Installation DANGER HAZARDOUS VOLTAGE (Can Cause Severe Injury or Death) Turn OFF all power before installation, adjustment, or removal of transfer switch or any of its components. The safe operation of your switch is GE Zenith’s focus. The proper storage, installation, operation and maintenance will help increase the life of the switch.
Installation (cont’d) DANGER HAZARDOUS VOLTAGE (Can Cause Severe Injury or Death) Turn OFF all power before installation, adjustment, or removal of transfer switch or any of its components. Connect the Normal, Emergency, and Load conductors to the clearly marked terminals on the transfer switch. Remove surface oxides from cables by cleaning with a wire brush. Verify that all connections are correct before tightening the lugs.
Installation (cont’d) DANGER HAZARDOUS VOLTAGE (Can Cause Severe Injury or Death) Turn OFF all power before installation, adjustment, or removal of transfer switch or any of its components. Control Connections Note: N = Utility Position E = Generator Position Connecting Engine Start may cause Generator to start. Before connecting, turn Generator OFF. With the Generator breaker open and the Generator control switch off, install the Generator start connections.
Installation (cont’d) DANGER HAZARDOUS VOLTAGE (Can Cause Severe Injury or Death) Turn OFF all power before installation, adjustment, or removal of transfer switch or any of its components. ATTENTION! This applies only to the switches with the RM4-CAT exerciser option: Only after ATS installation, connect a commercial-grade alkaline 9V battery to the MX60 controller via the harness connected to the controller. The battery should be placed in the holder installed just above the controller.
Installation (cont’d) DANGER HAZARDOUS VOLTAGE (Can Cause Severe Injury or Death) Turn OFF all power before installation, adjustment, or removal of transfer switch or any of its components. Functional Test Functional testing of the automatic transfer switch (ATS) is described in this section. Before proceeding, read and understand all instructions and review the operation of all accessories provided. To begin the test, close the Utility source circuit breaker.
Installation (cont’d) DANGER HAZARDOUS VOLTAGE (Can Cause Severe Injury or Death) Turn OFF all power before installation, adjustment, or removal of transfer switch or any of its components. System Voltage Settings Voltage / Frequency Selection Jumper Settings ZTX controller boards are preconfigured to the system voltages specified at the time of order.
Control Interface DANGER HAZARDOUS VOLTAGE (Can Cause Severe Injury or Death) Turn OFF all power before installation, adjustment, or removal of transfer switch or any of its components. Indicator LEDs A S1 (Utility) Available Green LED. When on, indicates source is acceptable. B S1 (Utility) Position Green LED. When on, indicates ATS is connected to Utility C S2 (Generator) Available Red LED. When on, indicates source is acceptable. D S2 (Generator) Position Red LED.
Control Interface (cont’d) DANGER HAZARDOUS VOLTAGE (Can Cause Severe Injury or Death) Turn OFF all power before installation, adjustment, or removal of transfer switch or any of its components. Using the Keypad Controls TEST KEY TIMER BYPASS The TEST KEY initiates a transfer sequence to S2 and holds the ATS in that mode until either the CANCEL key is pressed or, a situation arises to cause the ATS to go back to S1(ie, S2 actually fails).
Control Interface (cont’d) DANGER HAZARDOUS VOLTAGE (Can Cause Severe Injury or Death) Turn OFF all power before installation, adjustment, or removal of transfer switch or any of its components. Automatic Generator Exerciser The ZTX automatic generator Exerciser can perform a pre-scheduled repeating test of the generator and/or the ATS mechanism depending on which jumpers are selected on the controller board. Additionally, the ATS can be preset to perform the exercise every 7, 14, 21 or 28 days.
Control Interface (cont’d) DANGER HAZARDOUS VOLTAGE (Can Cause Severe Injury or Death) Turn OFF all power before installation, adjustment, or removal of transfer switch or any of its components. In-Phase Monitor ZTX ATS senses when the sources are as far out as 2 Hz or as close as .01Hz in frequency differential of each other and transfers the load to and from either source in-phase.
