HPE ProLiant DL380 Gen12 Power Supplies

HPE ProLiant DL380 Gen12 Power Supplies

Genuine HPE Flex Slot power supplies for the HPE ProLiant DL380 Gen12, new and refurbished. The platform runs one or two hot-plug PSUs in Platinum and Titanium efficiency grades from 800W to 2200W — two matching supplies give full 1+1 redundancy.

DL380 Gen12 Power Supply Specifications

  • Family: HPE Flex Slot hot-plug, tool-less modules — single-output, 94–96% efficient
  • AC options: 800W Platinum, 1000W Titanium, 1600W Platinum, and 1800W–2200W Titanium
  • DC option: 1600W –48VDC, with a power lug kit or DC power cable kit for hard-wired installations
  • Quantity: minimum 1, maximum 2; two matching PSUs provide 1+1 redundancy
  • Rules: mixing two different power supplies is not allowed; 1600W units require high-line 200–240VAC

Match before you add. Mixing two different power supplies is not allowed on the DL380 Gen12 — both units must be the identical model — and 1600W-class units require 200–240VAC high-line power.

How many power supplies does the DL380 Gen12 need?

ConfigurationPSUsTypical choice
General-purpose build2 (1+1 redundant)800W or 1000W
Loaded 2P: high-TDP CPUs, NVMe, GPUs2 (1+1 redundant)1600W or 1800W–2200W
DC power plant / telecom1–21600W –48VDC + lug kit

Production systems should run two supplies — hot-plug modules then let you replace a failed unit without downtime. Size the exact build with HPE Power Advisor: two 350W processors, 32 DIMMs, GPUs, and a full drive complement sit in a very different envelope than an entry build.

Choosing the Right DL380 Gen12 Power Supply

  • Never mix models or wattages — both PSUs in the chassis must be identical.
  • Check your feed: 800W and 1000W units accept standard ranges; 1600W-class units require 200–240VAC high-line power.
  • Going DC: the –48VDC unit needs either the power lug kit or the DC power cable kit — plan the pair together.
  • Refurbished PSUs are a low-risk buy — sealed, tested modules and a popular way to add redundancy affordably.

DL380 Gen12 Power Supplies FAQ

What power supplies does the HPE ProLiant DL380 Gen12 use?
HPE Flex Slot hot-plug PSUs: 800W Platinum, 1000W Titanium, 1600W Platinum, and 1800W-2200W Titanium AC units, plus a 1600W -48VDC option for DC power plants. The server runs one or two, always matching.

Can I mix different power supplies in the DL380 Gen12?
No - HPE states that mixing two different power supplies is not allowed. Both units must be the same model and wattage; when adding redundancy, buy the exact part number already installed.

Do the 1600W power supplies work on 110V power?
No - 1600W-class units require high-line 200-240VAC. If you only have low-line power available, use the 800W Platinum or 1000W Titanium units.

Can I hot-swap a failed DL380 Gen12 power supply?
Yes, provided two supplies are installed (1+1 redundancy) - pull the failed module and insert the replacement without shutting down. With a single PSU, schedule downtime for the swap.

Which power supply do I need for GPUs in the DL380 Gen12?
Plan high: GPU configurations also require the high-performance heat sink and GPU power cable kits, and push total draw toward the 1600W and 1800W-2200W Titanium units. Size the exact configuration with HPE Power Advisor before ordering.
