NEMA Heavy Duty pump panel

New 3RE48 Pump Panels

The latest addition to the Siemens pump controller family, the 3RE48 pump panel, is similar to the classic Class 87 pump panel. It is specifically designed for irrigation, oil fields and similar pumping applications and is built to withstand the harsh elements of the outdoors. Though both products are nearly identical and are equally suited for the aforementioned applications, the 3RE48 has an advantage. The 3RE48 sports the latest and more advanced contactor technology with the SIRIUS NEMA rated contactor. Not only is it designed, constructed, tested and certified per the same NEMA requirements as that of the Class 87 NEMA contactor, but includes a 3-year warranty.

Benefits of the 3RE48 Pump Panel

The 3RE48 provides these additional customer benefits:

 

1. Cost savings:  It is typically priced 15%  lower than the Class 87 pump panel.

 

2. Reliability:  Superior protection against high humidity, condensation, and corrosive environments thanks to the protective coating on the circuit board of the ESP200 overload relay.

 

3. Extended product life:  Superior corrosion resistance due to enclosure fabricated with galvannealed steel versus conventional cold rolled steel.

 

4. Safety:  High fault interrupting ratings up to 100kA at 600V.

 

5. Ease of Installation:  Oversized enclosure to pull and terminate large power conductors and for field installing additional components.

 

6. Assurance:  Reduced risk of investment via a 3-year limited warranty on the advanced SIRIUS NEMA rated contactor and coil packaged in the 3RE48 pump panel.

Ski lift standardizing on SIRIUS Act pushbuttons

Refined pushbuttons and indicator lights for extreme conditions

You’re going to need modern and reliable operator controls when your machines or systems are operated outdoors due to exposure to harsh elements. Leitner ropeways can testify that the look and feel of our rugged and refined SIRIUS ACT devices.
Water/Waste Water pumping stations using SIRIUS 3RW5 soft starters eliminate pump blockages

Clean wastewater pumps without fiber collection

Impellers are frequently blocked by sanitary and other waste products that are not intended for removal in wastewater. Blockages of this kind can be a costly aspect of wastewater handling and have to be removed manually. This is why its helpful to have SIRIUS soft starters, they can help reduce this manual effort when your pumps get blocked
Rock Quarries avoid failures due to load fluctuations with auto parameterization

Avoiding failures due to load fluctuations

Loads fluctuate when bulk solids are being conveyed or processed. These fluctuations might be caused by a change in the angle of the conveyor belt, which influences the parameters. If the parameters that you have selected for subsequent motor starts do no match the altered load, you can damage the machine or get an aborted start. But, you can avoid all of this with the SIRIUS soft starters. They make it easier to start your conveyor systems.
Stop pumps without water hammer with SIRIUS 3RW5 soft starters

Stopping pumps without water hammer

Switching off pumps that carry large volumes of water is a critical issue for wastewater plant operators. The pump stops immediately, causing the water in the pipes to also stop immediately and the kinetic energy left in the water is transmitted as water hammer causing serious damage to pipes, couplings, valves, and seals. But, abrupt stopping can be avoided with the SIRIUS 3RW55 soft starter’s pump stopping function.
Conveyor belt using a integrated solution to avoid repeated down time

Reducinging maintenance work in conveyor systems

In a conventional set-up, contactors have to be repeatedly replaced due to contacts welding as a result of the continuous load on the conveyor lines. This leads to a high amount of maintenance work with repeated short system downtimes. That’s where space-saving distributed motor starters can play a vital role; Siemens introduces the SIMATIC ET 200SP with hybrid technology and integrated diagnostics data.
Space-saving controls for assembly conveyors complying with safety requirements

Safe, space-saving control of assembly conveyors

Get more functionality in a small amount of space with SIRIUS motor starters. When it comes to employee safety at assembly stations, assembly conveyors must comply with very strict requirements. If the system also has to be flexible at the same time, compact, safe motor starter solutions are required so that enough space is left in the control panel for future modifications and expansions.
SIRIUS soft starters your reliable go-to design for conveyor belt motors

Reliable design for conveyor belt motors

Conveyor systems are usually modernized to optimize plant operation and availability and when the motors behind these systems are monitored effectively, changes and imminent interruptions to the operation can be detected early. In order to see this early detection, any additional diagnostic equipment must be integrated within the existing space already occupied by the plant. That's where a comprehensive conditioning and fault monitoring process plays a vital role. Which is why SIRIUS soft starters are your go-to solution for conveyor belt motors.
SIRIUS Modular industrial Controls for machines and plant management

Modular industrial controls

No machine or plant can be managed without low-voltage controls; every device, be it a protection, switching, measuring or monitoring device, has to be individually selected, designed and commissioned. This calls for expertise and experience from users in all industry sectors.
SIRIUS Act ID Key for operation only by authorized personnel

Setting authorizations for machine access individually

Many industrial machines and systems may only be operated by authorized personnel and are fitted with key-operated switches. However, if certain machine functions are only supposed to be available for a specific person or group, this cannot be achieved by using simple key-operated switches and need more sophistication. What if you could have switches with RFID technology to enable a complex management of rights?
Dry running pump in hazardous area protected with SIMOCODE

Protecting pumps in hazardous areas against dry running

If flammable media are transported in hazardous areas, the centrifugal pumps used must be protected against dry running. Therefore, they are monitored conventionally with level sensors, however, these are susceptible to faults and require intensive maintenance. With SIMOCODE pro, Siemens supplies an innovative monitoring technology that redefines dry-running protection in hazardous areas.
Blocked pumps at water utility

Blocked pumps are a topic of the past

Every water utility is familiar with the problem of a blocked pump and the possible consequences. Environmental impacts, damage due to flooding, as well as health hazards associated with the lifting and cleaning of pumps, you’ve had experienced them all. Another problem can be the financial impacts of a plant shutdown. In your search for a suitable solution, operators, like you, take certain approaches into account, such as the over-dimensioning of pumps. The removal of blockages is often a routine service task. Now, with SIMOCODE pro’s solution for blocked pumps, you can save time and money.
