Kiloview 110W power supply module for 3RU-16CH rackmount

The Kiloview PU03-110W (often cataloged as KIL-PU03-110W) is an industrial-grade, hot-swappable 110-Watt power supply module designed specifically for the Kiloview Cradle Series RU03 3RU rackmount mainframe.

This module serves as an efficient, lower-wattage power option for production environments that do not require the massive overhead of the 300W units. It is used to power standard card setups or to establish cost-effective dual-redundant power configurations in setups with lower overall power consumption.

Core Engineering and Structural Features

• Hot-Swappable Slide-In Architecture: The module is engineered with matching alignment rails and a high-tolerance rear blade connector. This allows broadcast technicians to slide the power supply straight into the back of an active RU03 chassis and secure it using integrated thumb screws without interrupting any active video streams or causing system downtime.

• Active Load-Sharing Capability: When two PU03-110W modules are installed together in an RU03 mainframe, they communicate across the backplane to split the chassis's electrical load evenly. This active load sharing keeps both units running at lower temperatures, preserving internal capacitors and extending the lifespan of the hardware.

• Zero-Latency Failure Handover: In the event of a power line failure or internal module fault, the secondary PU03-110W instantly inherits the complete electrical load of the frame. The handover takes place in under a millisecond, meaning your encoder and decoder cards experience zero voltage sag, preventing dropped frames or system reboots.

• Dedicated Smart Cooling Fan: The module includes an independent internal cooling fan built into its galvanized steel housing. This fan draws fresh air straight over the high-frequency transformers and exhausts it out the back of the rack, preventing localized heat pockets from building up behind your cards.

• Comprehensive Electrical Protection Circuits: To safeguard expensive multi-channel processing cards connected down-line, the PU03-110W features standard integrated hardware protections: Over-Voltage Protection (OVP), Over-Current Protection (OCP), Short-Circuit Protection (SCP), and Over-Temperature Protection (OTP).

💡 Operational System Tips for the PU03-110W

The Power Allocation Math Check: Before choosing the 110W power module over the 300W alternative, calculate the exact power draw of your rack configuration. While a standard encoding or decoding card might only draw 6 to 12 Watts, running newer 4K multi-protocol gateway cards or populating all sixteen slots of the RU03 mainframe can quickly approach or exceed 110 Watts. Ensure your combined card wattage stays safely under 80% of the 110W limit (around 88 Watts) to maximize power supply efficiency and prevent thermal tripping under heavy processing loads.

• Executing Proper Circuit Separation: To guarantee true power redundancy when using two PU03-110W modules, ensure they are plugged into entirely separate electrical lines. Connect your primary power supply module to your facility’s main house grid (ideally backed by an Uninterruptible Power Supply) and route the secondary supply module to a separate backup circuit breaker ring or generator line.
