MGE STS16 IEC309

Automatic transfer Switch / Static Transfer Switch

This takes 2x power sources and if one fails automatically and instantaneously switches to the other. They are used to make redundant paths in supply power. For example you can plug one input into a UPS, and the other into your wall socket. If the wall power dies the power will be supplied by the UPS, and if the UPS has a fault then wall power will be used.

They do not require any configuration.
There are serial connectors but you dont need to connect anything to these to use the ATS.

There is a button to set your default source. If either source fails the STS (static transfer switch) beeps and lights the relevant LED RED.

They will be fully tested before dispatch and are supplied with a 12 month RTB warranty.

Function
EATON developed STS to guarantee the
uninterrupted operation of your sensitive
equipment. The STS source transfer
switch is a simple and effective solution
to manage the redundancy provided by
two independent power sources.
STS handles the automatic or manual
transfer of your loads between two
independent power sources without
interrupting the supply of power (< 6
milliseconds). Either of the two sources
may be designated as the preferred
source with the other becoming the
alternate source. In the event of a
failure, transfer from one to the other is
automatic and instantaneous.
Automatic transfer to the alternate
source takes place if the voltage of the
preferred source goes outside a tolerance
of 12 % above or below the nominal
value. Return to the preferred source
is automatic when the voltage returns
within the ±12 % tolerance range.
To provide a maximum level of
protection for the connected sensitive
equipment, both power sources should
be on-line type UPSs. However, the STS
module can also be supplied by one UPS
and another type of source, or by two
non-UPS sources providing a sinusoidal
output (AC system, engine generator set,
etc.).
