APC AP4421 Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS) Specifications And Datasheet

APC AP4421 Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS)

Description

The APC Rack Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS) is a high-availability switch that provides redundant power to connected equipment via two inputs, one for each AC source. The output configuration is (12) IEC 60320 C13 The Rack ATS supplies power to the connected load from a primary AC source. If that primary source becomes unavailable, the Rack ATS automatically transfers loads to the secondary source. The transfer time from one source to the other is seamless to the connected equipment, as the switching occurs safely between the two input sources regardless of any phase differences.

Due to the units’ integrated network connectivity, remote management via the Web, SNMP, SHH, Telnet, or StruxureWareTM Data Centre Expert is possible. Numerous devices can be directly plugged into the Rack ATS because to its numerous outlets, eliminating the need for an additional Rack PDU. By giving aggregate current measurements and warnings when power consumption approaches the Rack ATS’s maximum rating, current monitoring and alarms assist reduce equipment downtime. Local and network interfaces that are already there can be customized for more flexibility.

Overview

Presentation
The APC Rack Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS) is a high-availability switch that provides redundant power to connected equipment and has two input power cords, one for each AC source. The output configuration is (12) IEC 60320 C13. The Rack ATS supplies power to the connected load from a primary AC source. If that primary source becomes unavailable, the Rack ATS automatically transfers loads to the secondary source. The transfer time from one source to the other is seamless to the connected equipment, as the switching occurs safely between the two input sources regardless of any phase differences.

The units have built-in network connectivity, which allows for remote management through Web, SNMP, SHH, Telnet, or StruxureWare™ Data Center Expert. With multiple outlets, several devices can be plugged directly into the Rack ATS without the need for an additional Rack PDU. Current monitoring and alarms help prevent downtime to the equipment by providing aggregate current measurements and warnings when power consumption draws near the maximum rating of the Rack ATS. Built-in network and local interfaces allow for custom configuration settings for added flexibility.

FAQ’s

What is the APC AP4421 Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS)?

The APC AP4421 Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS) is a sophisticated device designed to automatically transfer electrical power sources between two input power lines, ensuring uninterrupted power supply to critical equipment.

What is the primary function of an ATS?

The primary function of an ATS is to switch between two power sources seamlessly to provide a reliable power supply. It monitors both sources and transfers to the secondary source if the primary source experiences a power disruption.

Where is the APC AP4421 ATS typically used?

The APC AP4421 ATS is commonly used in data centers, server rooms, and critical infrastructure facilities where uninterrupted power is essential to prevent data loss and downtime.

How does the ATS detect a power disruption?

The ATS detects power disruptions through voltage monitoring. It continuously checks the voltage levels of both power sources and switches to the secondary source if the primary source voltage falls outside acceptable parameters.

What happens during the transfer between power sources?

During a power source transfer, there is a brief interruption, typically lasting milliseconds, as the ATS switches from the primary to the secondary source. This interruption is minimized to prevent downtime.

Can the ATS be manually controlled?

Yes, many ATS models, including the APC AP4421, allow for manual control in addition to automatic operation. Manual control is useful for maintenance or testing scenarios.

Is regular maintenance required for the APC AP4421 ATS?

Yes, regular maintenance is essential to ensure the ATS functions correctly. This includes inspecting connections, cleaning contacts, and testing the transfer switch under load.
