Liebert STS2 Communication
and Product Options

Liebert STS2 has a wide choice of monitoring and

communications options to keep you connected to your

critical power protection system.

RS-232 Terminal Port

— Standard on all units, this port

is primarily used as an alternate user interface to

configure, control, and diagnose the system.  

Input Contact Isolator (ICI) Board

— Customizable

input relays allow alarms from other devices to be

displayed on Liebert STS2 display. Provides an interface

for up to eight user inputs. External messages and alarms

can be routed to the unit, via the ICI.  

Programmable Relay Board (PRB) 

— Programmable

output relays for custom customer alarms and

connections. Up to two PRBs can be installed in the

Liebert STS2 to route system events to external devices.

Comms Board 

— Includes a terminal block to provide a

DTE connection to an external modem. This board also

provides a direct connection to a Liebert SiteScan

®

Web

system, via an RS-422. SiteLink-12 or SiteLink-4 is

required for SiteScan to communicate with the 

Liebert STS2.  

Options and Accessories

Seismic Anchors

— To ensure stability for the unit in the event

of seismic activity, anchors are available for securing the unit to

a concrete floor to meet seismic Zone 4 requirements.

Seismic Floor Stand

— Designed to level the unit and provide

bottom cabling access without relying upon a raised floor for

support. Available in 18, 24, 30, 36 inch heights. 

Distribution Cabinet

(Up to 600A) — An output distribution

cabinet mounts on the side of the STS2. It is a full height

section with hinged doors to allow for easy access. The cabinet

contains one vertically mounted I-line panelboard for load

distribution. The panelboard is totally enclosed with an accent

cover that provides access without exposing other portions of

the unit. The panelboard provides space for 100A through 250A

three-pole branch circuit breakers. It also includes a separate

isolated neutral bus bar and safety-ground bus bar for the

neutral and safety-ground connections.

Redundant Output Breaker

— An output plug-in, non-

automatic circuit breaker provides redundancy in the output

power path. The breaker is connected in parallel with the

output plug-in non-automatic circuit breaker.

Input Junction Boxes and Cable

(Up to 600A) — The input

junction box option is available to simplify input connections to

the STS2. Two input junction boxes and the associated flexible

10-foot long input cables are provided with this option.

Available with bottom cable entrance only, typically when the

unit is located on a raised floor.

Remote Source Selection

— An optional Remote Source

Selection board may be installed in your STS2. This option

allows you choose the preferred input source from a remote

location. Terminal connections enable you to remotely select a

preferred source in the same process as the local source

transfer selection. 

Key Lockout Switch

— The key lockout switch activates a

software lockout of the touch-screen display to prevent manual

transfers and configuration changes. When locked out, the

touch-screen becomes a read only display. A key is needed to

perform manual transfers or change settings.

Liebert IntelliSlot

485 Web Card ADPT

Allows systems to be viewed from the network using a web browser. 

Delivers SNMP, Telnet and web management. 

Provides security using HTTPS message encryption. 

Supports 10 and 100 MBit Ethernet for legacy and modern networks.

Provides compatibility with 

Liebert MultiLink

shutdown software, 

to prevent data loss and ensure data availability. 

Supports 

Liebert SiteScan WEB

enterprise monitoring software, to provide

trending for proactive analysis and maintenance to ensure facility uptime. 

Interfaces to 

Liebert Nform

alarm notification software, to facilitate 

quick corrective action. 

Liebert IntelliSlot 485 Web Card ADPT provides connectivity to any 

TCP/IP-based Ethernet network to allow the device to communicate with

network management systems (NMS) via SNMP. Events can be

transmitted to the NMS to provide remote status monitoring,

plus fault and alarm detection. The card includes an RJ-45 port for

an Ethernet connection, via Category 5 cable. The card can also

integrate the system with an existing Building Management

System (BMS) or out-of-band monitoring, using Modbus.
