Motor Control Centre, Secureconnect

Allen-Bradley Centerline 2100 Motor Control Centre (MCC) from Rockwell Automation can help reduce workers’ exposure to live voltage with SecureConnect. This new, optional safety feature allows operators to disconnect the power from an individual MCC plug-in unit without opening the enclosure door or entering the arc flash boundary. SecureConnect – the latest addition to the industry-leading electrical safety portfolio from Rockwell Automation – enables personnel to disengage an individual MCC unit from the power source before opening the door to perform maintenance or troubleshooting, which can be done at the unit or remotely. Confirmation of complete power removal process is provided by SecureConnect’s multipoint validation system, which notifies operators when the unit’s power stabs are entirely withdrawn from the vertical bus, further decreasing the risk of hazardous electrical incidents. In addition, SecureConnect helps companies get their processes back up and running faster by reducing the need to obtain hot-work permits when servicing equipment. Because SecureConnect isolates a single unit from the power source, the remaining MCC units can operate without interruption. SecureConnect addresses safety at the unit level, adding a third tier to the Rockwell Automation safety portfolio for low-voltage MCCs.
