Transfer switches — Russelectric, a Siemens business
Educational campuses, high-rise complexes, industrial plants, and manufacturing facilities can rely on the RTSCD to provide the emergency power needed to keep critical operations online. Available in 100-, 200-, 260-, and 400-A rated models, it offers a user-friendly operator interface panel with an intuitive keypad that features text and icons and comes standard with an historical event log. The product is available in two-, three-, and four-pole models, with solid or fully rated switched neutral. Featuring rapid and reliable arc quenching, the front connected RTSCD offers manual transfer with rapid arc interruption as well as a permanently affixed handle and double throw mechanically held contactor. Contacts are easily accessible for convenient inspection.
Preloaded springs and an electric operator-driven, over-center mechanism results in extremely quick switching operation. This unique design instantaneously opens and closes the contacts, providing rapid full-arc interruption, even under maximum voltage and amperage. This design considerably reduces contact erosion and effectively increases the switch’s useful life.
