The Schleifenbauer GM BA4EDIP3101 Inline Meter is a precision engineered three phase 16A power monitoring solution designed to transform standard power distribution into a scalable, intelligent infrastructure. Housed in a double horizontal configuration, this inline meter includes a 5.0 Gateway and a single outlet, offering high accuracy metered input for effective energy management.
It features a toolless, hot swappable communications module for seamless maintenance and adaptability, along with dual 1Gbps Ethernet ports (RJ45/USB) for robust network integration. RJ45 daisy chaining and USB expansion ports provide flexible connectivity for sensors and additional modules. With the ability to support up to 100 PDUs sharing a single IP address, it significantly reduces the complexity and cost of IP management in larger installations.
The unit is ESD safe, ensuring compatibility in sensitive environments, and supports remote display and management through a smartphone NFC app, giving technicians a convenient and contactless way to interact with the system. Whether optimizing power usage in high-density racks or monitoring distributed power systems, this gateway-enabled inline meter offers reliability, scalability, and control, all without interrupting operation.
Equipped with a smartphone NFC interface for remote display, this meter supports IP address sharing across up to 100 PDUs, includes ESD-safe design for sensitive environments, and allows fast, toolless replacement of its hot-swappable communications module.
Featuring dual 1Gbps Ethernet ports (RJ45 and USB), RJ45 daisy chain support, and USB expansion for sensors, this gateway module integrates directly with Schleifenbauer's Enertree software via TLS-encrypted communication for comprehensive monitoring and control.
Built to handle three-phase 16 A loads at 230/400V with a frequency of 50Hz, this unit delivers accurate, reliable measurement in demanding power distribution environments.
Fitted with a 2.0m halogen-free 5G2.5 cable and a secure CEE plug, the power lead includes a 2.5 cm strain relief feature to ensure lasting connection stability and safety.
The 0.5m halogen-free exit lead terminates in an IEC60309 socket, ensuring safe and compliant power delivery to connected equipment.

Starting April 2025, Schleifenbauer is introducing the PDU 5.0, a cutting-edge Power Distribution Unit (PDU) crafted through collaboration with over 40 data centre operators. This next-generation PDU, paired with EnerTree software, is designed to address the unique challenges of modern data centres. Perfectly suited for the high demands of Artificial Intelligence (AI), High-Performance Computing (HPC), and Machine Learning (ML), the PDU 5.0 provides enhanced energy management and performance optimisation. With this solution, data centres can expect reliable, scalable power distribution, advanced monitoring, and seamless adaptability to the evolving digital landscape.
The PDU 5.0 by Schleifenbauer streams live data from the PDU, offering real-time monitoring of power usage and environmental factors. This provides instant access to critical data, allowing you to respond immediately to changes and prevent potential issues, contributing to a more stable and reliable IT environment.
With the ability to manage up to 100 PDUs through a single IP address, the PDU 5.0 minimises network management complexity. This saves time and reduces operational costs, enabling data centre managers to work more efficiently.
The integrated LED ring provides a quick visual status display of the PDU, allowing administrators to instantly understand the PDU’s status and detect any alerts or issues. This feature makes routine checks faster and simpler.
Using the Rack PDU Display app and NFC technology, you can easily access PDU data without the need for a physical display on the PDU itself. This adds flexibility, eliminates a vulnerable component, and allows for secure, rapid local access to PDU measurement data.
With encryption and specific access settings, the PDU 5.0 ensures secure data exchange within your data centre, keeping sensitive information well-protected.
The PDU 5.0 comes equipped with EnerTree software, enabling advanced energy management with monitoring, reporting, and alert features.
The software supports various devices, including third-party PDUs, UPS systems, cooling equipment, and sensors, making it an all-in-one solution for data centre managers.
This functionality enables the PDU to measure the total incoming energy consumption. The unit monitors the complete flow of current, voltage, power, and energy (kWh) from the power source into the PDU.
This data provides valuable insights for analysing and optimising energy usage within the data centre or server room – supporting cost control, capacity planning, and the identification of inefficiencies.
If the PDU is configured with multiple phases, energy consumption is measured per phase. If divided into multiple protected groups, consumption is monitored individually per group.
Measured parameters include: Voltage (V), Voltage dips/spikes (V), Current (A), Peak current (A), Active power (W), Apparent power (VA), Reactive power (VAR), Energy (Wh), Apparent energy (VAh), Total harmonic distortion (%), Crest factor, Frequency (Hz), Power factor.
Monitoring energy consumption also helps improve Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE) – a key metric for energy efficiency in data centres – and supports compliance with the EU Energy Efficiency Directive (EED).
The modular structure of the PDU 5.0, with hot-swappable communication modules such as Gateway, Controller, and Daisy Chain, offers flexible integration without downtime. This allows for easy adaptation to evolving data centre needs without operational interruptions.
With plug-and-play sensor capabilities, the PDU supports up to 32 sensors per unit, enabling extensive environmental monitoring and management. The dual 1 Gbps network connectivity (Ethernet port & USB Port), Dual Databus, and Dual USB on the Gateway and Controller modules ensure reliable, high-speed connections within your network.
Designed for advanced energy management alongside the EnerTree Platform with web GUI, this module centralises data from PDUs, improving efficiency and lowering costs by requiring less hardware within the PDU.
The intelligence of the PDU resides within the EnerTree Platform for high-compute power monitoring, optimising physical storage for historical PDU data, assisting with risk analysis, and system management.
The Gateway module is equipped with a 1 Gbps Ethernet RJ45 port with status indicators, 2 Databus RJ45 ports with status indicators, and 2 USB-A ports. A secondary 1 Gbps Ethernet port is supported via USB. All interfaces support zero-touch provisioning (plug-and-play).
The embedded EnerTree Lite software with an internal web GUI for conventional management. For data centres that prefer a traditional, standalone approach, the Controller Module provides an embedded EnerTree Lite solution with PDU intelligence and web interface within the module.
This module is fully compatible with other PDU monitoring and management software, delivering essential functionality via “EnerTree Lite,” a simplified version of the complete EnerTree platform.
The Controller module is equipped with a 1 Gbps Ethernet RJ45 port with status indicators, 2 Databus RJ45 ports with status indicators, and 2 USB-A ports. A secondary 1 Gbps Ethernet port is supported via USB. All interfaces support zero-touch provisioning (plug-and-play).
A secure data communication module without an Ethernet port, collecting and transmitting data from PDU to the Gateway or Controller. The Daisy Chain Module acts as a Data Relay Module, facilitating PDU network expansion by creating a ring topology.
This reduces the need for additional Ethernet ports and enhances security by minimising the risk of external access. In this ring configuration, a single Gateway or Controller module suffices to communicate with the EnerTree platform or other PDU monitoring systems, supporting up to 100 PDUs on one IP address.
This setup enables ultra-fast, real-time data transmission, improving scalability and operational efficiency. The module is equipped with 2 Databus RJ45 ports with status indicators and 2 USB-A ports. All interfaces support zero-touch provisioning (plug-and-play).
