AE Artesyn power shelf for latest 21” open rack systems
delivers efficiencies above 97% and enables the transition to 48 V
rack power in data centers
Advanced Energy Industries, Inc. (Nasdaq: AEIS) – a global
leader in highly engineered, precision power conversion,
measurement and control solutions – today launched its latest Open
Compute Project (OCP) Open Rack version 3 (ORv3) compliant
high-density AC-DC power shelf with industry-leading power
efficiency. Fully compatible with the latest ORv3 1OU 21” open rack
standard, the Advanced Energy Artesyn power shelf supports the
evolution to 48 V rack power architecture which minimizes power
consumption and improves the reliability of compute and storage
applications in hyperscale and enterprise data centers.

Offering 15 kW N+1 redundancy with peak efficiencies of over
97%, the new power shelf can be supplied with single or dual AC
power inlets. It accommodates up to six 3 kW hot-swappable
single-phase AC-DC power supplies and a removeable shelf
controller. Each power supply can deliver a 50.5 V, 60 A output and
accepts an input of 180 to 305 Vac. A narrow output voltage range
eliminates oversized design and simplifies downstream conversion to
lower voltages.
“This new power shelf
addresses the need to increase rack payload and power density,
minimize energy consumption and ensure compatibility across leading
data center hardware by moving to interoperable power conversion
solutions,” said Harry Soin, Advanced Energy’s senior director of
technical marketing for hyperscale data centers. “In addition, hot
swappable functionality and the option of a secondary power source
increase overall system reliability.”
The AE Artesyn power shelf is compatible with star, delta and
single-phase input configurations and includes a hot-pluggable,
DMTF Redfish®-compatible shelf controller for simple, secure
monitoring and control over Ethernet. A Modbus/PMBus™
communications interface is also provided for monitoring and
control.
The rectifiers offer active power factor correction (PFC) to
achieve ultra-low harmonic currents in accordance with EN/IEC
61000-3-2 and EN 60555-2. They incorporate protection against
overvoltage, overcurrent, undervoltage and over-temperature
conditions. Internally controlled, variable speed fans reduce power
consumption by accurately matching the cooling required for power
supply operating conditions.

Advanced Energy is a longstanding contributor to the OCP ORv3
standard and a leading enabler of 48 V rack power. The launch of
the AE ORv3-compliant power shelf marks another milestone in the
company’s contribution to the transition to 48 V architecture. For
