Eaton Bypass Isolation Contactor Based Transfer Switch

Description

Eaton Bypass Isolation Contactor transfer switch is used in life safety and other mission-critical applications where redundancy is desired and maintenance of the automatic transfer switch can be performed without interrupting power to the load. Transfer switches can be equipped with the ATC- 300+ or ATC-900 controller.

Eaton Bypass Isolation Contactor Configuration

  • 100, 150, 200, 225, 260, 400, 600, 800, 1000, 1200 and 1600 A
  • Two-, three- or four-pole (the fourth pole is fully rated)
  • Up to 600 Vac, 50/60 Hz
  • NEMA 1, 3R, 12, 4X

Design Highlights

  • Front access is a standard feature on all ratings
  • Entry:
    • Top, bottom or both
    • Isolated compartments
  • Improved safety:
    • Isolated compartments with barriers
    • Single motion rack-out with doors closed
    • Ability to test power switching elements during drawn out process
  • Dual ATS capability—both the ATS switch and bypass switch operate in automatic mode
  • Installation flexibility:
    • Field entry/exit locations can be modified in the field
    • Interchangeable draw out contactors
  • Field-selectable multi-tap transformer panel permits operation on a wide range of system voltages
  • Dual draw out—ATS and bypass
