DANGER

HAZARDOUS VOLTAGE

(Can Cause Severe Injury or Death)

Turn OFF all power before installation, adjustment, or removal of transfer switch or any of its components.

Power Connections

GE Zenith transfer switches are supplied with UL listed solderless screw type terminals as standard for the Source 1, Source 2 and Load power connections.

Table 1 lists the number and sizes of cable lugs supplied as standard for each switch amp rating.

Connect the Source 1, Source 2, and Load conductors to the clearly marked terminals on the transfer switch. Remove surface oxides from cables by cleaning with a wire brush. Verify that all connections are correct before tightening the lugs. All cable lug connections must be tightened to the proper torque values as shown in Table 2.

Control Connections

Engine-start control wires connect to control terminals beside the Entelli-Switch 250. Engine start terminals are indicated by a schematic symbol (the symbol indicates the contact state for a de-energized normal source).

Figure 2 shows the engine-start contacts.

Make all other necessary control connections to the control panel terminal blocks per the schematics supplied with the ATS.

NOTE: All control wires (18-12 AWG) must be torqued to 19 in/lbs.

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.
