ePODs Type-N STS/PDU Purpose
The LayerZero ePODs: Type-N PDU
Increases Operator Safety
ePODs Type-N Is Inspired by NFPA-70E The Series 70 ePODs Type-N design provides switching between two independent power sources, while providing power distribution capabilities at the same switching voltage. Type-N ePODs provide the ability to transfer power between two or three sources in a quarter of an electrical cycle, while delivering that power to up to twelve sub-feed circuit breakers.

Voice Guided Bypass Designed To Eliminate Human Error
The number one cause of static switch load-loss is operator error during maintenance bypass. To help prevent operators from completing the bypass procedure out-of-sequence, our products feature a voice prompted bypass procedure. This instructs the operator in a step-by-step course of action of the process, with only one operation per screen. Voice guided bypass slows down operators and compels them to think about the process, significantly reducing the probability of operator error.
Visual and audio cues provide clear instructions on the bypassing sequence.

Triple Modular Redundancy Option The Ultimate In Power Reliability Three Logic Paths instead of One
• Three Data Acquisition Boards • Three System Control Boards • Three drives per phase (i.e. per SCR pair) • 1-2 orders of magnitude more reliable than a single path.
The Series 70 ePODs: Type-N occupies a unique architectural location in mission critical infrastructure systems. The units are available in SMR (Single Modular Redundancy) or TMR (Triple Modular Redundancy) configurations, both of which are architectures that eliminate single points of failure. The TMR configuration will continue its mission of being a static transfer switch even if any one control element were to fail. As such, it is known to improve reliability by an order of magnitude. Triple Modular Redundant products serve the needs of elite, mission-critical infrastructure requirements. With our Triple Modular Redundant STS topology we can provide products that are at least ten times more reliable than alternative solutions. TMR Control Boards 7 7

Convection Cooling No Fans, Dust Filters, or Fan Fuses Fans and fan sensors are one of the most common components to fail. For maximum uptime, ePODs systems do not contain any fans, dust filters to change, or fan fuses to replace. The Series 70 ePODs: Type-N Power Distribution Unit utilizes a natural convection-cooled heat dissipation system. The heat sink arrangement is staggered between sources and phases to minimize the creation of extreme thermal gradients between heat sink columns when conducting on one source or the other.

Serialized Critical Board Tracking Serialized circuit boards We serialize and track all critical circuit boards and memory cards through our eBOSS portal, which allows customers to reference which components their machines are made from, who tested the components, as well as the ability to view notes generated from testing. Serialized components offer the ability to drill-down on prospective component failure utilizing predictive modeling techniques, so if part fails, the instance can be cross-referenced with similar parts. This preventative maintenance helps ensure maximum uptime. Serialized Gate Drive PCBs

InSight™ IR Portholes Scan Bolted Connections with Dead-Front Doors Closed Strategically positioned IR-scan portholes to enable safe thermal scanning of all bolted connections with the deadfront closed, without exposing the operator to power circuit voltage.
The IR window swivels upward and unlocks with key-hole access to reveal a mesh, allowing the operator to point-and-shoot thermal cameras to obtain accurate readings. LayerZero provides documentation for proper thermal scanning procedures.

Sectionalized Components Sectionalized Components Help Maximize Operator Safety Operators are well-protected from exposed connections. Normal operator sections (breakers/switches) are physically separated from the power electronics and control electronics sections, so that maintenance on a section can be safely performed. If maintenance is required on a particular section, power can be bypassed to another section to allow for safe repairs to be made. All connections are optically isolated to minimize risk.
Energized parts are all insulated, covered, recessed, &/or internally mounted for safer operation of the unit. In addition, sections that isolate machine components are insulated.

Dead-Front Hinged Doors Dead-Front Hinged Doors Maximize Operator Safety The Series 70 ePODs: Type-N utilizes dead-front hinged doors. Outer doors are protected by an alarm. Dead-Front hinged doors allows for operation of circuit breakers, measuring of bolted connections using InSight™ IR Portholes, and viewing of LEDs without risk to the operator.

SafePanel™ Distribution The LayerZero SafePanel™ The Series 70 ePODs: Type-N features an IP-20, finger-safe panel board, meaning that the opening will not allow ingress of ½” (12.5mm) diameter probe, for maximum operator safety. An arc can form as two live conductors are separated – such as the removal of a circuit breaker from a panel board. The SafePanel design ensures that a potential arc would be contained in the connection well so that even if a branch breaker were to be removed, the arc would be contained in the connection well. Insulated with the components deeply isolated, removal of the breaker is safe and easy.

Waveform Capture Real-Time Waveform Capture Each transfer event and overload transfer-inhibit event is captured and stored in non-volatile memory. It provides 3-phase current and 3-phase voltage waveform analysis of Source 1, Source 2, (Source 3 in a 3-source system) and Output Precise voltage and current data is necessary to understand why a transfer was made. Detailed records of transfers help operators better understand the root cause of events, helping engineers properly eradicate problems. Without waveform capture, this is not possible in a live environment. Waveform Capture on Local Display The 6-cycle capture is displayed on the control panel or can be viewed remotely on a standard web-browser.
LayerZero Waveform Capture Can Help You: • Fingerprint Incidents • Find The Root Cause Of Events • Monitor Power Quality In Real-Time • Waveform Capture On All Devices

“Black Box” Forensic Diagnostics “Black box” forensic diagnostics
The black box capabilities of LayerZero equipment are extremely useful for analyzing root cause analysis, enabling operators to pinpoint exactly where a fault occurred. “Black box” forensics provide successive event information with ten microsecond resolution, supplies a brief snapshot of the event with a lead-in for further inquiry, and furnishes a real-time status indicator of all machine parameters at the time of the event.
System Control Board “Black box” event history is one of the most useful recording schemes in the mission critical power machine industry.

Touch Screen Interface Touch screen interface The Dynamic Mimic Panel is presented on a 15” color touch screen Graphical User Interface, which was carefully designed to be user-friendly, intuitive, and consistent. The GUI is “Read-Only” unless a user has logged on. A walk-up user may examine the state of the switch, but can not change that state. Operators have instant access to real-time power usage information, including realtime waveform capture. A mimic panel graphically shows the current state of the switch and power flow, while health meters provide operators with the capability to know the status of a TMR instantly. The presence of an alarm is visible on every screen. Each transfer event and overload transfer-inhibit event is captured and stored as part of the history of the machine.
