IBM PW118 server / storage / networking hardware Server Hardware / Parts

The IBM PW118 is an external AC power adapter, supplied as the power source for a compatible piece of IBM equipment. PW118 is a generic power-adapter model code that IBM and other manufacturers have used across a range of devices, so the exact output voltage and current of this specific unit depend on which host equipment it was originally supplied with. Power adapters of this type convert mains AC power into the low-voltage DC (or, in some variants, regulated AC) output that the host device requires, and are a routine consumable that fails or goes missing independently of the equipment it powers. Genuine replacement adapters such as this one are useful for restoring a device to working order where the original power supply has been lost or has failed. Specifiers should confirm the exact voltage, current and connector type required by their specific host equipment before ordering, since using a wrong-rated adapter can damage the device. Tech-Star (UK-based, shipped worldwide) stocks power adapters to support ongoing equipment maintenance. Please contact our sales team to confirm exact compatibility and for current stock and pricing.
