Schneider Electric introduces safety-focused air circuit breaker

Global industrial technology leader Schneider Electric has announced the launch of the new MasterPacT MTZ Active as a purpose-built circuit breaker that meets the evolving safety needs of industrial operators inside the switch room.
Complementing the existing MasterPacT range, the new model is equipped with the MicroLogic Active controller. This offers superior safety features, including an Energy Reduction Maintenance Setting (ERMS) that enables push-button safety from arc flash. This simple-to-use mechanism ensures business continuity across the industrial supply chain. MasterPacT MTZ Active with MicroLogic Active represents a cost-effective and intuitive solution for manufacturing, mining, critical infrastructure, critical and non-critical buildings.

OEMs, panel builders, plant managers, and maintenance professionals can benefit from the simplicity of MasterPacT MTZ with MicroLogic Active, offering seamless integration into legacy facilities and other sites where remote monitoring is not possible, as well as secure data analytics.

The design of the new MicroLogic Active was driven by simplicity. Its intuitive interface lets operators see breaker health with one glance using data from built-in monitoring. Furthermore, the controller is equipped with near field communication (NFC) so that operators can download data such as state of health and operating records to inform maintenance plans. This ease-of-use is built upon Schneider Electric's 35-year heritage for circuit breakers that have set the benchmark for safety.

Matthew James, Marketing Offer Manager LV & MV Switchgear at Schneider Electric said, "The MasterPacT MTZ Active is not only a game-changer in terms of safety, but also redefines simplicity and usability for our customers. By combining advanced features like ERMS with a user-friendly interface, we're enabling operators to work more confidently, knowing that arc flash safety is accessible at the push of a button."

Key features of the MasterPacT MTZ Active include:

- Energy Reduction Maintenance Setting (ERMS) - providing a significant upgrade in local arc flash mitigation. A single push button enables the trip unit to increase sensitivity to arc faults, rapidly isolating faults to reduce the risk and severity of arc flash incidents during maintenance or inspections

- New Micrologic Active trip unit interface - delivering a more intuitive and user-friendly experience. This enhanced UI streamlines operations and simplifies interaction for contractors and consultants, ensuring smooth integration into electrical infrastructure projects

- Built-in current monitoring that delivers real-time data locally for better decision-making and maintenance planning

- Near Field Communication (NFC) for operators to download data on asset health and tripping records when in close proximity to the electrical panel

Wherever power is used in industry, there is a need for reliability, to protect workers, machines, process continuity and electrical infrastructure from faults and arc flash.

The MasterPacT MTZ Active is designed to analyse circuit conditions continuously and open the circuit breaker to ensure rapid response and minimise disruption, while it is based on high-performance materials to ensure reliable breaking performance. Any electrical equipment has the potential to result in costly downtime that varies from sector to sector, making circuit protection an essential component for businesses looking to use every energy resource effectively.

The MasterPact MTZ Active is engineered to deliver Schneider Electric's hallmarks of sustainability, innovation, and safety for critical industrial applications including data centres, commercial buildings, and heavy industrial plants.
