Maintenance and Testing

CAUTION

Due to hazardous voltage and current, GE Zenith recommends that a GE Zenith Certified technician or a qualified electrician must perform the installation and maintenance of the switch.

CDT battery replacement - lithium batteries may last up to 10 years, however it is recommended that battery replacement be included in a 3-5 year service cycle. The battery maintains the exerceser memory only and does not otherwise affect the operation.

WARNING

Both power sources must be disconnected before manual operation of the switch.

A preventive maintenance program will insure high reliability and long life for the transfer switch. The preventive maintenance program for the transfer switch should include the following items:

Inspection and Cleaning

The switch should be inspected for any accumulation of dust, dirt, or moisture, and should be cleaned by vacuuming or wiping with a dry cloth or soft brush. do not use a blower since debris may become lodged in the electrical and mechanical components and cause damage.

Remove the transfer switch barriers and check the condition of the contacts. Any surface deposits must be removed with a clean cloth (do not use emery cloth or a file). If the contacts are pitted or worn excessively, they should be replaced. A general inspection of mechanical integrity should be made to include loose, broken or badly worn parts.

Servicing

All worn or inoperative parts must be replaced using GE Zenith recommended replacement parts. Please refer to the Replacement Parts manual for specific part information and ordering procedures. Please contact the GE Zenith Technical Services Department for the Replacement Parts manual.

The operating mechanism of the transfer switch is lubricated with Lubriplate 105. The lubricant applied at the factory provides adequate lubrication for the lifetime of the switch. Should debris contaminate the mechanism, clean and apply additional Lubriplate.

GE Zenith can provide complete preventative main- tenance services. Please contact the GE Zenith Technical Services Department for additional information.

Testing

A manual operator handle is provided with the transfer switch for maintenance purposes only. Manual operation of the switch must be checked before it is operated electrically. Both power sources

must be disconnected before manual operation

of the switch. Insert the handle and operate the transfer switch between the Source 1 and Source 2 positions. The transfer switch should operate smoothly without binding. Return the switch to Source 1 position, remove the handle, and return it to

the holder provided.

After completing the inspection, cleaning and servicing of the transfer switch, reinstall the switch cover, and close and lock the cabinet door. Reclose the circuit breakers feeding the utility and generator sources to the switch.

Initiate the electrical transfer test by activating the TS test switch. P timer will time out and the micro- controller will send an engine start signal. When the W time has elapsed, the switch will complete its transfer by closing into Source 2.

Deactivating the test switch will start retransfer to Source 1. The switch will complete its retransfer to Source 1 after the time delay of the T timer.

The U engine overrun timer allows the engine generator to run unloaded for a preset cool down period.

NOTE: A periodic test of the transfer switch under load conditions is recommended to insure proper operation. (See National Electric Code articles 700 and 701).

WARNING

When performing a hi-pot or dielectric test on the power section, DISCONNECT the control panel plugs from the microprocessor to avoid potential damage.

ZBTS, ZBTSD specifications

General Electric (GE) has established itself as a leader in the field of industrial automation and control systems, with its ZBTSD and ZBTS series representing some of the most advanced technology available. These systems are engineered to enhance performance, efficiency, and reliability in various industrial applications.

The ZBTSD, or Zero-Based Time Series Data, is designed to optimize data storage and retrieval processes. One of its main features is its ability to provide real-time monitoring and analytics of dynamic processes. This capability is crucial for industries that require immediate insights into their operations, helping to minimize downtime and enhance decision-making. The ZBTSD utilizes advanced machine learning algorithms to identify trends and patterns, enabling predictive maintenance that can significantly reduce operational costs.

On the other hand, the ZBTS, or Zero-Based Time Series Solutions, focuses on delivering comprehensive solutions for time series data management. This system is adept at handling vast amounts of data generated by industrial equipment, ensuring that organizations can efficiently process and analyze this information. Key characteristics of ZBTS include scalability, which allows companies to expand their systems as their data grows, and flexibility, permitting integration with various data sources.

One notable technology employed in both ZBTSD and ZBTS is cloud computing. By leveraging the cloud, these systems offer enhanced data accessibility and collaboration capabilities. Users can access critical data anytime, anywhere, facilitating timely responses to operational challenges.

Another significant feature is robust cybersecurity measures. With the increasing number of cyber threats in industrial environments, GE has prioritized security in the ZBTSD and ZBTS systems. These solutions are equipped with advanced encryption protocols and user authentication mechanisms to protect sensitive data from unauthorized access.

The user interface of both systems is designed to be intuitive, allowing operators to interact with the systems efficiently. Customizable dashboards provide visual representations of key performance indicators, making it easier for users to comprehend complex data at a glance.

In summary, GE's ZBTSD and ZBTS systems exemplify the integration of cutting-edge technology in industrial automation. Their emphasis on real-time data analytics, scalability, cybersecurity, and user-friendly design positions them as invaluable tools for organizations seeking to enhance operational efficiency and decision-making. As industries continue to evolve, these systems will play a pivotal role in shaping the future of industrial automation and data management.
