ABB Low Voltage Systems LV Switchgear / Motor Control Systems - 1

MNS R MNS R
MNS 3.0
The main characteristic of the MNS R switchgear is the rear connection MNS iS
for the power cables; this design has an impact on the dimensions of the MNS PDU
switchgear by reducing its total width.

The ideal application of the MNS R is as a Power Centre for energy
distribution; it is possible to reduce the overall dimensions by installing
more than one ACB in the same column without reducing the type tested
performance. Access to the power cables is by doors that can be either
hinged or unhinged depending on the space available in the Switch Room.

Additionally, the MNS R can be used as a Motor Control Centre containing
withdrawable, removable or fixed modules for the motor feeders including
variable speed drivers; this is the best solution to optimise the plant
process and increase the energy efficiency.

The MNS R also has the capability to include both Power Centre and
Motor Control functions in one combined switchboard.

MNS 3.0

MNS 3.0 is suitable for all applications such as steel plants, paper mills,
chemical, oil and gas, power plants, platforms and anywhere the
requirement is to guarantee the maximum safety standards together with
plant availability, maintenance simplicity and minimum dimensions.

Power and control cables along with all the operational functions are
accessible from the front of the switchboard, allowing the MNS 3.0 to be
installed against the wall.

Vertical distribution busbars are encapsulated inside the multifunction
wall that segregates the phases to create a fault free zone and guarantees
the IP2X protection when the drawers are removed. Additionally, the
modules can be withdrawn under controlled safe working live conditions,
making the MNS 3.0 suitable for all critical power applications.

MNS iS

MNS iS is the first innovative “intelligent” Motor Control Centre; it has
been developed using the latest technologies and is designed to be
integrated into the supervision and control systems that manage the
modern production plants.

Current and voltage measuring are performed by sensors instead of
traditional transformers. Inside the switchgear is the concentrator MLink,
the connection point with the external supervision and control systems
using the communication protocols like ModBus and Profibus.

With the software package named MService, it is possible to increase
the availability of the system due to the proactive maintenance which
means scheduling the maintenance activity according the real needs of
the components.

MNS PDU

Based on the MNS 3.0 design, key to the success of the ABB PDU is the
flexibility it provides to the Data Centre Operator by allowing Single Pole
Solid Neutral (SPN), Single Pole Switched Neutral (SPSN), 3 or 4 pole
modules of different current ratings to be mixed and matched in the same
PDU. The safe working whilst live removes the need to power down even
when adding, removing or extending the number of outgoing ways. When
the process of the Data Centre changes, the PDU has the ability to
change with the process; this flexibility provides huge operational cost
savings.

ABB PDUs have been in service for over 25 years and during this time
they have been re-configured to meet the ever changing needs of the
Data Centre Operator.

Sub Distribution

ABB is completing its portfolio with sub distribution switchboard solutions
designed to optimise cost and dimensions for all the lower performance
requirements.

Package Substations

ABB places particular emphasis on packaging the key elements of an
installations power requirement such as MV Switchgear, Transformers
and LV Switchgear. By utilising low energy and compact devices housed
in systems that are tried and tested to the latest national and international
standards, ABB can offer solutions to meet the most stringent of power
requirements including Packaged and Containerised solutions.

HITEC Dynamic Rotary UPS = UPS + Standby Generator
Free-Wheel Clutch
HITEC Power Protection has over 50 years experience manufacturing
rotary power protection systems with our rotating filter concept (the Induction Coupling
combination of a synchronous alternator and reactor) and kinetic energy Standard HITEC DRUPS Ratings from 500 kVA to 2200 kVA
store. Today we manufacture single module systems rated up to 3,000
kVA of full No-Break power from our new QPS range. DRUPS modules HITEC “QPS” Range up to 3000 kVA
can be configured to a variety of electrical systems, for instance to meet
the Uptime Institute’s Tier III or IV classification. Data Centre Installations

Why Use HITEC “Dynamic Rotary UPS” Systems

Battery Free Solution – No reinvestment every 4-7 years on new batteries,
no need for a dedicated climate controlled battery room, reduced floor
space, no costly battery disposal, more environmentally friendly.

DRUPS vs Static UPS + Standby Generator – DRUPS eliminates the
need for harmonic filtering, PFC, more switchgear and cabling. Fewer
components thus inherently more reliable design, higher MTBF and
available figures, lower overall installation and commissioning costs,
smaller overall dimensions and floor space requirements, easier to
operate and maintain.

Power Conditioning Without Power Electronics – DRUPS provides
long technical lifetime compared to systems with power electronics (over
25 years compared to 10-15 years) no double energy conversions hence
higher efficiency, no generation of harmonic currents / voltages.

Reactor + Generator = Active Filter – DRUPS provides high short circuit
output capacity. The system does not need to go to by-pass (use the utility)
to clear an output fault, reactive output power supplied by alternator means
near unity power factor from utility, dips and spikes on the utility voltage
are blocked, compensation of prolonged deviations of the utility voltage,
filters utility borne harmonic voltages and load borne harmonic currents.

Low Total Cost of Ownership – Taken together all these factors leads
to a lower TCO compared to that of an entire standby diesel genset, static
UPS, battery, air conditioning, PFC, active harmonic filtering system etc.

Data Centre Solutions

HITEC’s “Dynamic Rotary UPS” (DRUPS) system was the first UPS to
gain Uptime Institute ‘Tier’ certification at a data centre application within
UK, Europe & EMEA. HITEC’s Data Centre Continuous (HDCC) ratings
are specific for operating in the Uptime Institute’s Tier III & IV applications.

Low Voltage (LV) & Medium Voltage (MV) Systems

Low voltage systems are an effective means of connecting modules together
for redundancy. HITEC offers a range of LV solutions such as parallel
redundant, isolated redundant, distributed redundant and isolated parallel.

Isolated parallel configuration allows connection of multiple DRUPS
modules at LV. It uses an isolating choke to connect each DRUPS module
onto a common bus (IP ring). This allows paralleling for redundancy but
“isolates” each DRUPS from one another under fault conditions. HITEC
uses the “ERACS” modelling software to size the IP chokes.

However, low voltage systems may not be the most cost effective means,
as medium voltage systems (11KV) from HITEC allow more modules to
be connected in parallel, with lower fault currents and smaller cables, so
offering a more cost effective installation for substantial sites with high
loads or that cover a large area.

Active Redundancy Control –
Continuous Support of IT & Cooling

HITEC’s Active Redundancy Control makes full use of the “spare”
capacity of a redundant module to provide a “No-Break” electrical supply
to the cooling load from the DRUPS system, while in no way
compromising the security of the IT loads.

battery related. The replacement of batteries with a flywheel energy store
delivering guaranteed autonomy significantly improves the reliability and
availability of the solution. Furthermore, this “guaranteed autonomy” does
not change throughout the 20-year service life of the product.

Reduced Capital & Operational Costs
A DeRUPS™ solution can deliver lower day-one capital costs than an
equivalent battery-backed static UPS solution when the holistic costs of
the facility are considered.

The adoption of high-efficiency UBT+ technology combined with the energy
management features provided through the DeRUPS™ Controller, ensures
optimised efficiency at all levels of load. Combine this with the fact that
DeRUPS™ solutions have low maintenance requirements and an absence
of consumable components (batteries, capacitors and fans etc.) and it can
easily be demonstrated that these solutions offer the lowest Total Cost of
Ownership when compared with conventional battery-backed static solutions.

Space Savings to Enhancing Revenue Potential
The adoption of a flywheel-backed solution completely eliminates the
requirements for batteries which require large dedicated air-conditioned
space within a facility. Typically a DeRUPS™ solution can generate a
space saving of up to 80% enabling the revenue generating potential of
the business to be significantly increased.

for example unshielded cable can be used without fear of difficulties. 0-10 V out Temperature Control
A wide range of field devices are available for picking up signals in the Relay
field including temperature, humidity and CO2 together with relay and Light Switch
analogue output modules.
Dupline® is the ultimate remote I/O for your BMS controller. You can
implement the strategy in the BMS controller in the same way as you do
now, but all the points from the field are presented to you as BACnet
objects from the Dupline®/BACnet gateway. Applications for Dupline® are
generally where the I/O points are distributed over a wide area and are
of low density. HVAC, under floor heating, natural ventilation and alarm
point monitoring are good examples, but there are also opportunities for
reducing costs within lighting control and energy monitoring and control.
The SB2WEB Dupline® Controller can manage up to 7 Dupline® networks
each managing more than 400 data points. In addition to this, up to 32
energy meters can be connected via Modbus. Energy meter variables
are also presented to the BMS system as BACnet objects.
A DALI Gateway is now available for the Dupline® system making it
possible to offer lighting control and/or integration with HVAC
applications.
The Dupline® network is flexible, modular and fully expandable and
requires no special cable. A standard unshielded 16 AWG cable can be
used up to 3 miles long without repeaters. Bus and power cables can be
run next to each other without fear of interference. The system can easily
be expanded by simply adding the required modules on to the bus,
therefore last minute changes are easily accommodated. The SB2WEB
BACnet Controller makes it freely compatible with new and existing
building automation systems and eliminates the need for expensive home
runs, saving you money on wiring and installation costs against traditional
device to DDC solutions.

Working out solutions in close consultation with customers, Hager has
the vision: ‘To add value to peoples’ lives and their buildings through
smart, eco-efficient and energy saving solutions and services’.

Residential

Changes to household consumer units as a result of amendment 3 to
BS 7671:2008 wiring regulations coming into effect 1st Jan 2016, requires
consumer unit enclosures to be manufactured from a non-combustible
material. Hager provide a multi-range approach to this market aimed at
installations from where consumer units are on show in hallways etc, to
installations where the aesthetics of the board are less important due to
the board being positioned out of sight.

The design 30 range of consumer units is aimed at where the aesthetics
of the board are more important and comes with the additional features
of a meter-tail clamp to prevent any movement of the tails being transmitted
to the switch terminals and a rear cable entry plate to protect incoming
cables from sharp edges.

The design 10 range is aimed at where the aesthetics of the installation
are less important and the clamp and entry plate are available as extra's.
Both ranges utilise rectangular cable entries to line up traditional
installations with surface mounted cables in trunking.

A full range of non-combustible consumer units including surface, dual
row and flush / semi-flush offers are available in each of the ranges.

Klik

Klik, which has been widely used throughout the construction industry
for more than 30 years, is a market-leading range of lighting distribution
products, based on a pluggable lighting connection system. Klik 7 Pin
delivers up to 70% reduction in labour time compared to fixed wiring
installation. It is also safer, both when it is installed and throughout its
lifecycle.

Over the decades Klik has evolved with the construction industry and its
associated markets; it has adapted to meet the customer’s increasing
requirements for lighting control, including the desire to use digital
dimmable ballasts, to vary light according to occupancy and the natural
light available, the need to comply with building regulations and to
maximise energy and cost savings.

More recently, Hager introduced the Klik Lighting Control Module (LCM),
which offers a flexible and easy plug-and-play solution wherever
multi-channel control is needed. Today, Klik comprises a seven pin
system that enables switching, control (via KNX, DALI, DSI) and
emergency lighting. This, combined with its remarkable ease of
installation, makes Klik 7 Pin the ideal solution for buildings that are
needed quickly, must support a range of uses and functions, and may
need to change, adapt or extend in the future.

Power Factor Correction Solutions - 31

ABB Power Quality

ABB is unique as a UK manufacturer offering a complete power quality
service for networks from low (LV) to high voltage (HV), including power
factor correction (PFC) and active harmonic filtering equipment. ABB's
expert team provides comprehensive consultancy services that help
customers to identify their power quality issue and can then deliver the
perfect solution, either using off the shelf or bespoke equipment. The
benefits of getting power quality right include:

• Load reduction to make better use of existing power network
infrastructure

• Reduced energy costs & CO2 emissions

• Elimination of system harmonic distortion to meet ENA G5/4-1
requirements

Low Voltage Power Factor Correction Solutions

Reactive power, often referred to as “useless” power, builds up magnetic
fields. Incorrect management of reactive power can give rise to losses in
machinery and components as well as affecting power transmission
voltages, limiting the utilisation of electrical equipment and attracting
unnecessary extra penalty charges on electricity bills. ABB automatic
capacitor banks offer:

• Proven technology

• Wall & floor mounted options

• Complete auto set-up

• Easy to install & operate using our RVC & RVT power factor controllers

• Safety & reliability

We also provide individual capacitor shelves that enable panel builders
to incorporate ABB's PFC technology within their own low voltage panels.

Detuned Installations & Network Studies

The presence of harmonic currents can cause unacceptable disturbances

Packaged Substation - Maximum Energy

Efficiency in the Smallest of Spaces

Eaton’s packaged substation combines medium-voltage switchgear,
transformers and low-voltage distribution boards in a single, compact
housing. This allows the local conversion of medium voltage into low
voltage with precision and minimal power losses. Now only a single
system is installed exactly where the respective voltages are required.

Bringing together both worlds in one system makes long running
low-voltage cables a thing of the past while simplifying installation and
maintenance. This has a positive effect on energy costs because medium
voltage cables are much more energy efficient than low voltage cables.

9x Faster Metering Installation in

New MCCB Panelboards

The easy-to-fit plug-and-play metering facilities in Eaton’s Memshield 3
MCCB panelboards makes installation up to 9x faster than before.
Memshield 3 MCCB panelboards have set new standards for versatility
and for fast, convenient installation by offering these easy-to-fit plug-and-
play metering facilities, as well as offering provision for incorporating
surge and lightning protection, the ability to accommodate four-pole
incoming devices with optional earth-leakage protection, and enhanced
mechanical construction.

Instead of having to make up to 42 individual connections to wire an
energy meter – a task that typically takes around 90 minutes and is error
prone because of the large number of connections – users of the new
panelboards only need make a few simple plug-in connections. The risk
of errors is eliminated, and a meter is easily wired in less than 10 minutes
and up to nine times faster.

The panelboards can be supplied in versions that accommodate incoming
devices rated up to 800A and outgoing devices rated from 16A to 400A.
They are available with 6 and 12 outgoing ways in all ratings, with selected
ratings also available in 18 way versions. At the low-current end of the
range, 250A incomer boards are additionally offered in 4- and 8-way
versions that provide convenient and cost-effective solutions for small
installations. All models meet the requirements of IEC 61439-2, with Form
3b, Type 2 separation.

Power Xpert® Busbar

The Eaton range of Power Xpert® Busbar ranges are tested to the latest
IEC 61439-6 standards and make for the perfect choice where flexibility
and reliability are key to a projects success.

Integral Lighting - Clean Lines without Frames,
Bezels & Joints

Not so long ago electrical engineers had to pay a lot of attention to paint
colours, finishes and materials. It was very easy to get it wrong; the wrong
colour white, the wrong percentage of gloss and the wrong metal finish
often proved problematic for the engineer and client.

Another frequent bone of contention was the positioning of light fixtures in
an area. Architects often make engineers aware of their disappointment
when the clean lines of their space are interrupted by light fixtures.

Add to this the discomfort glare associated with direct lighting and the
problems can seem insurmountable.

Well thankfully Lighting Styles can solve the issues associated with using
traditional lighting by offering a variety of integrated lighting.

Simply put these plaster light fixtures become part of the building fabric,
and once painted, disappear into the walls or ceiling yet provide the accent
lighting or task lighting required in the space.

What’s more, linear integrated lighting allows the designer or architect to
play with light and shadows to enhance the design rather than detract from
it. But offering this flexibility does not have an impact on the engineers work
because this solution can still provide the lighting levels your space requires.

One size does not fit all...

The ideal solution with a wide range of plaster profiles specifically designed
to be plastered in place to provide the clean, knife edge finishes every
designer or architect would like to achieve.

Forming angles with a plaster product that can be cut on site is great when
working with those spaces where everything isn’t quite square.

For those who want something out of the norm there are products that offer
the ability to make curves, circles or simply great shapes to build upon.

All profiles can be used with a number of different LED tapes with a wide
range of light outputs and we will work with you if you need design help or
require us to achieve a specific project requirement.

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery...

Now in addition to white LEDs and RGB chips (that offer colour mixing
facilities) we can now offer white LED products that change the colour
temperature of the white light on-the-fly.

This facility mimics natural light allowing the user to have cooler white light
during the middle of the day and warm white light when the long shadows
form on the ground outside.

Technology leaps ahead...

Our LED solutions push aside the bulky, inflexible and inefficient
fluorescent, cold cathode or xenon festoon systems that dominated this
market.

These LED solutions offer the engineer higher efficiency and colour
required and when used with the latest dimmable power supplies give the
true versatility your design requires.
