Fixed-Mounted Circuit-Breaker Switchgear Type NXPLUS up to 40.5 kV, SF6-<strong>Insulated</strong><br />
Application<br />
Requirements<br />
Typical uses<br />
Fixed-mounted circuit-breaker switchgear<br />
NXPLUS is used in transformer<br />
and switching substations, e. g. in:<br />
■ Power supply companies<br />
■ Power stations<br />
■ Cement industry<br />
■ Automobile industry<br />
■ Iron and steelworks<br />
■ Rolling mills<br />
■ Mining industry<br />
■ Textile, paper and food industries<br />
■ Chemical industry<br />
■ Petroleum industry<br />
■ Pipeline installations<br />
■ Offshore installations<br />
■ Electrochemical plants<br />
■ Petrochemical plants<br />
■ Shipbuilding industry<br />
■ Diesel power plants<br />
■ Emergency power supply installations<br />
■ Lignite open-cast mines<br />
■ Traction power supply systems<br />
Features<br />
Environmental independence<br />
Welded switchgear vessels<br />
made of stainless steel without<br />
seals and enclosed cable plugs<br />
make NXPLUS switchgear<br />
• Insensitive to aggressive ambient<br />
conditions such as salt<br />
water, humidity, dust and<br />
temperature<br />
• Hermetically tight to ingress<br />
of foreign bodies such as dust<br />
and dirt<br />
• Independent of site altitude<br />
Compact design<br />
Thanks to the SF 6 -insulation,<br />
compact dimensions are<br />
possible up to 40.5 kV.<br />
Thus,<br />
• Existing switchgear rooms<br />
can be used effectively<br />
• Reduced costs for new<br />
constructions<br />
• Expensive city-area space is<br />
saved<br />
Maintenance-free design<br />
Switchgear vessels designed<br />
as sealed pressure systems,<br />
maintenance-free switching<br />
devices and enclosed cable<br />
plugs ensure<br />
• Maximized power supply<br />
reliability<br />
• Personal safety<br />
• Sealed-for-life design<br />
according to IEC 60 298<br />
• Installation, operation,<br />
extension and replacement<br />
without SF 6 -gas work<br />
• Reduced operating costs<br />
• Cost-efficient investment<br />
• No maintenance cycles<br />
• Reduced overall LCC<br />
(Life-Cycle Cost)<br />
Innovations<br />
The use of numerical<br />
substation control and<br />
protection systems and<br />
combined protection and<br />
control devices ensure<br />
• Clear integration in process<br />
control systems<br />
• Flexible and highly simplified<br />
adaptation to new<br />
system conditions and<br />
thus to cost-efficient<br />
operation<br />
