-
To ensure starting feasibility and operating mode benefits
Motor starting or operations control are fundamental for your process and the definition of the motor management solution from Schneider Electric. We offer a complete range of advanced motor control equipment to meet all your process constraints with regard to your power system requirements.
Subdomains:
- Auto-transformer starters
- Reduced voltage soft starters
- Variable speed drives
-
To define suitable protection and integration in the industrial control system
Our motor management solution not only provides a means of starting the motor but also includes a protection unit comprising switchgear and protection relays. We offer a wide range of protection devices for protecting the motor and ensuring correct starting, while helping to ensure operator safety.
Subdomains:
- Protection relays
- Motor starters (DOL, Star-Delta)
-
To maximise energy efficiency
Choosing the correct capacitor bank, harmonic mitigation system, or transformer will ensure correct operation of the motor in the process with a minimum impact on the supplying power system.
Subdomains:
- Power factor correction
- Active filters
- Transformers (indoor and outdoor)
-
To assess motor management solutions over the time
Through condition assessment or by using historian data, motor and application failures can be avoided in the early stages. We offer an extensive range of products to help you in this approach.
Subdomains:
- Portfolio management
- Operational performance
- Motor condition assessment
