Function
The Static Switch has two inputs for load supply, a priority and a non-
priority input, and synchronizes the frequency of one supply to the
other. Typically, but not exclusively, supplied by Mains and an Inverter,
there are 3 modes of operation:
1. Service mode Mains - mains is selected as the load provider.
2. Service mode Inverter - inverter is selected as the load provider.
3. Automated function with priority selection.
In the automated function the supply of the priority input is connected
to the load. If the static switch detects deviation from tolerance through
monitoring, it will transfer the load to the non-priority input. When the
supply of the priority input has returned to be within parameters of
voltage and frequency, the static switch reverses this selection.
For adapting the static switch to different requirements, the priority
for mains or inverter operation can be selected externally via an opto-
coupler. The static switch can also be inhibited via another opto-coupler
for disconnecting the load. LEDs and potential-free relay contacts
indicate the mode of operation and / or the status of alarms.

practically no interruption
For models with I
