LV Electronics of SETCON: Reliable, Durable, and built with Proven Components

The SETCON variable speed gearbox is distinguished by its highly competitive low-voltage electrical components, including Frequency Converters and Control Cabinet. SETCON electronics are designed for maximum safety and immunity, ensuring robust performance even in the harshest ambient conditions.

·      What distinguishes SETCON Electronics from others?
SET Sustainable Energy Technologies GmbH implements standardized components from well-known, reliable suppliers — proven to deliver outstanding durability over decades of operation. This ensures SETCON technology consistently meets the highest standards of reliability, while also simplifying maintenance.

An added advantage of SETCON low-voltage electronics is that they require minimal specialized qualifications from on-site engineers for maintenance, making them easy to service. Unlike high-voltage systems, which often demand complex certifications, SETCON low-voltage solution allows quick, efficient upkeeps with lower operational overhead.

Frequency Converters and Control Cabinet of SETCON variable speed gearbox

According to the industrial research, low-voltage electronics have demonstrated superior resilience to power surges, vibrations, and temperature fluctuations, making them particularly suitable for demanding environments like Oil & Gas plants. Additionally, these components benefit from longer operational life due to reduced wear and tear on insulation and connectors, commonly seen in high-voltage systems. This increases MTBF (mean time between failures), ensuring a longer service life with minimal disruptions.

SETCON compact packaging size of Frequency Converters and Control Cabinet is another key benefit. Despite their advanced capabilities, they are designed to occupy minimal space, streamlining the installation process in restricted areas, particularly beneficial for retrofits or offshore applications where space is a premium. This reduces the overall footprint and integrates easily into existing systems.

By combining this electrical reliability with the space-saving design (https://lnkd.in/dApSQsdt) and durability of SETCON mechanical systems, the variable speed gearbox continues to set the standard for reliability, safety, and ease of maintenance in the energy market.

High energy efficiency is obligatory for industries to stay competitive

– said the Executive Director of the International Energy Agency (IEA) Fatih Birol in the frame of World Economic Forum 2024 this week:

“Investments in energy efficiency are the most important now. In most cases, they pay back in 2-3 years… Even regardless of climate, just for our pockets, for our energy security, and also remain competitive. The companies who do NOT put enough emphasis on energy efficiency will be less competitive vis-a-vis others. This is a real fact now”.

With SET Sustainable Energy Technologies GmbH, the energy efficiency goal is more realistic than ever nowadays. Read our article about SETCON variable-speed drive to find energy benefits for your industry: “Why SETCON is the most energy efficient VSD on market”
