 32A
Load-Sharing Auto Transfer Switch (ATS) |
The 32A Load-Sharing
Automated Transfer Switch (ATS) provides redundant
power for single-power supply devices. The
ATS connects to two utility power grids to
supply single-power supply equipment with
dual, redundant power sources. In normal operation,
each source supplies half of the outlet sockets.
If one source fails, the ATS auto-switches
to the surviving power source to support the
connected equipment. The transfer between
sources is transparent to the connected equipment.

| Features |
- Allows equipment to be connected to two utility
power grids and survive the failure of one of
the power grids
- Connects to a primary and secondary power
input, under normal operation half the outputs
are supplied by each of the inputs. In the event
of either input failing, all outputs are supplied
by the surviving input
- Used to provide a resilient power source for
devices with a single power supply
- Can also be used to connect equipment with
an odd number of N+1 redundant power supplies
(with individual feeds) to two utility power
grids
- 2U rack mounted, includes mounting kit
- Per input front-panel current display
- Two captive 2.4m inlet cables, each with a
IEC309 32A plug
- Eight 16A (IEC320/C19) or sixteen 10A (IEC320/C13) outlet sockets, depending on model
- Maximum total load 32A
- Fast switching time prevents server interruption
during switchover
- Supports out-of-phase inputs
- One year warranty

| Product Details |
Many computer room installations include dual independent incoming power grids. This power switch increases the availability of equipment by allowing it to be connected to both incoming power grids, therefore enabling the equipment to survive the failure of one of the incoming power grids.
The switch may be used with equipment that has a single power supply, or equipment which has three or more power supplies.
The switch can be mounted in 2U of rack space, has
two power inputs and 8x 16A or 16x 10A power outputs. The
power inputs are connected to two independent utility
power grids (which can be on different phases),
whilst the output is connected to the equipment
being supported. Under normal operation all the
outputs are supplied from the primary power input.
If the primary power grid fails, the device switches
the outputs to be supplied by the secondary power
input. Fast switching time (10 to 16mS) allows the
supported systems to continue without interruption. |
| Typical Configuration for Use with Single Power Supply Equipment |
In this instance the equipment is
normally supplied by Grid A which is connected to the primary ATS input. In the
event of Grid A failing, the ATS switches to Grid B which is connected to the
secondary ATS input. |
| Config. for Use w/Equip. with 3 Non-Redundant Power Supplies |
All three power supplies connect to the ATS and are switched from Grid A to Grid B in the event of Grid A failing. |
| Config. for Use w/Equip. with 3 N+1 Redundant Power Supplies |
In this instance the equipment has three power supplies in a redundant N+1 configuration (only two supplies are required for operation). Because one of the power supplies can fail without affecting the operation of the equipment, only one of the power supplies need be connected through the ATS. This will ensure that two power supplies remain active in the event of either one of the incoming power supply grids failing. |
