MEDIUM VOLTAGE MOTOR CONTROL Manufacturers share the challenge of efficiently controlling motors to improve performance, reduce power consumption and protect motor investment. Of all the motors in your manufacturing process, medium voltage motors can have a large impact on your continued success. Developing medium voltage motor control and protection has been a core discipline for Rockwell Automation® for more than 100 years. Medium Voltage products, from across-the-line starters to soft starters and variable frequency AC drives, deliver enhanced protection in applications ranging up to...

A COMPLETE LINE OF INDUCTION AND SYNCHRONOUS CONTROLLERS Solid-state reduced-voltage controllers apply reduced voltage to a medium voltage AC motor to allow soft starting and stopping, limitation of the inrush current, and reduction of the effects of water hammer in pumping systems. Allen-Bradley MV SMC™ Flex controllers include motor protection, communication and diagnostic capabilities and high flexibility, making it ideal for virtually any application. IntelliCENTER™ provides MCC users with an integrated hardware, software and communication solution. The IntelliCENTER features...

ARC RESISTANT MEDIUM VOLTAGE CONTROLLERS The Allen-Bradley CENTERLINE® ArcShield arc resistant controller provides rugged process control for applications requiring a higher level of personnel protection. ArcShield products are compliant to the IEEE C37.20.7 standard, and provide Type 2B protection. The ArcShield product was tested and certified for 40 kA and 0.5 second. During an arc flash, the ArcShield controller safely redirects the arc flash energy out the top of the unit and away from personnel. This level of protection is also maintained when the low voltage door is open for...

Offering a wide variety of CENTERLINE ArcShield products: The ArcShield products are available in a number of different controller configurations. Here are just a few of the products available: • Bulletin 1591A/B Incoming units • Bulletin 1512A/AT One high controller • Bulletin 1512B/BT Two high controller • Bulletin 1562E MV SMC Flex controller • Bulletin 1506 Reversing controller Side view (common to all products) Arc “Pressure Relief” Vent • Safely vents arc gases and material away from personnel during an arc flash • Arc gases are vented out the top of the enclosure through the plenum...
