Advanced MCC Panels: Centralized Motor Control for Peak Industrial Performance

Overview

Our state-of-the-art Motor Control Center (MCC) Panels provide a robust and centralized solution for the control, protection, and monitoring of multiple electric motors and associated electrical loads within industrial and commercial facilities. Designed for maximum efficiency, safety, and reliability, our MCC panels are engineered to meet the stringent demands of modern industrial processes, ensuring seamless operation and reduced downtime.

Key Features

• Modular & Expandable Design

  • Flexible Configuration: Available in fixed, removable, or fully withdrawable unit types, allowing for easy expansion, maintenance, and replacement without disrupting the entire system.
  • Vertical Sections: Each MCC panel consists of multiple vertical sections housing individual motor starter units and auxiliary compartments.
  • Future-Proof: Designed for scalability, making it easy to add or modify motor control units as your operational needs evolve.

• Comprehensive Motor Protection

  • Overload Protection: Thermal, electronic, or solid-state overload relays to prevent motor damage due to sustained overcurrents.
  • Short Circuit Protection: High-rupturing capacity (HRC) fuses or circuit breakers ensure rapid fault clearance.
  • Phase Loss/Imbalance Protection: Safeguards motors from damage due to supply voltage irregularities.
  • Earth Fault Protection: Optional integrated earth fault relays for enhanced safety and equipment protection.
  • Under/Over Voltage Protection: Protects motors from abnormal supply voltage conditions.

• Integrated Control & Automation

  • Variety of Motor Starter Options: Direct-On-Line (DOL), Star-Delta, Soft Starters, Variable Frequency Drives (VFDs) for precise motor speed and torque control, and reduced inrush current.
  • Local & Remote Control: Push buttons, selector switches, pilot lamps for local operation, and interfaces for remote control via PLC, SCADA, or DCS systems.
  • Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs): Optional integrated PLCs for advanced automation sequences, interlocks, and process control.
  • Human Machine Interface (HMI): Touchscreen HMIs available for intuitive local monitoring, control, and fault diagnostics.

• Advanced Metering & Monitoring

  • Digital Multi-Function Meters: Real-time display of voltage, current, frequency, power factor, active power, reactive power, and energy consumption for each motor or main incomer.
  • Fault Indication & Logging: Visual and audible alarms for faults, with historical data logging to aid in troubleshooting and predictive maintenance.
  • Communication Protocols: Support for Modbus RTU/TCP, Profibus, Ethernet IP, and other industrial protocols for seamless integration with higher-level control systems.

• Robust Busbar System

  • High-Quality Copper Busbars: Fully insulated and rated for the maximum specified current and short-circuit withstand capabilities.
  • Segregation: Available in Forms 2, 3, or 4 segregation to enhance safety, compartmentalize live parts, and reduce the risk of arc flash.
  • Optimal Heat Dissipation: Designed to ensure efficient heat dissipation, maintaining optimal operating temperatures.

• Superior Enclosure & Safety

  • Durable Construction: Fabricated from high-grade steel sheets, with options for stainless steel for corrosive environments.
  • High IP Rating: Available with ingress protection ratings up to IP54/IP65, protecting against dust and water ingress.
  • Arc Flash Mitigation: Designed with features to minimize the risks associated with arc flash incidents, including internal compartmentalization and pressure relief vents.
  • Safety Interlocks: Mechanical and electrical interlocks to prevent unsafe operations (e.g., opening a compartment door while energized).
  • Corrosion Resistance: Powder-coated finish for excellent scratch, corrosion, and chemical resistance.

Unmatched Benefits

• Enhanced Safety: Protects personnel from electrical hazards and prevents damage to expensive motors and equipment.
• Optimized Operational Efficiency: Centralized control streamlines operations, reduces energy consumption (especially with VFDs), and minimizes downtime.
• Flexible & Future-Proof: Easily adaptable to changing production needs and system expansions, offering long-term value.
• Reduced Downtime & Maintenance: Modular design, clear labeling, and advanced diagnostics simplify maintenance, troubleshooting, and component replacement.
• Space & Cost Savings: Compact footprint compared to discrete motor starters, requiring less floor space and reducing overall wiring costs.
• Seamless Integration: Designed for easy integration with existing plant control systems (DCS, SCADA, BMS).
• Regulatory Compliance: Manufactured to international and local standards, ensuring compliance and peace of mind.
