In addition, we offer energy distribution bus-ducts and medium voltage/low voltage cabling, generator circuit breakers, generator step-up and auxiliary transformers, emergency and backup power generation as well as the necessary protection and control equipment.
Medium Voltage Switchgear
Our Type MS-EBG Medium Voltage Switchgear is an essential component of systems for the distribution of medium voltage electrical energy in the plant, ensuring reliable and safe distribution and switching of medium voltage electrical power throughout your plant and provides extensive protection of all medium voltage electrical equipment it supplies. We offer a package of highest possible safety, efficiency and availability for your plant. This includes the complete switchgear offer of circuit breakers, protection relays plus metering and energy analyzers. Our MS-EBG Medium Voltage Switchgear is type-tested to IEC 62271 standards conformance, setting standards for long, trouble-free life and safe service. In short, we cover the entire voltage range from 3.3 to 24kV and current ratings of up to 4000A busbar rated current and short-circuit withstand current of up to, 40kA / 3s and IP4X environmental protection (with IP55 as an option).
Medium Voltage Drives
Our portfolio includes a wide range of medium voltage drives with output voltage of 3.3kV, 6.6kV and 11kV (13.8kV) and power rating of up to 20,000 kW. Our drive range of offered products encompasses both regenerative TMdrive MVe2 and non-regenerative TMdrive MVG2 types.
Low Voltage Switchgear
Our Type LS-EBG Low Voltage Switchgear covers all low voltage power distribution and switching applications from main distribution boards, through Motor Control Centers (MCCs) to smaller building power distribution systems. LS-EBG includes a flexible configuration with a wide range of options. It provides protection against overload, short-circuit and electrocution and represents a switchgear package of highest possible reliability, safety, scalability and flexibility – all offered in a turnkey manner if required. LS-EBG covers voltage levels of up to 400Vac or 690Vac / 1000Vdc, busbar current ratings of up to 6800A, and short-circuit withstand currents of up to 120kA / 1s. LS-EBG’s environmental protection ranges from IP31 up to IP54 protection.
Low Voltage Variable Frequency Drives and soft starters
The Mitsubishi Electric FREQROL family of low voltage drives series includes several different variable frequency drives with a power output range of 0 – 1,500kW starting from low-power drives of small form factor (230V single-phase or 400V 3-phase range) to high power drives with advanced functions (380V – 690V 3-phase supply).
Transformers
Our transformer portfolio includes power and distribution transformers (oil- and dry-type) for MV/LV applications. Based on Mitsubishi Electric’s rich experience in manufacturing transformers since 1910, it is possible to precisely match customer specification and quality requirements. We provide transformers together with comprehensive transformer protection relays and monitoring equipment.
Protection Relays and energy analyzing meters
Any electrical system requires extensive operational control as well as protection against off-design conditions. With Mitsubishi Electric‘s various digital protection relays, this requirement is more than adequately met, with several options to choose from including IEC 61850 compliant relays. The EMC-B is perfect for general low voltage motor protection, while the MELPRO-D protection relay series is specialized for MV digital protection applications. MEprotect is an extremely versatile DIN-rail mountable protection relay, equally at home in Medium Voltage and Low Voltage applications. Moreover, we offer energy analyzers such as our type ME96SS multi-measurement instruments. They provide the full gamut of power, energy and power quality measurements plus communication ports needed for all high-spec installations.
Power Quality Management Systems
Any facility consuming significant amounts of electrical energy requires effective power quality management to track, avoid or better react to unexpected power interruptions including spikes, dips, surges or outages (and plant downtime), reduce utility bills through better power factor compensation, avoid penalties due to excessive harmonics and increase safety of the connected electric devices. By using our Power Quality Management Systems, compliance with international power quality standards and regulations is ensured, so that utility connection permits are issued and the facility can be energized and brought online without costly project delays and penalties.
PMSXsas Substation Automation System
PMSXsas provides you with the opportunity to plan and execute your next EBoP installation as a smart substation project – confidently and without risk. PMSXsas clearly depicts substation primary (electrical) network state in addition to that of the system’s secondary network (control and protection scheme – protection equipment vendor neutral). Moreover, it supervises and regulates the safe operation of all remote-controllable breakers in the substation. The solution also includes monitoring of all substation components, such as transformers, power quality equipment, major loads, etc. With respect to compliance with IEC 61850 standards, PMSXsas auto-discovers the network, control and protection topologies from the substation’s SCD-files, reducing setup costs and the chance of human error. Additional features are bidirectional maximum power control (demand or export), high-speed event recording and high precision disturbance analysis. The highest possible level of cyber-security will be ensured so that the system can be controlled locally or remotely for a network dispatch center.
Uninterruptible Power Supply (AC/DC)
The Mitsubishi Electric‘s Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) products range from small, single-phase (6 to 12 kVA) UPS to large three-phase (10 to 2,000 kVA) UPS covering all possible applications. The focus of our UPS design is on maximal reliability and availability, which is made possible by fast mean time to repair with modular hot-swap critical components. Our three-phase uninterruptible power supply systems are designed to be modular and expandable, so you can increase your backup power support as your needs change. Supported by silicon carbide technology, online double conversion and compatible with a range of battery solutions, including lithium ion, you can rely on our three phase UPS products to protect your equipment.
