Schneider Electric South Africa has announced the availability of its innovative TeSys T intelligent and flexible motor management system. Designed to protect and monitor installations demanding high levels of production equipment availability, the TeSys T dramatically increases process performance and reduces operational costs. Its advanced functionality includes current/voltage monitoring and protection, power measurement, fault management, pre-defined control modes, the recording of operation history and statistics and local logic and programmable I/O.
According to Moratehi Ndlebe, PWCTR product manager at Schneider Electric SA, utilising the TeSys T system results in a more efficient business as the controller is equipped with a communication interface that remotely supervises and controls the motor.
“The communication platform is completely open, incorporating all communication buses available on the market: Ethernet, ModBus, CANopen, DeviceNet and Profibus. This ensures that information required to optimise and monitor processes – including parameter setting and activation of protection devices; configuration and management of motor controls; motor status monitoring such as alarms and tripping and data exchange such as diagnostic, histories and counters – is accessible at all times, both locally and remotely.
“Extremely easy to implement, the TeSys T’s sense of protection, openness, and performance effectively equips motor starters with a genuine ‘sixth sense’.”
Quality information can be fed in real-time about the machine’s status and control commands can be accepted via an automation network. An operator display can also be connected to the TeSys T providing local control, monitoring and parameter configuration. Utilising TeSys T in a motor control centre makes it possible to conduct preventative maintenance, reduce machine downtime and maximise machine efficiency, ultimately resulting in reduced operational expenditure.
