The iSTS R is a 2 pole, single phase DIN Rail mount STS that suits 35mm x 7.5mm rail. Both the active conductor and the neutral are switched. Thyristors are used to undertake the switching process. These are many times faster and more reliable than their electromechanical equivalents.

The iSTS R is supplied with 2 Din Rail Mounted Fuse‐switch disconnectors complete with cylindrical fuse‐links (10x38 type aR ‐ 16/20A) and these should be placed adjacent to the “iSTS R”. Ensure that there is sufficient space between the iSTS and the fuse holders and adjacent equipment for cooling of the iSTS.
3.2 Synchronism The smoothest change‐over occurs when the supplies are in synchronism, so it is best to make sure the input supplies are in synchronism. Some equipment (like transformers) may saturate when a transfer occurs when not in synchronism. This causes large currents to flow into the load which could cause damage to the transformer, trip protective devices or blow fuses.
If the unit is inoperable then it should be returned to the manufacturer for repair or replacement. 3.8 Diagnostic Guide Before starting this guide it is important that you are familiar with the unit and have read the iSTS R User Manual.
Once every 6 months, (sooner if the environment is bad), vacuum dust from grills at top and bottom of unit. Inspect cable / plug connections for overheating. Please contact Static Power for help with troubleshooting and parts replacement. 5. SPECIFICATIONS Current rating...
