Function<br />
ATYS and SIRCOVER <strong>UL</strong> 1008 transfer switching equipment ensure:<br />
Maintenance free transfer switching equipment with a robust and<br />
reliable design.<br />
Power control and safety between a normal and an alternate source.<br />
Integrated and robust switch disconnection.<br />
A stable OFF position with integrated padlocking to facilitate safe<br />
downstream maintenance.<br />
Positive break indication with clear visible position indication I - 0 - II.<br />
An inherent failsafe mechanical interlock prevents asynchronous<br />
paralleling of the two sources.<br />
Stable positions (I – 0 – II) non-affected by typical vibration and<br />
shock.<br />
Constant pressure on the contacts non affected by network voltage<br />
perturbation.<br />
Quick, easy and extremely safe manual operation.<br />
Along with the above, the ATyS also includes:<br />
A simple and secure motorization remote controls interface.<br />
Integrated switch position auxiliary contacts.<br />
An active “product availability” status feedback.<br />
Compatibility with virtually any make of ATS, AMF and Genset<br />
controller provided with volt-free contacts.<br />
Power supply continuity for most electrically controlled total<br />
system optional standby power applications.<br />
SOCOMEC <strong>UL</strong> products<br />
The ATYS <strong>UL</strong> is a full load break transfer switch where the main<br />
switching components are from proven technology devices<br />
(SIRCOVER - Manual Transfer Switches) also fulfilling requirements<br />
in <strong>UL</strong> 98 and IEC 60947-3 standards. The transfer is done in open<br />
transition with a minimum supply interruption during transfer ensuring<br />
full compliance with <strong>UL</strong> 1008 and IEC 60947-6-1 international TSE<br />
standards.<br />
As a stand-alone product, the ATyS is a non-automatic power transfer<br />
switch (an electrically operated transfer switch that is not self-acting),<br />
generally used in applications where the load is non-emergency, does<br />
not require automatic transfer and where operating persons can be<br />
made available to initiate the transfer.<br />
The electrical control of the ATyS <strong>UL</strong> may be direct through pushbuttons<br />
and dry contacts fitted onto the enclosure door or through a<br />
dedicated local or remote ATS controller.<br />
Your preferred brand of ATS controller, genset / AMF controller or<br />
power / building management system, may easily be paired with the<br />
ATyS to provide a complete automatic transfer switch to suit your<br />
needs.<br />
ATyS have three stable positions (I-0-II) which can be selected<br />
remotely, via volt-free contacts, or directly, through use of the<br />
emergency operation handle; emergency operation requires no supply<br />
to be present. The OFF position provides disconnection of both<br />
supplies ensuring downstream isolation for safe maintenance.<br />
<strong>UL</strong> Applications<br />
ATyS <strong>UL</strong>1008 transfer switches are rated from 100 to 1200 A and designed for use in total system optional standby power applications for<br />
the safe transfer of a load supply between a normal and an alternate source.<br />
Optional standby systems are those systems installed to provide an alternate source of power for structures for which a power outage could<br />
cause discomfort or interruption or damage to products or processes.<br />
