• Phase Sequence and Phase Rotation Protection between Utility and Generator Sources.
• Voltage Phase Loss/Unbalance Protection.
• Programmable Inputs (Quantity 8 Digital Input-voltage free input).
• RS485 Modbus Remote Communication Port (Modbus Serial RTU).

CLOSED TRANSITION OPTION

• Employs two electrically interlocked insulated case power switching units and a microprocessor based controller to automatically allow a Closed Transition load transfer when both utility and generator sources are available.
• All Closed Transition transfer sequences ensure both sources of power are in synchronism prior to transfer and load is transferred without power interruption.
• Automatic control & protection circuits ensure the generator and utility supplies are only in parallel for a maximum of 100 milliseconds to permit an uninterrupted load transfer.
• Reverts to an Open Transition load transfer sequence when only one power source is available.
• Ideal for Emergency Power System applications such as commercial, industrial, or government institutions that require automatic standby power and minimal power interruptions to the load.
• Allows optional use of integral over current trip elements within the power switching units thus eliminating the need for external, upstream protective devices.

BYPASS ISOLATION OPTION

• Employs an interlocked power switching mechanism that provides an easy and safe procedure for system maintenance personnel to manually isolate and bypass the automatic transfer switch.
• Manually operated switch allows either generator or utility source to be bypassed to maintain power to the load while the automatic transfer switch is tested for maintenance procedures as required.
• Allows a fast, simple and reliable method of isolating and bypassing the automatic transfer switch through a “break-before-make” bypass design.
• Mechanical interlocking mechanism ensures that the utility and generator sources cannot be paralleled under any circumstance and the transfer switch may be bypassed to either source.
• Closed Transition option may be operated in a “make-before-break” sequence at the operators’ direction.
• Supplied as a single complete assembly with all power conductors provided between the bypass mechanism and the transfer switch.
• Provisions for all external power cabling for the utility, generator and load conductors are provided for in the bypass/isolation compartment of the switch.
• Bypass/isolation switch and transfer switch are mounted in separate barriered compartments.
• Bypass isolation mechanism consists of 2 mechanically interlocked power switch devices and draw-out transfer power switching devices with key interlock mechanism.
• Utilizing independent switching units provides a high degree of reliability and redundancy not available in other switches.
• Specifically designed and certified to UL 1008 and CSA 22.2 No. 178 Safety Standards.
