Product Overview
2000 AMP ASCO Transfer Switch, 3 Pole NEMA3R 480VASCO ATS Series 300 3ATSA32000NG0MThe ASCO 2000 AMP Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS) can handle movement of large power loads from grid to generator sourcing in the event of a power outage or interruption. Equipped for use in light industrial and commercial spaces, the ASCO 2000 AMP ATS is appropriate for use in agricultural structures, retail facilities, warehouses and a variety of other businesses.What is an Automatic Transfer Switch?When grid power fails, many businesses cannot allow machinery and other equipment to sit idle or without power while waiting for the issue to be resolved. When continual operation is essential to a facility, switching power loads from the grid to generators during outages keeps machines running. Switching manually requires a person on the premises, but an Automatic Transfer Switch handles the job without human intervention.How does the ASCO 2000 AMP automatic transfer switch work?The ASCO 2000 AMP Automatic Transfer Switch is programmed with logic and features smart controls that sense when grid power is down or abnormal. At that time, the ATS sends a signal to generators, powering them on. The ATS waits until generators are up to power, as moving entire loads to a generator before appropriate voltages are reached can blow the system. Once machines or facilities are moved to backup power, the ATS continues monitoring grid power. When power is restored, the ATS switches loads back to traditional power sources and waits an appropriate time period before powering generators down. Since the ATS draws power from a source itself prior to moving other loads, it will never move machines or facilities to a dead power source.Features of the ASCO 2000 AMP automatic transfer switch• Optional configurations, including delayed transition operation.• Restriction of Hazardous Substances compliant.• Emergency and Standby Power Systems NFPA 100 compliant.• National Electrical Code articles 700, 701 and 70
