What is a Static Transfer Switch (STS/ATS)?

Why is a Static Transfer Switch Needed?

A Static Transfer Switch (STS) or automatic transfer switches (ATS) can be defined as static switches that can switch between two independent power sources to power critical loads. An example is the power source to network output of servers that have a single power supply unit. STS units are available in single-phase 2-pole or three-phase 3-pole/4-pole versions. Because the electronic components have a modular structure, they can be accessed and repaired quickly and easily. All relevant components are redundant and have redundant power supply units that guarantee functionality in case of a power supply failure or a fault on the motherboard.

Static Transfer Switch Features

Static Transfer Switches are used as static switches that ensure critical loads are continuously supplied by switching between two independent power sources. In such applications, a person is needed to transfer critical loads from one source to another. However, it is not possible for this person to detect the interruption in less than 2 milliseconds. STS devices are used to solve this problem because the sources are continuously monitored and can detect any interruption in less than 2 milliseconds. We can list the features of a static transfer switch as follows: available in single-phase, plug-and-play, 16A and 32A versions; available in three-phase from 25A to 800A, features continuous monitoring of power sources, automatic switching feature without overlapping power sources, automatic return feature, and extended monitoring and diagnostics increase system availability.
