Providing redundancy on the power-circuit level is critical to maintaining solution. Monitoring Power on the ATS is a unique feature which provides uptime. The ATS Series provides a simple and reliable solution for auto- information about: matically sensing power loss and seamlessly switching to a backup circuit. (cid:116)(cid:1)(cid:1)Amperage Load (cid:116)(cid:1)(cid:1)(Watts) True RMS Power (cid:116)(cid:1)(cid:1)Volt-amps BayTech ATS transfer switch line offers a unique approach to performing the (cid:116)(cid:1)(cid:1)Voltage (cid:116)(cid:1)(cid:1)Internal Temperature transfer by completely severing the connection between the source and load then waiting for the zerocrossing to perform the transfer. This is the driving By combining the ATS and the DS-Series, console server alerts on force behind being able to perform out-of-phase transfers with a low-cost power and transfers can be sent via secure SNMP V3.
