Switch control made simpler

GE’s solid-state Vital Switch Controller controls 24 VDC and 110 VDC switch machines, such as the CS-2 In-Tie Switch Machine. In single-switch applications, the VSC and one vital relay replace two control and one overload relay, and in dual-switch applications, the controller and one relay replace four control and two overload relays. Configurations are available for control of one or two switch machines
Features
  • Direct vital switch machine control 
  • Programmable overload protection using time base and current sense 
  • Available in three- and five-wire switch control interface 
  • Mounts in three B1 relay spaces 
Benefits & Value
  • Reduces number of relays required for switch machine control 
  • Needs only one vital switch control relay for a single switch or crossover 
  • Minimizes wear and tear on switch machine through precise overload control under all operating conditions
