External Manual Operator (E.M.O.) on Automatic Transfer Switches

The External Manual Operator (E.M.O.), a standard feature of the Russelectric RTS-03 Series and RTS-30 Series of open-transition automatic transfer switches, the most rugged and complete line of 480 VAC 30-cycle and 3-cycle UL tested switches available in the market today. The unique E.M.O feature enables easy, safe, and quick manual transfer with the door fully closed, significantly reducing downtime and the risk of arc flash injuries. With the E.M.O, the manual transfer process is easier and faster for both the preferred and the alternative power sources, and no special procedures are required to ensure the system is de-energized during the transfer operation. That means less downtime because the cabinet door remains closed. The E.M.O utilizes the same Russelectric transfer mechanism as the automatic electrical operator, a design proven to provide exceptional safety and durability.
