General Description
The Liebert Micro SmartSwitch (MSS) is a single Phase Dual Input rack mountable Power Distribution Unit (PDU) with a built in Automatic Transfer Switch.
When Input A falls below 168 VAC and Input B is valid, the output is automatically transferred to Input B. The output is transferred back to Input A when Input
A is valid and rises above 178 VAC. This high speed transfer rate ensures that
the transfer is transparent to the sensitive equipment.
The two sources are not required to be in phase. This is an effective solution that
uilds in redundancy and increases the AC power availability of connected
b
equipment. If the dual input power is fed through two independent AC sources,
then the system availability is increased and the dual input advantages are fully
used.
The Micro SmartSwitch provides 12 receptacles
power and may be rack mounted. There are four groups of three IEC-320 (10A)
receptacles, where each group is backed up by a 10A magnetic circuit breaker.
The MSS has two attached line cords that are terminated with NEMA L6-30
plugs with a 20A fuse for each. The total load for the MSS cannot exceed 24A of
AC load at 200-240 VAC. Also the load for each of the four groups cannot
exceed 10A or the internal breaker may trip or the fuse will blow. The load must
be balanced among the four segments such that the total current draw per section
does not exceed 10A and a total of 24A for all the four segments of the MSS.
This product provides line-to-line surge protection of 500 Joules.

WARNING: There is a risk of personal injury from electrical shock
and hazardous energy levels. The installation of options and routine
!
maintenance and service of the product must be performed by individuals
who are knowledgeable about the procedures, precautions, and hazards
associated with AC power products (trained service technician).
To reduce the risk of electrical shock and
or servicing the Micro SmartSwitch:
• The Micro SmartSwitch must be disconnected from the product and
unplugged from the AC electrical outlet before servicing or repairing product.
• Do not overload the output of the Micro SmartSwitch. The total connected
should not exceed rated input power.
load
• Do not exceed the leakage current limit for the Micro SmartSwitch in your
system. See the “Earth Leakage Current” section later in this document for
limits.
Earth Leakage Current
To reduce the risk of electrical shock du
grounded (earth) connection is essential before connecting Micro SmartSwitch to
AC power. Observe the following limits when connecting the product to AC
power distribution devices.
For products that have attached AC power co
ing power, the total combined leakage current should not exceed 5 percent of the
rated input current for the device.
For products that have detachable AC power
current should not exceed 3.5mA.
Voltage Selection
On connected equipment that have voltage select switches, make sure that the
switch is set for the type of voltage you use (208/240 VAC).
