The Power to Protect Your Critical Operations

For maximum availability applications, the Liebert Static

Transfer Switch2 (STS2) provides an automatic, seamless

transfer between your critical load and the outputs of two

independent UPS systems in a dual-bus power configuration.

If the primary UPS should fail, the switch will automatically

transfer the loads to the alternate UPS.

Liebert is the market leader in dual-bus power systems,

building the world’s most reliable UPS and Static Transfer

Switch products. Liebert STS2 further extends our 

market leadership with design benefits unmatched by

competitive products.

Standard Features Of The 

Liebert STS2 Provide Greater 

Overall Protection

Reliability:

100% rated, fuseless design.

Hot-swappable circuit breakers.

Flash memory enables firmware updates while

supporting critical load.

Rack-out control/power assembly on units up to 

600A to allow maintenance, service or full

replacement without disrupting the critical load.

Flexibility:

Internal CANBUS protocol: high-bandwidth

communication between system components via

twisted-pair cables. Options can be added as 

simple network nodes. 

Dual-lug installation bus with pem nuts for 

single-hand installation and “hot” torque service.

Low Total Cost Of Ownership:

Conservative design margins and excellent 

overload capacity.

UL listed.

Color Touch-Screen Interface 

The color touch-screen LCD interface allows

you to quickly check the status of the unit and

identify problems. The controls of the Liebert

STS2 are intuitive and simple.  

The color LCD monitor is divided into three segments. In addition to a system

mimic diagram, there is a Status/Alarm panel and a section dedicated to

operator instructions and menus. The screen allows you to configure the unit,

including the control of the preferred source, auto/manual retransfer selection,

alarm notification and other system setpoints. You benefit from improved

operator effectiveness, reduced training time, and less chance of operator error.
