IEM Difference

IEM’s Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS), equipped with a breaker/switch transfer pair, provides increased reliability and reduced maintenance as compared to solenoid-based operators.

Integrated overcurrent protection is optionally available within the same footprint. The switching elements can be non-automatic switches or breakers in either 3P or 4P configurations.

The ATS is controlled by the Woodward/IEM DTSC/XFER-200, which has an easy to use interface and supports a wide variety of communications and I/O options, including programmable logic capabilities. Our ATS’s are rated for emergency applications and suitable for critical and non-critical loads.

Ratings:

  • Current: 3200A max
  • Voltage: 208/240/480/600VAC
  • Short-circuit withstand: 65/85/100/150kA
  • Shot-time withstand: 65/85kA
  • Breakers/Switches: Siemens WL 3200AF, 3P/4P
  • Access/Entry: Rear top or bottom
  • Open-, delayed-, or closed-transition operation
  • Automatic or non-automatic (manual) control
  • Seamless integration with IEM LV switchboards and switchgear
  • Optional Service Entrance rating
  • Optional integrated overcurrent protection
  • Optional bypass/Isolation models

  • Automatic active synchronization or soft load transition
  • Power metering with overload alarm and load shed functions

Control Power

  • Capacitor buffer to maintain local display and comms during transfers
  • Redundant external control power input

Communications

  • Modbus RTU or TCP interface for monitoring, control, and metering
  • Remote manual/SCADA operation

Control Signals

  • Standard I/O can be repurposed for custom functions
  • Expandable I/O for additional custom logic/PLC capabilities

Fully rated bus is based on density ratings, not UL heat rise tests, resulting in more bus and lower operating temperatures.

All enclosures are designed for specific application with improved dimensional flexibility and finished using state of the art powder coating system providing an indoor finish that exceeds the 1500 hour salt spray testing requirement for outdoor equipment to 3000 hours.

Component and metering selections are based on value engineering for the application and optimized to meet specifications.
