Details of Russelectric critical power equipment upgrades
Russelectric, a Siemens Business, is a manufacturer of power control systems, switchgear and automatic transfer switches, with manufacturing facilities in Massachusetts and Oklahoma. This week, the company upgraded system controls for critical power equipment aimed at improving reliability, operational control, and maintenance.
Upgrading control systems is a nice way to get improved performance and capabilities at a lower cost versus full equipment replacement. Upgrades are also quicker. Russelectric Field Engineers conduct these upgrades, and all work is backed by the Russelectric warranty.
Russelectric ATS Upgrades
Russelectric offers upgrades to automatic transfer switch/bypass isolation switch control systems during a scheduled shutdown to enhance switch operating accuracy and functionality. Control, monitoring, and communication protocols are upgraded to eliminate concerns about legacy component availability.
Operator Interface Technology and Communications
Upgrade to the latest operator interface technology and communications equipment to significantly enhance system monitoring capabilities. Russelectric will provide detailed information on the current system status through a dynamic one-line graphical interface, along with complete alarm and event history for a quick problem response. In addition, optional TJC (The Joint Commission) reporting and optional remote system access are offered by Russelectric.
Russelectric PLC Upgrades
Many existing systems utilize legacy or soon-to-be obsolete PLC architecture. Russelectric will upgrade control systems to the latest technology with minimal program changes to improve performance and accommodate advanced communications. Most upgrades can be completed without interrupting critical loads or operational changes, with drop-in replacements available.
Breaker Upgrade Solutions
Russelectric will replace obsolete/unsupported vintage power breakers and accessories with new OEM-supplied replacements adapted for form, fit, and function to improve overcurrent selectivity. Updating circuit breakers enables the utilization of new options and accessories such as arc reduction modes and Zone Selective Interlocking (ZSI), while eliminating concerns about parts availability for circuit breaker repairs. Upgrades are available for various circuit breaker manufacturers.
