ATS-type dual power distribution box

ATS-type dual power distribution box is a power distribution box with special functions. It is mainly used to realize automatic switching between dual power sources to ensure the continuity and reliability of power supply. Here is a detailed introduction for you:

- **Working principle**:

ATS (Automatic Transfer Switching) is an automatic transfer switch. When a fault occurs in the main power source (such as power outage, undervoltage, overvoltage, etc.), the ATS device will quickly detect the fault signal and automatically switch the load circuit from the main power source to the backup power source within a very short time (generally ranging from several tens of milliseconds to several seconds).

When the main power source returns to normal, it can automatically switch the load back to the main power source. This can ensure that when there is a problem with the main power source, the load can still continuously receive power supply and will not be interrupted due to power failure.

- **Application scenarios**:

- **Important places**:

Widely used in important places where power outages are not allowed, such as high-rise buildings, communities, hospitals, airports, docks, firefighting, metallurgy, chemical industry, textiles, etc. For example, in hospital operating rooms and intensive care units, once there is a power outage, it may endanger the lives of patients. The ATS-type dual power distribution box can ensure that it quickly switches to the backup power source when the main power source fails and guarantees the continuous operation of medical equipment.

- **Data centers**: Data rooms carry a large number of servers and key network equipment and require continuous and stable power supply. The ATS dual power automatic transfer cabinet can automatically switch to the backup power source when there is a problem with the main power source, ensure the continuous operation of key equipment in the data center, reduce the downtime caused by power failures, and improve the availability and stability of the data system.

- **Industrial production**:

In some industrial production processes, sudden power outages may lead to production interruptions, product scrapping, and even equipment damage. Using an ATS-type dual power distribution box can quickly switch to the backup power source when the main power source fails, reducing losses caused by power outages and ensuring the continuity of production.

- **Main features**:

- **Fast power switching**:

It can complete the switching at the moment when the main power source fails. The switching time is short, which can effectively reduce problems such as equipment shutdown or data loss caused by power switching.

- **High reliability**:

It has a perfect detection and switching mechanism to ensure accurate and reliable power switching in various complex situations, reducing the risk of power supply interruption caused by power failures.

- **Strong compatibility**:

It can be applied to main power sources and backup power sources of different types and specifications, and can meet the needs of various power supply systems.

- **Easy operation and maintenance**:

Generally, it has a simple and easy-to-understand operation interface and clear indication marks, which is convenient for operators to use and monitor. At the same time, its structural design is also convenient for daily maintenance and repair work.

- **Technical parameters**:

- **Rated voltage**:

Commonly 220V, 380V, etc. Different application scenarios may have different voltage requirements.

- **Rated current**:

It depends on the actual load demand. For example, there are various specifications such as 100A, 250A, and 400A.

- **Switching time**:

Usually between several tens of milliseconds and several seconds. The shorter the switching time, the less impact on the load.

- **Short-circuit withstand current**:

It reflects the withstand capacity of the power distribution box in the event of a short-circuit fault. Generally, it is in units of kA. The larger the value, the stronger the ability to withstand short-circuit current.

- **Installation and maintenance precautions**:

- **Installation**:

- The installation location should be selected in a dry, well-ventilated place that is convenient for operation and maintenance. Avoid installing in environments with moisture, high temperature, flammable materials, or corrosive gases.

- During installation, strictly follow the product manual and relevant electrical specifications to ensure that the power distribution box is firmly installed and grounded reliably. - The cables connecting the main power source and the backup power source should select conductors of appropriate specifications and ensure that the connections are tight to avoid heating or faults caused by poor contact.

- **Maintenance**:

- Regularly check whether the electrical components in the power distribution box are working properly, such as circuit breakers, contactors, relays, etc. If there is damage or aging, replace them in time.

- Clean the dust and debris inside the power distribution box to keep the internal environment clean and prevent electrical faults caused by dust accumulation.

- Check whether the switching function of the ATS device is normal. It can be tested by simulating a main power failure to ensure reliable switching when an actual fault occurs. - Check the grounding system of the power distribution box to ensure that the grounding resistance meets the requirements to ensure personal safety and the normal operation of equipment.
