Product Features of Automatic Transfer Switch for Generator
The EKATS5 automatic transfer switch for generator is a PC class, two-station change-over switch built to IEC 60947-6-1.
- Fast electromagnetic drive: A fast-acting electromagnet drives the switching. The default control voltage is AC220V, and AC110V can be customised.
- Self-switching and self-restoring: In automatic mode, power I (main supply) has priority when both supplies are present.
- Built-in power sampling: There is no separate control power line. You only connect the switch to the main circuit.
- Clear status indication: Indicators show common (main), backup, and load power. Optional passive auxiliary contacts (version “F”) signal normal/backup status. Mechanical position indicators and manual/automatic selectors are fitted for both sources.
- Modular, compact design: Same-side incoming lines make wiring easier. The unit weighs about 0.5 kg.
- Arc extinguishing system: The arc is split into series arcs in the grid, then stretched, cooled, and extinguished by electromagnetic force.
- Robust construction: The shell is fire-resistant. The PCB has a three-proof (conformal) coating for harsh environments.
