ABB SYNCHROTACT® 6 the world’s most popular synchronizer Key benefits

Diverse dual channel design

SYNCHROTACT 6 is the only synchronizer to have a diverse

dual channel design – if one channel should fail, the other

prevents the circuit breaker from closing under non

synchronous conditions. Both channels are in the same

SYNCHROTACT unit to minimize wiring, ensure perfect

working compatibility and reduce commissioning and

engineering costs.

The number of parameter sets has been increased from 7 to

20. enabling up to 20 different circuit breakers to be

synchronized by a single SYNCHROTRACT 6 device. Compliant

with the IEC 61850 Ed. 2 international communication

standard, SYNCHROTACT 6 fulfills the most demanding

requirements and offers a choice between an electrical or

optical interface.

The unit’s robust design is in accordance with the IEC 61508

SIL2 safety integrity level and IEC 60255-26. IEC 60255-27 and

ANSI/IEEE C37.90 product standards.
