Hammond 1589T6F1BKRR 1U 20A PDU, 6 Rear-Facing 5-20R Outlets

The Hammond 1589T6F1BKRR is a 1U, 19-inch rackmount power distribution unit that delivers 20A single-phase power to equipment mounted in racks and cabinets. All six NEMA 5-20R receptacles face the rear of the unit, which suits installations where equipment power cords terminate at the back of the rack and cabling needs to stay clear of the front panel. It is aimed at IT, networking, AV, telecom, test and industrial users who need higher-current outlets rather than a standard 15A strip.

The horizontal chassis measures 1.72 in (44 mm) high, 19.00 in (483 mm) wide and 2.66 in (68 mm) deep, so it occupies a single rack unit in a standard 19-inch rack or cabinet. The drawing for 1589T6F1BKRR specifies black painted steel front and back, with the series using a textured RAL9005 black powder coat finish that meets applicable GREENGUARD indoor air quality and RoHS requirements. Shipping weight is 4 lbs (1.81 kg).

Electrically, the unit is rated 20A, 125VAC, 60 Hz (rated voltage is also listed as 120VAC in the part attributes) and uses heavy-duty NEMA 5-20R receptacles that accept both NEMA 5-15P and 5-20P equipment plugs. A resettable circuit breaker helps protect against accidental overload, and a pilot light serves as the power indicator on this "T" version, which has no on/off switch. The attached cord uses a NEMA 5-20P straight-blade plug with 12/3 SJT construction; there is no surge protection, metering, shielded cord or rotated outlets on this model.

Series documentation lists UL/cUL recognition to UL 1363 and CSA C22.2 No. 308-14 under UL File E166039, an operating range of -20°C to +60°C, and TAA compliance for applicable U.S. federal procurement. The part is made in Canada and is USMCA, RoHS and REACH compliant.
