Why Choose the Chint NZ7-250H/4/160 Automatic Transfer Switch?

The Chint NZ7-250H/4/160 is a robust 4 pole automatic transfer switch (ATS) engineered to provide dependable automatic changeover between two independent power supplies. It continuously monitors both incoming sources and automatically transfers connected loads to the standby supply whenever the preferred source becomes unavailable, helping minimise downtime in critical electrical installations.

As part of the Chint NZ7 Series Automatic Transfer Switching Equipment, this model incorporates intelligent digital control, reliable mechanical and electrical interlocking, and a compact motor-driven operating mechanism. The result is dependable automatic source transfer with straightforward installation and long service life in demanding industrial and commercial environments.

Featuring a 160A rated operational current, 4 pole switching and suitability for 400V AC three-phase four-wire systems, the NZ7-250H/4/160 is an ideal solution for standby generator systems, commercial facilities, manufacturing plants, healthcare environments and other applications where continuous power is essential.

Key Advantages

  • Reliable automatic transfer switch for critical power applications.
  • 160A rated operational current for higher capacity installations.
  • 4 pole switching including neutral transfer.
  • Automatic changeover between normal and standby power supplies.
  • Mechanical and electrical interlocking prevents simultaneous connection of both supplies.
  • Compact motor-driven mechanism reduces installation space requirements.

Key Features

  • Chint NZ7 Series Automatic Transfer Switch.

Reliable Automatic Power Transfer

The Chint NZ7 Series continuously monitors the condition of both incoming power supplies and automatically transfers connected loads whenever the preferred supply experiences voltage loss, phase failure or other predefined faults. This helps ensure essential equipment continues operating with minimal interruption.

Its intelligent controller provides configurable transfer delays, generator control functions and comprehensive system monitoring, while dual mechanical and electrical interlocking enhances operational safety by preventing both power sources from being connected simultaneously.
