ACTS40 Dimensions

BASIC OPERATION

• Switching Priorities
  The output is connected to the relevant AC input according to the associated priority, i.e. If both sources are present the output would be connected to primary input. When the primary input is disconnected, the output is then connected to the secondary input

• Double Pole Switching
  All switching is double pole (switching active and neutral) and complies with marine and mobile wiring standards.

• Suitable for use with Computers
  The ACTS40 is suitable for use in a UPS system. The switching time is approximately 12ms

• Installation Note
  All inputs and outputs must be appropriately fused in accordance to local regulations

• Special Features of the Primary Input
  The Primary input has voltage sensing and time delays specifically designed for Generator use. The Generator input voltage must be within the voltage window and there is a time delay to ensure the Generator has warmed up and the voltage is stable before being switched to the output. The voltage is continuously monitored and in the unlikely event it becomes unstable and goes outside the limits, the output will be transferred to another source until the Generator voltage stabilises. These delays and the voltage limits can be changed via the jumper switches located on the transfer switch board. These are listed overleaf.

Adjustable Settings for Primary Input (+/- 3%)

Warning
Due to dangerous voltages, it is important that all AC wiring complies with the relevant wiring standards.
