HP 230993-001 PS-5551-2 500W Hot-Plug Power Supply ESP115 ML370 Server
The HP PS-5551-2 is a 500W hot-plug redundant power supply from HP's ESP115 series, designed for the ProLiant ML370 server line. It supports active power factor correction (PFC) and a wide-range AC input, allowing it to be swapped in or out of a running server without taking the system down — a key feature in enterprise and data-center environments where uptime is critical.

Applications
The HP ProLiant ML370 is a tower/rack-convertible server from the early-to-mid 2000s that was widely deployed in business data centers, branch offices, and enterprise IT environments running Windows Server, Linux, and NetWare. Hot-plug redundant power supplies like this PS-5551-2 allow a failed PSU to be replaced while the server stays online, supported by a second PSU in the redundant bay. This unit is a direct spare or replacement for any ML370 system currently in service, and it is also compatible with legacy Compaq ProLiant server configurations that used the same PS-5551-2 platform. Organizations maintaining older ML370 infrastructure — common in industrial, government, and education settings where equipment lifecycles run long — rely on spares like this to avoid costly system replacements.
This HP PS-5551-2 (230993-001) 500W Hot-Plug Server Power Supply has been bench-tested at our facility and is in good working condition. The unit powers on normally. Cosmetically it shows typical wear for used server equipment — minor scuffing on the chassis and light marks consistent with rack service. Both Nidec cooling fans are present and intact.
