“Transfer switch, type B means an automatic transfer switch that (does) employ integral overcurrent protection”. Westinghouse Robonics in type A are equipped with special instantaneous magnetic only interrupter. The trip settings of these special interrupter are set (and fixed) at higher than standard values.
Solid State Logic Control Panel Type LRO Robonic II Automatic Transfer Switch Rated 30 amperes through 100 amperes at 600 volts Ac maximum 50 or 60 Hertz. The mechanism is a lever operated device controlled by a 120 volt unidirectional motor. The transfer motor drives a nylon cam which in turn operates a steel lever by sliding a pin along a slot in the back of the lever.
Instruction Leaflet 30-471 (E) Page 6 Type “RO” Robonic II Automatic Transfer Switch A complete line rated from 150 amperes through 1000 amperes at 600 volts Ac or at 250 volts Dc. The transfer mechanism consists of the transfer motor, a gear train and two breaker operating cams.
Table 1 — Interrupting, Closing and Withstand Rating — Robonic Type A Robonic rms symmetrical amperes Continuous Rating Type 600 Vac 30 to 100 amps 14,000 150 to 225 amps 22,000 300 to 1000 amps 22,000 1200 to 3000 amps 65,000 Since type A Robonics employ magnetic only breakers, their interrupt- ing, closing and withstand ratings are the same value.

Instruction Leaflet 30-471 (E) Page 10 This time delay relay is an octual plug-in, sychronous motor type. It is complete with clutch and mechanical load switch giving one instantane- ously operated normally open contact and a timed single pole double throw contact in a dust-tight grey capsule.
Page 11
It may be used to start an engine-generator set at selected intervals, at least once per week, but without causing the transfer switch to operate and transfer the load to the generator supply. At the end of the interval it will cause the engine-generator to shutdown.

Instruction Leaflet 30-471 (E) Page 12 Schematic of Robonic II Transfer Switch Consider the Robonic II in the normal operating position, with normal power available and the normal interrupter closed. The following are energized: U.V. (undervoltage module), TDES (time delay engine start), and NR (normal relay).
Replacing Parts The Robonic Automatic Transfer Switch has been designed to have all components accessible and readily removable from the front of the panels. The Robonic Transfer Switch is divided into two basic sections. The upper section consists of the main contacts and transfer mechanism, the lower section consisting of all the automatic control devices.
