GII-140(Model RXIAutomaticTransfer Spritch) =Og Paget Optional Combined Interface/Load Management Board The RXT transfer switch is available with either a standard interface board or a combined interface/load management board. The combined board allows load management as described below. Load Management • The combined load management board disconnects non -critical loads to prevent generator overload, in compliance with NEC. • The combined load management board monitors generator current and frequency to determine when to add or shed loads. This monitoring prevents frequency drops that can damage valuable electronics like computers and televisions. • Load management allows the use of a smaller generator set. Operation • Loads are automatically added or shed based on generator capacity. • The load control system uses dynamic logic to prevent shedding important loads unnecessarily when air conditioning, refrigerator, or water pump motors start (patent pending). • The load management board and generator communicate to provide smart power management. The time to shed loads decreases as each load is shed to quickly adapt to critical power requirements. • Load shed power level and frequency setpoinis can be adjusted using a personal computer (laptop) and Kohler® SiteTech- software, which is only available to Kohler - authorized distributors and dealers. Load Shed Specifications Priority Setting • Loads are added and shed according to their priority. Load 1 is the top priority, which is added first and shed last. Load 6 is the lowest priority. Less critical loads can be turned off automatically when essential appliances are running. Load priorities are hard -wired at installation. Viewing Load Shed Outputs with OnCueo Plus • Use Kohler's OnCue® Plus Generator Management System (sold separately) to view load status (On or Oft) for loads connected to the load shed relays. • Use OnCueG Plus to remotely monitor when loads are shed or added. • The load shed outputs can be labeled in OnCue® Plus. Current Transformer • The combined load management board option includes a 400 amp current transfomer (CT) for load monitoring. • A larger diameter CT is available for applications that require larger cables: • A 500 amp CT is available for use with a 60RCL generator. • See the table below for current transformer specifications and optional kit numbers.

Contactor Ratings with Coordinated Circuit Breakers Single-phase transfer switches are UL listed at 240 VAC maximum. Three-phase transfer switches are rated at 480 VAC maximum. The following table lists contactor withstand current ratings (WCR) for 100- 400 ampere non -service entrance rated switches with specific manufacturer's circuit breakers per UL and Canadian safety standards. Suitable for the control of motors, electric discharge lamps, tungsten filament lamps and electric heating equipment where the sum of motor full -load ampere ratings and the ampere ratings of other loads do not exceed the ampere rating of the switch and the tungsten load does not exceed 30 percent of switch rating. The transfer switch is rated for use on a circuit capable of delivering not more than the RMS symmetrical amperes maximum as shown in the tables below, but no greater than the interrupting capacity of the selected breaker.
