Availability by design

Improved logistics and stock controlIn terms of accessories, our new range couldn’t be morestraightforward. This is because ABB’s engineers have devel-oped all of the components that make up the product line touse the same standardised set of accessories. The MS132family also facilitates the reduction of your warehousing andlogistical requirements by making use of the same accessoriesfor both the MS116 and the MS132, or through the assimilationof AC and DC control supply modes into a single line of con-tactors.

Fewer production shortagesABB’s engineers have spent a great deal of time out in the field listening to your needs. The outcome of this research is a range that has been especially tailored to help you avoid production shortages. Innovative features such as our standardised 45 mmhousing take the guesswork out of maintenance and help youkeep downtimes to an absolute minimum – genuine compatibility that you can depend on, day in, day out.

Reduced inventory of partsABB’s new range makes managing your inventory easier thanever before. Conceived with simplicity in mind, our engineershave made it possible to integrate the entire family into just afew components. That not only simplifies the ordering process,but also reduces the logistical complexity of your inventory,making ordering your stock a snap.

Greater exchangeabilityABB has designed its innovative new range with exchangeability in mind. For example, our range of standard-width 45 mmcontactors features just 4 coils covering nominal voltages from 24 to 500 V 50/60 Hz and 20 to 500 V DC. This facilitates planning and enables you to be more flexible – which, in turn, reduces costs and simultaneously increases availability.

Reduced weight – reduced fuel expenditureOur new family of motor control and protection devices has been developed right from the drawing-board stage to be up to a third lighter than comparable devices on the market, making the storage and transport of our products more simple and more economical. This substantial reduction in weight is another key component in our drive to reduce environmental impact by helping to decrease fuel expenditure and increase sustainability.

Safety through reliability

Maximum dependability under the toughest conditionsOur new family of motor control and protection devices hasbeen created with the twin pillars of application-reliability anduser-safety at the very forefront of the design.

Typical local problems such as poor network quality won’taffect our contactors at all. They are not only completelychatter-proof and hum-free, but voltage drops and sags/dipsare now a thing of the past. Moreover, the contactors arecompatible with most PLC outputs and offer built-in coil surgesuppression.

Safer installation – safer operationOur engineers have integrated a host of new features to makeyour job easier, safer and more straightforward than ever before. For example, our new AC/DC contactors combine both control supply modes in a single unit, eliminating the risk of errors. A vastly reduced total number of modules improves clarity when selecting, ordering and installing your equipment. Our innovative touch-safe features protect you against accidental contact during operation by means of protective covers.

Ultimate reliability in harsh environments ABB’s new line of industrial motor control and protectiondevices has been developed for deployment in the toughestof industrial scenarios where absolute reliability is a require-ment, not an option. For example, you can use ABB’s newcontactors under even the harshest of ambient conditionsranging from -40 °C up to +70 °C, testimony to just how readyfor the challenge this feature-rich industrial product line is.

Lower resistance – lower energy consumptionWhen we challenged ABB’s design engineers to produce aconcept to gear the innovative new range of devices towardslower power utilisation, they certainly didn’t disappoint. Theresulting revolutionary design is a circuit that achieves lessresistance per phase, a reduction in thermal load and lowerenergy consumption – a combination that not only helps toprotect the environment, but also reduces your energy costs.
