IBM - 35P3064 - IBM 188W Power Supply 3573 Library (TS3100/TS3200)

IBM 35P3064 188W Power Supply for 3573 (TS3100/TS3200)

The IBM 35P3064 is a 188W power supply designed for IBM 3573 tape library platforms, including the TS3100 and TS3200 families. It is a direct replacement PSU intended to restore stable power delivery and help keep library operations running reliably in production environments where predictable uptime matters.

For organisations maintaining IBM tape infrastructure, having the correct spare PSU on hand can reduce service windows and simplify break/fix workflows. When planning broader IBM estate maintenance, it is common to align power spares with related platform components such as CPU and MEMORY in surrounding systems, as well as matching datacenter standards used across RACK SERVER deployments.

Refurbished Quality and Warranty

This unit is refurbished hardware. Each power supply is cleaned and tested by technicians before entering stock to help reduce the risk of hardware defects and to provide a dependable option for maintaining legacy IBM tape environments.

Refurbished sourcing can extend the lifecycle of existing infrastructure, reduce electronic waste, and control budgets compared to buying new. Direct Hardware Supply is an international supplier of refurbished IT hardware, shipping worldwide from Denmark. This product includes a one-year warranty from the date of purchase (batteries, tape drives and tape libraries are covered by a three-month warranty), with extended warranty options available on request.
