intelligent Power & Motor Control Centre for continuous and critical process

Value proposition

Main drivers

• In today's highly competitive markets, actors in industry and infrastructure need to maximise production time ensuring that installations are operational within the specified time periods, increasing the dependability of the production tool in total safety, reducing costs, saving energy and boosting your competitiveness.

Solution in brief

• The MotorSys ^TM iPMCC solutions are the keystone of the LV energy efficiency of workshops. They ensure the power supply as well as the control and protection of electric motors and loads.
  
• They include a complete range of functions for: 
  - the power circuit protection and control (intelligent Power Control Centre - iPCC), 
  - the motor control and protection (intelligent Motor Control Centre - iMCC),  
  - the LV electrical energy management (intelligent Power & Motor Control Centre - iPMCC).
• They were developed through the specific expertise of Schneider Electric in energy and industrial process automation management.

Value proposition

• They perfectly integrate into any site infrastructure through intelligent and communicating architectures allowing a fast and easy access to key information from anywhere around the clock (see the illustration below), for energy efficiency of assets and maximised production time, up to 15% increase in productivity.

Key benefits

• The MotorSys ^TM iPMCC solutions help the workshop teams optimise the energy efficiency of assets, offering the following benefits:
  - High reliability and increased dependability of the installation, even in severe industrial environments:
     up to 70% reduction in untimely shutdowns
  - Safety of personnel and assets, maintainability and uprgradability:
     up to 90% fewer motor burns-out
  - Lead time management and cost reduction throughout the installation's entire lifecycle:
     up to 50% reduction in maintenance costs
  - Energy management for efficient consumption and usage:
     up to 30% electrical energy consumption reduction and costs allocation

Solution architecture

• Given the complexity of data flows and communication network infrastructures, from instrumentation to corporate management systems, simple to integrate and scalable solutions are the natural choice.

• MotorSys ^TM iPMCC solutions are based on architectures that have been pre-tested and pre-validated by experts both in electrical distribution and process automation, on the Schneider Electric's research and development platform dedicated to innovative solutions ; thus ensuring a simple integration to the local industrial netwok (LAN), with any of the leading communication protocols used in process industry and infrastructures: Ethernet TCP/IP, Profibus-DP, DeviceNet, Modbus,....
