TSi Power’s ARm-1000 redundancy module ~ automatic bypass system is recommended when no downtime from power outage is tolerated. Internet service providers, critical servers and telecom equipment, and export markets with bad power would find this technology valuable. The ARm Series permits daisy chaining with any UPS, providing unlimited redundancy using any combination of independant (separate) ac circuits, UPS systems, generator-backed ac circuits, and so on.

Typical ARm series applications
Designed for situations where reliability and predictability matter to the enterprise. 
Examples: telecommunications equipment, export markets, file servers, routers, digital copiers, office machines, industrial controllers (PLC), automatic test equipment (ATE), laboratory analyzers and other sensitive, specialized microprocessor-based equipment.

Key automatic redundancy module benefits
The ARm will provide uninterrupted ac to your load even in the event of UPS failure. ARms your critical equipment against extended power outages and catastrophic system shutdowns caused by accidental circuit breaker trips, UPS overload conditions, weak or old UPS batteries, routine & preventive maintenance of UPS, accidental UPS shut down, loose power cords, or UPS failure. ARm-1000E permits unlimited redundancy using any combination of independent (separate) 230V ac circuits, UPS systems, generator-backed AC circuits, etc.

How ARm automatic transfer switches work
The ARm is fed by two AC power sources. When the primary power source detector circuit senses a loss of power on that circuit, a relay immediately switches the load over to the backup power source feed in less than 10 ms. This is fast enough to be invisible to computer switch-mode power supplies.


Key Features of the TSi Power automatic redundancy module
Enables redundant UPS, backup generators or other ac power sources to be used for a single load.
