprietary limitations • Provides a stable, well developed foundation

The control path for the communications system gathers information from all aspects of the machine, isolated by fiber optics.

Connectivity to a WAN allows for the information to be accessible from any location, offering a variety of monitoring options.

Series 70 eRDP

A variety of connectivity options provide operators with the ability to adapt LayerZero systems to fit existing networks without the complications of working with closed, proprietary systems.

The Series 70 eRDP is designed to make it easy to transfer and exchange power usage data, which is very useful towards making smart corporate decisions and policies.

A Flexible Approach

Bluetooth Connectivity

Bluetooth Helps Keep Panel Board Names Up-To-Date

Coordinate efforts to keep panel board naming conventions accurate and up-to-date with Bluetooth

connectivity. In critical facilities, Facilities typically install the physical circuit breakers, while IT workers

manage naming of panel designations. With Bluetooth connectivity, the naming of circuit breakers

can be taken care of at the point-of-impact, bringing together the efforts of facilities and IT for more

accurate panel names.

16

Waveform Capture

Real-Time Waveform Capture

The Series 70 eRDP provides real-time waveform capture functionality, enabling operators the ability to obtain a fingerprint of the power quality at any given moment.

Waveform captures are available for both the main and branch circuit breakers, every pole of every breaker.

17

“Black Box” Forensic Diagnostics

“Black box” forensic diagnostics

The black box capabilities of LayerZero equipment are

extremely useful for analyzing root cause analysis,

enabling operators to pinpoint exactly where a fault

occurred. “Black box” forensics provide successive event

information with ten microsecond resolution, supplies

a brief snapshot of the event with a lead-in for further

inquiry, and furnishes a real-time status indicator of all

machine parameters at the time of the event.

LayerZero Black Box Forensics Can Help You:

• Reconstruct The Sequence of Events

• Find the Root Cause of Power Quality Incidents

• Record Snapshots of the Power

“Black box” event history is one of the most useful recording

schemes in the mission critical power machine industry.

18

Touch Screen Interface

Color Touch Screen

The circuit monitor used in the eRDP is well suited for power monitoring functionality, offering an easy to use

interface where real-time information about PDUs can be accessed. In addition, the user interface integrates

with existing system management software, and is designed to be worked with remotely. Information such

as alarms, current power usage, and set points can be accessed from the front of the unit or in most cases,

remotely. This enables data centers to make the most of their operations by being able to respond to incidents

immediately.
