Next-generation vacuum circuit breaker with thermal monitoring
Schneider Electric has enhanced its EasyPacT EXE vacuum circuit breaker series, which connects building infrastructures, large commercial buildings and industrial plants to the electricity grid, with the latest generation thermal monitoring system.
The new product offers additional Internet of Things, or IoT, sensors and digital connectivity, designed to deliver a simpler, more sustainable and safer customer experience for panel builders, facility managers, and original equipment manufacturers.
Benefits and features include:
- Modular designs: available in two versions (fixed and withdrawable), the circuit breaker has a simple, customisable design that enables integration between switchgear and design, allows for the easy replacement of spare parts and improves overall reliability and robustness.
- Scalable monitoring: thermal sensors can gather data about the condition of critical connections, enabling predictive maintenance. The sensors do not require batteries and help to reduce unscheduled downtime, optimise site operation through predictive maintenance, and improve safety for operators and equipment.
- A dedicated mobile application (app): thermal monitoring is accessible by means of a mobile app, which helps to maximize resilience and uptime for efficient site operations.
- QR codes: technical documents and essential project information are available by means of product QR codes from design until end-of-life, enabling further customer collaboration.
- Full-scale integration and customer experience: a panel building expert support team is available for training advice on the most appropriate laboratory-tested solution.
Schneider Electric highlights that the EasyPacT EXE series has sold over 35 000 units globally, since its launch in 2016.
