Product Details

Advanced System Architecture & Modular 8MF Framework

The structural backbone of this drawout switchgear cabinet relies on a high-rigidity universal framework assembled from specialized 8MF open-type section steel. All framing coordinates are systematically punched with high-precision modular mounting grids scaled to E=20mm and E=100mm variables. This adaptive engineering eliminates the need for field drilling or custom machining, giving engineers the freedom to swiftly alter internal tracking layouts. The entire assembly is treated with advanced surface protection steps to ensure robust anti-corrosion metrics and physical weight capacity under industrial operation.

High-Density Drawer Modularization with 5 Space Series

To maximize space efficiency within modern substations, this low voltage switchgear panel utilizes a high-density drawout drawer layout consisting of 5 height options: 1/2 unit, 1 unit, 1.5 unit, 2 unit, and 3 unit configurations. The functional loops for drawer units are explicitly rated to handle operating currents up to 400A. Each drawer assembly functions independently behind grounded metal sheets, allowing a high number of protective motor control loops and feeders to operate smoothly within a single cabinet line-up, making it perfect for complex Motor Control Center deployment.

Extreme Short-Circuit Breaking Capacity & Thermal Stability

Engineered to satisfy demanding modern power grid requirements, this drawout cabinet platform delivers outstanding performance under intense fault potentials. The primary horizontal busbar configuration handles peak withstand currents (Ipk) up to 176 kA and a short-time withstand rating (Icw) of 80 kA for 1 second. For localized distribution layers, the vertical busbar network maintains a stable 105 kA peak withstand and 50 kA short-time rating. This extreme thermal and mechanical resilience effectively locks internal components in place against massive electromagnetic forces during accidental grid drops.

Rigid Ingress Protection & Certified Site Service Conditions

This low voltage electrical switchgear is rated at an IP40 protection index, creating a robust shield against particle entry in demanding manufacturing or mining scenarios. The enclosure features engineered passive air passages to maximize thermal convection while keeping active circuits safe from external debris. It operates efficiently up to an installation altitude of 2000m, handling surrounding ambient air temperatures from -5°C up to +40°C. Relative humidity levels are strictly bounded to 50% at peak warmth (+40°C), adapting up to 90% in cooler conditions (+20°C) to provide exceptional condensation safety.

FAQs

What makes this modular low voltage switchgear highly reliable for MCC applications?

This platform integrates high-density multi-compartment partitioning and localized drawer blocks capable of handling up to 400A. This allows a vast array of independent motor control circuits to operate side-by-side in one enclosure safely, providing rapid swap capabilities that lower field downtime during critical plant operations.

How does the drawer configuration function across the 5 modular unit types?

The system divides functional heights into 5 modular increments: 1/2, 1, 1.5, 2, and 3 units. These distinct drawer heights allow customized tailoring to fit different breaker frame sizes and control loop demands, ensuring excellent space utility within the 1760mm effective functional height.

What are the exact short-circuit withstand capacities of the horizontal busbar assembly?

The main horizontal busbar network features a maximum peak withstand current (Ipk) of either 105kA or 176kA, along with a short-time withstand current (Icw/1s) of 50kA or 80kA. This configuration provides top-tier thermal and dynamic stability during grid faults.

What technical records are required from a client to generate a custom production quotation?

To formulate an accurate panel layout and commercial proposal, our engineering department requires the single-line diagram (SLD), structural outline or layout dimensions, targeted auxiliary control loop circuit wiring prints, the requested cabinet paint finish, and specific field environment data.
