MNS R Low Voltage Switchgear

Click image to zoom

MNS R main low voltage distribution switchgear with rear access was designed for use in large electrical installations such as those in petrochemical plants, steel works, rolling mills, power stations, oil rigs, ships, etc. The service conditions in these plants are often extremely severe: the high currents involved and effective short-circuit levels require high performance switchgear.

In addition, safe conditions for the personnel, service continuity, easy inspection, maintenance, construction and installation must also be guaranteed. Simply installed extensions and compact overall dimensions are a must.

MNS R Power Center switchgear fully complies with all these requirements. But that's not all. Since it integrates perfectly into all the latest generation ABB apparatus, compliance with all market requirements is guaranteed.
