BUSSMANN (EATON)为OEM、商业和工业用户提供短路电流线上工具-2015-09-02

电力管理公司伊顿最近扩展了其功能强大的在线工具和服务,以帮助客户满足最新的短路电流额定值(SCCR)要求,提高其电气系统的安全性和可靠性。伊顿的在线工具(Bussmann系列FC2可用故障电流计算器、Bussmann系列OSCAR 2.1在线合规性软件和SCCR保护套件)旨在帮助客户更轻松地确定所需的短路保护等级、找到元件短路电流额定值解决方案并计算设备SCCR以满足规范要求。

2014年美国国家电气规范(NEC)和职业安全与健康管理局(OSHA)规定了工业控制面板、机械和供暖、通风及空调(HVAC)设备的设备SCCR要求,以支持更安全的工作场所。然而,根据伊顿Bussmann最近对其客户进行的一项调查,OEM厂商在为其面板开发SCCR解决方案时往往举步维艰,而且许多厂商并不了解法规要求。

"伊顿公司 OEM 营销经理 Erik Barnes 表示:"安全可靠的配电系统对于支持工业和商业运营至关重要。"伊顿Bussmann正在设计各种工具,帮助客户了解最新的安全要求,同时制造市场上最广泛的电路保护解决方案组合,使规范和法规遵从变得更容易、更经济。在开发解决方案时,正确的工具和解决方案可以起到事半功倍的作用"。

Power management company Eaton recently expanded its powerful online tools and services to help customers meet the latest short-circuit current rating (SCCR) requirements, enhancing the safety and reliability of their electrical systems. Eaton's online tools, Bussmann series FC2 available fault current calculator, Bussmann series OSCAR 2.1 Online Compliance Software and SCCR Protection Suite, are designed to make it easier for customers to determine the level of short-circuit protection needed, find component short-circuit current rating solutions, and calculate equipment SCCR to meet code requirements.

The 2014 National Electric Code (NEC) and Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) establish equipment SCCR requirements for industrial control panels, machinery and heating, ventilating and air conditioning (HVAC) equipment to support a safer workplace. Yet, according to a recent Eaton survey among its customers, OEMs often struggle developing a SCCR solution for their panels and many are unaware of the code requirements.

"A safe and reliable power distribution system is essential to support industrial and commercial operations," said Erik Barnes, OEM marketing manager, Eaton. "Eaton is designing the tools to help customers understand the latest safety requirements while manufacturing the broadest portfolio of circuit protection solutions on the market to make code and regulatory compliance easier and cost-effective. The right tools and solutions can make all the difference when developing a solution."

Eaton's application experts and tools assist customers with their compliance questions and plans:

How much short-circuit protection is needed? FC2 available fault current calculator helps customers calculate available fault current virtually anytime and anywhere.
 
Which electrical components have the SCCR required? The SCCR Protection Suite helps equipment designers locate components with the SCCR required.
 
What is the SCCR of an equipment control panel? OSCAR Online Compliance Software calculates and documents assembly SCCR for a control panel.

Additionally, Eaton's Electrical Engineering Services and Systems team provides fault current studies and support in resolving inadequate SCCR. 

Eaton's industry leading products to meet SCCR requirements include expansive circuit protection solutions including circuit breakers and Bussmann series fuses, a comprehensive portfolio of disconnect products, termination and power distribution solution, as well as motor control and load controller products. Eaton also works with customers to develop SCCR solutions with minimal changes to material costs and requiring a minimum engineering effort.

Eaton develops and manufactures Bussmann series fusible circuit protection, power management and electrical safety products designed to provide innovative overcurrent and overvoltage solutions. These products serve customers in the industrial, commercial, alternative energy and other markets, and in mission-critical applications.
