New
Delhi, October 30, 2024 : Schneider Electric, the leader in the digital transformation
of energy management and automation, launched the MasterPacT MTZ Active, a
revolutionary new circuit breaker designed to set new benchmarks for safety,
efficiency, and sustainability while ensuring business continuity. In a world
increasingly driven by electricity and digitization, MasterPacT MTZ Active
enables customers to respond to complex daily challenges, including 24/7 uptime
demands, spiraling energy costs, and urgent calls for sustainable practices.
“MasterPacT MTZ Active will empower
operators to visualize and monitor their energy consumption in real time,”
explains Nikhil
Pathak, Vice President, Power Products and Digital Energy, Schneider Electric,
Greater India. “This real-time insight will equip
businesses to optimize energy management, reduce consumption, minimize waste,
and ensure business continuity and enhance reliability.
“A more electric and digital world is key to addressing
the energy and climate crises. In industries such as Healthcare, Food &
Beverage, Life Sciences, Data Center, Building, etc, power is becoming more
distributed and increasingly complex to manage. We have an existing legacy of
35+ years in designing and making air circuit breakers for safety and security.
MasterPacT MTZ Active is our latest offering to accelerate energy efficiency coupled
with high reliability, optimizing asset life without compromising on
functionality or safety.”
This
superior product comes equipped with features such as and Native ERMs (Energy
Reduction Maintenance Settings), which sets a new benchmark enhancing the
protection of maintenance operators against arc flash hazards.
In response to circuit breaker trips
caused by overloads, short circuits, and equipment ground faults, the control
unit of MasterPacT MTZ Active introduces a pioneering QR code solution. This
innovative feature allows operators to swiftly access guidance tailored to the
specific root cause of the trip by scanning the QR code. In the event of an
overload, the solution provides clear instructions to evenly redistribute loads
across circuits, eliminating the need for time-consuming manual searches.
For
35 years, the MasterPacT name has been synonymous with circuit breaker
innovation and reliability, with several million units in service worldwide. Now,
with smart, connected power distribution becoming a must-have, Schneider
Electric is expanding the range again to advance circuit breaker performance. MasterPacT
MTZ Active features an electrical control unit that serves as the brains of the
breaker, allowing facility managers to monitor and measure power use in real
time.
Advancing
safety and sustainability
MasterPacT
MTZ Active sets new benchmarks for safety and sustainability. An embedded
Energy Reduction Maintenance Setting (ERMS) guards maintenance personnel
against arc flash hazards, and the control unit’s intuitive design facilitates
the setting of all protection functions, including current, time delays, and
alarms. It is further equipped with one of the industry-first features of
transformer efficiency monitoring.
Designed
for circularity, MasterPacT MTZ Active breakers can be refurbished by Schneider
Electric for a second life with their original guarantee, thereby reducing
waste and promoting sustainability.
As
electrification and digitalization transform power supply and demand worldwide,
Schneider Electric continues to evolve its MasterPacT offer based on input from
our customers to deliver robust and reliable circuit breaker performance.
