Increase personnel and motor control center safety with arc flash containment

To help increase workplace safety, a CENTERLINE 2100 motor control center offers ArcShield arc-resistant equipment options. Arc flash containment is recommended for high-current applications – often used in the oil, gas, mining, water treatment and power generation industries. 

ArcShield arc-resistant equipment meets Type 2 accessibility requirements as defined by IEEE C37.20.7. The specification allows personnel to be shielded at the front, rear and sides of the enclosure in the unlikely event of an arcing fault.

ArcShield arc-resistant equipment provides:

  • Ratings up to 3000 A at 480V and up to 2500 A at 600V
  • More protection against internal electrical arcing faults
  • Arc flash-resistant latches on all doors to keep the door latched during an electric arc
  • Arc-resistant baffles in all vented units to enable adequate heat dissipation and provide arc containment

Provide additional motor control center safety with SecureConnect™ units

Reduce exposure to electrical hazards by disconnecting power from a motor control center plug-in unit without opening the enclosure door.

  • Streamline maintenance and reduce downtime by more effectively isolating units when maintenance is required
  • A “snap action” retractable stab mechanism helps reduce electrical shock and hazards by quickly disconnecting the stabs and isolating them behind shutters when the unit is still installed
  • An extra lockout/tagout location helps prevent three-phase power from being supplied to the unit
  • The integrated lockout mechanism arm can be pulled out and locked when desired
  • A remote option allows operators to connect and disconnect SecureConnect™ units from the MCC
