Advanced Energy Adds Single-Whip AC Input Option to 33 kW ORv3 HPR Power Shelf

New connection option enables rack designs optimized for a single AC feed to each power shelf, with multiple shelves operating in parallel to deliver 100 kW or more for AI data center and high-performance computing racks

Advanced Energy Industries Inc., a global leader in highly engineered, precision power conversion, measurement, and control solutions, today launched a single-whip option for its 33 kW ORv3 High-Power Rack (HPR) power shelf at the 2026 OCP Global Summit. The option provides one AC power connection per shelf, with separate left- and right-side input configurations to accommodate different data center rack layouts.

The shelf accommodates six 5.5 kW power supply modules in one Open Rack Unit (1OU) form factor. A fully populated shelf delivers 33 kW without redundancy or 27.5 kW with N+1 power-module redundancy. The modules are hot-swappable.

Multiple shelves can operate in parallel to power racks requiring 100 kW or more, supporting AI and high-performance computing applications. Customers can select from multiple monitoring and control options, including an Ethernet-based controller compatible with DMTF Redfish®. As always, Advanced Energy’s global field application engineering team provides responsive technical support.

Product specifications and more information are available here. Advanced Energy’s ORv3 HPR Power Shelf family has been supporting a range of needs since 2023.

“Power delivery into IT racks has been planned around a facility’s AC distribution and its computing load,” said Conor Quinn, Vice President, Marketing, High Volume Products, Advanced Energy. “The position of the AC feed affects cable routing and rack layout. Offering engineers a choice of input location enables them to account for these design constraints in their system design work.”
