Product catalog summary
Overview
Cavotec is a leading cleantech company specializing in connection and electrification solutions to support the decarbonization of ports and industrial applications. The company pioneered ShorePower technology in the 1980s and offers innovative turnkey solutions for customers.

PowerRun System
The PowerRun is a skid-mounted cable reeling system designed for low voltage (LV) connections, providing moored ships with electrical power. It features Cavotec Power Connectors (PC4 and PC5) for safe and efficient connection to the electrical grid, with capacities up to 400A. The system maintains cable tension using hydrodynamic technology, accommodating vessel movements due to displacement, waves, and tides.

Key Features
  • Rapid cable connection with Cavotec PC5 push-pull connectors, compatible with fiber optics.
  • Pre-wired plugs for auxiliary power and status monitoring.
  • Alarm and signaling capabilities for remote supervision.
  • Anti-corrosion coatings for durability.
  • Hydrodynamic slipping clutch and active CMS with tide compensation.
  • Multi-roller cable guide for proper bending radius.
  • Operated via Cavotec Radio Remote Control (RRC) units.
  • Emergency stop functionality.

Options
  • PC4 or PC6 connectors for non-standard cable sizes.
  • Extended cable lengths to avoid HV junction boxes.
  • Articulated cable guides and special paint options.
  • Portable structure with crane or forklift lifting capability.

Technical Features
  • Operating voltage up to 690V, with options up to 1000 VAC.
  • Current capacity up to 350A per cable.
  • IP56 rated collector, LV junction box, and reel control panel.
  • Anti-condensation heater systems included.
  • Galvanized and painted steel structure.

Dimensional Features and Weights
  • Available in configurations for 1, 2, or 3 cables, with varying dimensions and weights.
  • Max power output varies by configuration, up to 1.25 MVA.

Compliance
The PowerRun system complies with IEC PAS 80005-3 standards for Low Voltage Shore Connection (LVSC) Systems, ensuring adherence to general requirements for utility connections in ports.

PowerRun LV-1

Cavotec is a leading cleantech company that designs and delivers connection and electrification solutions to enable the decarbonization of ports and industrial applications. Cavotec pioneered ShorePower technology in the 80s. We design, manufacture and deliver innovative turnkey ShorePower solutions that allow our customers to take charge of their own futures. Overview PowerRun is a skid-mounted cable reeling system for LV connection that provides moored ships with electrical power. The system makes it possible to pay out one or more multicore power and signal cables safely, lay them up on a ship and establish connection to the electrical grid with Cavotec Power Connector PC4, up to 250A, or PC5, up to 400A. PowerRun’s hydrodynamic technology maintains cable tension, preventing cables from slacking when vessels move due to displacement, waves, and tidal motion. The system includes a number of features to ensure safe operation: • Audible and visual alarms activate when last two turns of cable are available on the drum; cam limit switch for sensing drum full/empty contacts • Hydrodynamic slipping clutch integrated into gearbox; active CMS incorporating tide compensation function as defined by PAS/IEC 80005:3 • Cable guide with multi-rollers that allow for proper bending radius of cables • Multi cable PowerRun equipped with dedicated connector holders to reel-out only the cable needed by the specific vessel • The system is operated by Cavotec Radio Remote Control (RRC) units, MC-2-3 or MC-25, which are robust, lightweight, compact, and highly ergonomic push-button RRCs • Emergency stop Benefits • Rapid connection of cables to ships’ electrical supply with Cavotec PC5 push-pull connectors that can also be integrated with fibre optics • Separate pre-wired plugs to provide auxiliary power to PowerRun and for connecting all status monitoring shore side DATASHEET | ShorePower Systems | PowerRun LV December 2021 | DAS-SP-02 • Alarm and signalling on PowerRun unit enable remote supervision, including reeling in and out, auto mode, emergency stop, last two turns of cable, last turn of cable • An
