HPE ProLiant DL325 Gen12 Power Supplies

HPE ProLiant DL325 Gen12 Power Supplies

Genuine HPE M-CRPS power supplies for the HPE ProLiant DL325 Gen12, new and refurbished. Gen12 moves this server to Modular Common Redundant Power Supplies: hot-plug, tool-less units in two physical widths, with a choice of four AC ratings and two -48VDC ratings, and a rule that the two bays must hold the same type.

DL325 Gen12 Power Supply Specifications

  • Bays: two, power supply 1 standard and power supply 2 optional, both hot-plug
  • AC kits listed: 800W M-CRPS Platinum, 1000W M-CRPS Titanium, 1500W M-CRPS Titanium and 2400W M-CRPS Titanium hot-plug power supply kits
  • DC kits listed: 1300W and 2200W M-CRPS -48VDC hot-plug power supply kits, with 1000-1300W and 2000-2200W -48VDC power lug kits
  • Efficiency: every listed supply except the 800W kit is rated for 96% efficiency, which is the single-output threshold for the European Union ErP Lot 9 regulation HPE cites
  • Input: 100 to 120 VAC and 200 to 240 VAC; the 1000W, 1500W and 2400W kits also accept 240 VDC input in China only
  • Widths: HPE M-CRPS supplies come in 73.5mm and 60mm designs; an NS204i-u boot device mounted beside power supply 2 is only compatible with the 60mm-wide supply

Size the power supply on the voltage you will actually plug into. Every M-CRPS kit for the DL325 Gen12 delivers less on 100-120 VAC than its label — the 2400W kit gives 1200W, the 1500W kit 1000W to 1100W, the 1000W kit 800W and the 800W kit 650W — and HPE does not support mixing different types of power supply in one server, so both bays must hold the same kit.

The right-hand columns are the point of this table. On 100 to 120 VAC every kit delivers less than its label, and the 2400W kit delivers exactly half. A server with a 400W or 500W processor, 24 DIMMs, a full E3.S fill and two GPUs sized on the 200-240 VAC figure will be undersized on a low-line circuit, so decide the input voltage before the wattage. HPE points to its Power Advisor tool for the configuration-level number.

Choosing the Right DL325 Gen12 Power Supply

  • Never mix types. HPE states that mixing different types of power supplies within a server domain is not supported; a replacement or a second unit must match the one already fitted.
  • Buy two for redundancy. The second bay is optional, and a single supply is a single point of failure however large it is.
  • Check the width if you use the rear boot device. The NS204i-u beside power supply 2 needs the 60mm-wide M-CRPS and the rear cable kit, so the boot-device location constrains the supply, not the other way round.
  • Size for the cooling too. Seven fan kits are required in every configuration and processors of 320W and above take the closed-loop liquid-cooling heat sink and fan, which all draw from the same supplies.
  • Count the cords. HPE's pre-configured servers include a power cord and factory-integrated supplies ship with one; when power cords are ordered separately HPE requires the quantity to equal the number of power supplies.

DL325 Gen12 Power Supplies FAQ

What power supplies does the DL325 Gen12 use?
HPE M-CRPS hot-plug power supply kits: 800W Platinum, 1000W Titanium, 1500W Titanium and 2400W Titanium for AC, and 1300W and 2200W -48VDC kits with matching power lug kits. The server has two bays; the second supply is optional.

Can I mix a 1000W and a 1500W power supply in a DL325 Gen12?
No. HPE states that mixing different types of power supplies within a server domain is not supported. Both bays must hold the same kit.

Are DL325 Gen12 power supplies hot-plug?
Yes. Every listed M-CRPS kit is a hot-plug unit with tool-less installation, and with two fitted the server keeps running while one is replaced.

How much power does a 2400W kit deliver on 120V?
1200W. HPE rates the 2400W M-CRPS at 1200W on 100-127 VAC and 2400W on 200-240 VAC. The 1500W kit gives 1000W to 1100W and the 1000W kit 800W on low-line input; only the 800W kit stays close to its label, at 650W.

Which DL325 Gen12 power supplies are 96% efficient?
All of them except the 800W M-CRPS Platinum kit. HPE rates the 1000W, 1500W and 2400W Titanium kits at 96%, which meets the single-output requirement of the European Union ErP Lot 9 regulation.

Does the power supply affect where the boot device goes?
Yes. The NS204i-u v2 boot device can mount beside power supply 2, but only with the rear cable kit and a 60mm-wide M-CRPS supply. With a 73.5mm supply the boot device goes on the low-profile Slot 1 riser or in the front cage instead.
