Voltage & Frequency Sensing

lAdjustable three-phase, close-differential voltage sensing on normal source.

lNormal source pickup voltage is adjustable to 95% of nominal; drop-out is adjustable from 70% to 90% of nominal.

lFrequency sensing on emergency source. Pickup at 95% and dropout at 85% of nominal.

Time Delays

lAdjustable time delay to override momentary normal source outages to delay all transfer switch and engine- starting signals.

lTransfer to emergency time delay—Adjustable from 0 to 5 minutes for controlled timing of load transfer to emergency.

lRetransfer to normal time delay—Adjustable to 30 minutes. l Five-minute unloaded running time delay for emergency

engine generator cool down.

l Four-second time delay to ignore momentary voltage and frequency transients during initial genset loading.

Control and Display Panel

lEasy-to-read flush-mounted control and display panel provides LED indicators for switch position and source availability. It also includes test and time-delay bypass switches.

Standard Selectable Features

lInphase monitor to transfer motor loads, without any intentional off time, to prevent inrush currents from exceeding normal starting levels.

lEngine exerciser to automatically test backup generator

each week Includes control switch for testing with or without load.

lSelective load disconnect, double-throw contact to operate at an adjustable 0 to 20 second adjustable time delay prior to transfer and reset 0 to 20 seconds after transfer.

l60 Hz or 50 Hz selectable switch.

lThree-phase/single-phase selectable switch.

Remote Control Features

Terminal provisions for connecting:

lRemote test switch.

lRemote contact for test or for peak shaving applications. Circuit will be automatically bypassed if emergency source fails.

l Inhibit transfer to emergency.

l Remote time-delay bypass switch.
