Designed For Reliability

LayerZero Power Systems Static Transfer Switches provide reliable power transfers between multiple sources, all the time, every time. Designed for applications that require the highest standard in power reliability, the LayerZero Series 70 eSTS: Static Transfer Switch provides unparalleled power protection, a last line of defense before the integrity of the critical load is compromised Our eSTS products contain Black Box Forensic technologies, which record the exact power system parameters at the inputs and output of the static switch before, during and after transfers.

Series 70 eSTS: Static Transfer Switch

Providing Reliable Power Transfers The Series 70: eSTS is a Static Transfer Switch that switches between two independent power sources in less than a quarter cycle, allowing for uninterrupted power that is ideal for critical applications. The eSTS features a solid-state transfer switch that automatically or manually provides static transfers between two AC sources.
Available With Triple Modular Redundancy
Triple Modular Redundant Systems increase the probability of mission success by an order of magnitude during the operational life of the STS. TMR systems are deployed with three observers, three controllers, and three actuators (gate drives) for each pair of SCRs. With redundant power supplies and optical fiber communications, the STS is designed to continue to meet specification in the event of a catastrophic failure of one of the observer or controller or drive or power supply systems.

Designed For Long-Term Reliability

With appropriate and timely service and maintenance the TMR System can be Renewed to maintain virtually 100% probability of mission success. Triple Modular Redundancy is a proven topology in various life safety and mission critical systems across the industrial landscape. LayerZero is the only provider of the benefits of TMR in power distribution systems. TMR STS are ideally suited when reliability simply cannot be compromised in single cord or dual cord power systems.

NFPA-70E Friendly
Our Series 70 product line was developed around the recommendations of NFPA-70E regarding operator safety. Safety features, such as strategicallypositioned IR-Scan portholes, help protect operators by allowing all bolted connections to be scanned with the dead front closed. Utilizing InSight IR Portholes in the data center as part of the companys preventive maintenance plan helps ensure maximum uptime without risk to the operator. Enabling facilities to safely measure the temperature of all bolted connections from the front of the unit with the deadfront closed, InSight IR Portholes help ensure both the reliability of the power, as well as the safety of the operators.

Series 70 ePODs: Power Distribution Units

Safe, Scalable Power Distribution Series 70: ePODs Power Distribution Units are designed for operator safety, equipped standard with InSight IR Portholes, with optional SafePanel Distribution. LayerZero ePODs are highly configurable with static transfer switches, transformers, and power distribution options. The IP-20 Finger-Safe SafePanel allows for scalability that safely adapts to growing power needs.
InSight IR Portholes Permit Safe IR Scanning
InSight IR Portholes are openings in LayerZero units with hinged covers for ease of thermal scanning of all bolted connections. Thermal scanning bolted connections is a common procedure for preventive maintenance. The covers of InSight IR Portholes swivel outward to reveal a mesh. The mesh helps protect operators, while ensuring full functionality of thermal scanning ability. The usage of InSight IR Portholes makes it safer for operators to measure bolted connections.

IP-20 Rated Finger Safe Panel Boards

LayerZero Power Systems Power Distribution Units utilize IP-20 rated finger-safe panel distribution boards. The design of the panel board features recessed connection wells, helping to ensure safe installation of additional circuit breakers. Users installing additional breakers are not exposed to live bus. The subfeed breaker installation process permits the addition of capacity as needed, helping to permit scalability while providing superior safety and power reliability.

Connectivity That Integrates

LayerZero developed technology that allowed for wireless panel setup of circuit breaker installations at the point-of-impact. LayerZero Power Systems incorporated Bluetooth connectivity into the Series 70 eRPPs to allow for for panel setup, allowing for setup of panel names, set points, and circuit breaker configuration to be completed at the point-of-impact of circuit breaker installation. Wireless connectivity utilizing Bluetooth to power distribution units maximizes safety, as the door of the PDU is not required to be open for connectivity. In addition, PDU connectivity that makes use of Bluetooth permits the utilization of a variety of devices, including laptops, tablets, and PDAs. Bluetooth connectivity is secure, reliable, and suitable for longterm installations.

With optional Bluetooth connectivity, eRPPs circuit breakers can be fully configured at the point-of-impact. Waveform capture, power quality monitoring optional.
Connectivity Over Open Protocols
Connectivity to open protocols is provided with the Series 70: eRPPs, utilizing Modbus, Bluetooth, http, and SNMP. Bluetooth connectivity permits remote panel setup capabilities, so that users can customize panel directories, set up circuit breaker sizes, and set up poles. A single Category 5 cable provides access to all media, including waveform capture, panel setup, and remote monitoring. Each eRPP unit functions as a web-server, allowing for remote connectivity for setup & analysis.

Wireless Bluetooth Connectivity

Bluetooth connectivity to LayerZero power distribution units enables facilities operators to set up additional breakers at the point of impact, helping to improve productivity, and increasing accuracy of panel setup. Bluetooth connectivity permits panels to be set up safely, without opening the door.
