Description
Generac Automatic Transfer Switches are designed for use with single phase generators that utilize an Evolution or Nexus'"
Controller. The 100, 200, and 400 amp open transition switches are available in single phase in both service equipment rated and
non -service equipment rated configurations. The 150 and 300 amp open transition switches are only available in a service rated
equipment configuration.
Sfandard Feafures
Service rated (RXSW) Generac Automatic Transfer Switches are housed in an aluminum NEMA/UL Type 3R enclosure*, with
electrostatically applied and baked powder paint. The Heavy Duty Generac Contactor is a UL recognized device, designed for
Years of service. The controller at the generator handles all the timing, sensing, exercising functions, and transfer commands. All
switches are covered by a 5 year limited warranty.
* Non -service rated (RXSC) switches are housed In a steel enclosure,
DPM Technology
Through the use of digital power technology (pPM), these switches have the capability to manage up to 4 individual HVAC (24 VAC
controlled) loads with no additional hardware. When used in tandem with Smart Management Modules, up to 8 more loads can be
managed as well, providing the most installation efficient power management options available.
