Product Highlights

Powerware Type I Static Transfer Switch (STS) – Powerware Type I STS are high-speed, open-circuit switches that can transfer electrical loads from one AC power source to another in a fraction of a single electrical cycle. Because the Powerware Type I STS uses modular, cost-effective SCRs, it is fused for protection during a fault to protect the SCRs from rupture.		Powerware Type II Static Transfer Switch (STS) – Powerware Type II STS transfer electrical loads from one source to another, but provides more power availability. The Type II STS eliminates the chance of a loss of power to critical loads by properly coordinating with the electrical distribution system. During a fault condition, the Type II STS will continue to conduct current, allowing downstream circuit breakers to work selectively.		Powerware Zero Footprint Integrated STS/PDU - The Powerware Zero Footprint Integrated STS/PDU System combines the power protection of a digital static transfer switch with a power distribution unit into one space-saving unit. This unique arrangement minimizes floor space requirements without compromising system availability. In fact, the Powerware Zero Footprint STS/PDU is the size of just the PDUs in a typical STS/PDU configuration – a savings in floor space of more than 40%.
