PX3TS Overview
Introduction
In this User Guide, PX3TS refers to PX3TS with "iX7
PX3TS-iX7) unless otherwise specified.
A Raritan PX3TS transfer switch has two inlets to connect two diverse AC power
sources. When the primary, preferred power source fails or the power quality
of the preferred source deteriorates to a unacceptable level, the PX3TS
automatically transfers to the other power source to ensure the stability and
reliability of power supply to connected equipment. Power transfer does not
interrupt the operation of the connected equipment. The transfer time takes
only 4-8 milliseconds (1/4 AC cycle).
The intended use of PX3TS is distribution of power to information technology
equipment such as computers and communication equipment where such
equipment is typically mounted in an equipment rack located in an information
technology equipment room.
Raritan offers different types of PX3TS models -- some are outlet-switching
capable, and some are not. With the outlet-switching function, you can recover
systems remotely in the event of system failure and/or system lockup,
eliminate the need to perform manual intervention or dispatch field personnel,
reduce downtime and mean time to repair, and increase productivity.
