Product catalog summary
Customer Overview: The PRAMAC Group, based in Siena, specializes in the development, manufacturing, and sale of generators ranging from 1 kW to 3 MW globally. They utilize ABB OTM motorized change-over switches in their Load Transfer Solution (LTS) network switchboards to ensure seamless power distribution and generator activation during network issues.
Challenge: PRAMAC requires high safety and reliability in generator operations, with transfer devices that prevent risks to personnel and equipment. As a global entity, they need a supplier capable of providing comprehensive support worldwide.
ABB Solution: PRAMAC selected ABB OTM motorized change-over switches due to their double sectioning solution, which enhances protection against electric arcs by disconnecting at two points. The switches also feature an intermediate stable 0 position, allowing network disconnection when necessary. The OTM range is specifically designed for generators, minimizing micro-recoils and improving reliability. The compact design of OTM switches enables PRAMAC to reduce panel sizes.
Case Study Highlight: PRAMAC supplied 44 generators for the Abu Dhabi Formula 1 Grand Prix track, each with a power capacity of 250 kW to 370 kW, sufficient to light over 4,000 flats. These generators are equipped with anti-sand filters to prevent blackouts during sandstorms.
