ABB Electrification Solutions
MNS
The MNS is an industrial low voltage switchgear and motor control centre
platform suitable for all applications such as metal, pulp and paper,
chemical, oil and gas, power plants, offshore and marine installations, as
well as where the requirement is to guarantee maximum safety standards,
together with plant availability, flexibility and maintenance simplicity.
Footprint optimisation is guaranteed by the possibility of having both front
and rear access configurations, with or without stacked air circuit
breakers. Wall standing and back-to-back installations complete the offer.
The MNS platform is designed to comply with maximum safety standards
in order to minimise personnel risks, even in case of incorrect operations
with both passive and active protections.
MNS Digital
MNS Digital is a scalable, modular, low-voltage smart switchgear with
connected intelligent features that enable remote operation, monitoring MNS Rear Access
and condition-based maintenance.
MNS Digital can connect to the ABB Ability cloud platform or to a local
SCADA system. Fully leveraging ABB Ability, MNS Digital offers
customers insights into their operation by making data and information
available to any connected device or plant.
MNS Digital can connect to the ABB Ability platform via the MNS Digital
smart devices in the switchgear. The uploaded signal data can then be
interpreted by applying Big Data methods. This will enable predictive
capabilities, so instead of post-mortem analysis, ABB Ability enables
higher availability and optimised operating cost.
MNS-Up
MNS-Up innovation integrates uninterrupted power supply (UPS) and
switchgear technologies into a single and compact system. The system
comprises ABB’s Conceptpower DPA 500 UPS and ABB’s MNS
switchgear with Emax2 circuit breakers. MNS-Up’s modular design
expands in 100 kW steps so that companies just pay as they grow. Each
frame of the system can support up to five 100 kW UPS modules and up MNS Front Access
to six frames can combine to provide 3 MW of backup power supply. For
more power, further systems can be installed in parallel.
ABB can install MNS-Up in whatever configuration works best in the
space available – L-shape, U-shape, straight lines or back-to-back – and
all without external bus ducts or cables. By integrating proven UPS and
switchgear technologies into a single, modular system, MNS-Up saves
space, time and money.
MNS-Up enables users to save up to 10% capital in electrical
infrastructure. It requires up to 30% less space compared to traditional
architectures and can be up and running as much as 20% faster due to
reduced installation and commissioning time.
MNS PDU
Based on the MNS front access design, key to the success of the ABB PDU
is the flexibility it provides to the Data Centre Operator by allowing Single
Pole Solid Neutral (SPN), Single Pole Switched Neutral (SPSN), 3 or 4 pole
modules of different current ratings to be mixed and matched in the same
PDU. The safe working whilst live removes the need to power down even MNS-Up
when adding, removing or extending the number of outgoing ways.
When the process of the Data Centre changes, the PDU has the ability
to change with the process; this flexibility provides huge operational cost
savings. ABB PDUs have been in service for over 25 years and during
this time they have been re-configured to meet the ever changing needs
of the Data Centre Operator.
Commercial Switchgear
ABB is completing its portfolio with sub distribution switchboard solutions
designed to optimise cost and dimensions for all the lower performance
requirements.
Package Substations
ABB places particular emphasis on packaging the key elements of an
installations power requirement such as MV Switchgear, Transformers
and LV Switchgear. By utilising low energy and compact devices housed
in systems that are tried and tested to the latest national and international
standards, ABB can offer solutions to meet the most stringent of power
requirements including Packaged and Containerised solutions. MNS PDU

Classification
The classification of a cast resin transformer depends on the value of the no-load losses (Po), as well as the load losses (Pk), characteristics of the machine.
More precisely, Po losses are independent from the load and remain constant for the whole period the transformer is connected to the electric power
network. On the other hand, Pk losses only occur when the transformer is connected to a load and are proportional to the square of the load itself.

EURO-DIESEL can offer class leading control and monitoring as • Touch screen HMI
standard. The HMI is simplicity itself for the operator to not only control • Ethernet link with a network or PC
the NO-BREAK KS® systems but also to instantly retrieve and review • Dynamic IP address for external web-based connectivity
historical system information as well as critical events. • USB plug-in for downloads of events history and data logging
A master control panel is not required, saving additional space and • Automatic recognition of single or parallel configuration
interfacing requirements providing the advantage of enhanced resilience, • Intelligent diesel start reduction and ride through
no single point of failure and robustness with a EURO-DIESEL
• Peak-shaving and STOR/FDCM/FFR economy options
installation.
• Energy saving features in conditioning mode
The input stabilising filter system also includes the coupling choke; this connects the input grid supply with the UPS high quality output supply. It allows
large voltage differences between both AC systems by means of reactive currents for any direction, independent of the active power flow. The special
design of the choke provides a high degree of decoupling in both directions between the input and output.
The input current consists only of the sinusoidal fundamental waveform required for power transfer. Likewise, harmonics and transients in the input voltage
have no effect on the quality of the output voltage. This independence is achieved through the calculated combination of the coupling choke high impedance
characteristics to harmonic currents and the special design synchronous machine windings and selective damper cage representing a short circuit to
these harmonics, preventing reflection to the mains supply.

• Input power factor correction >0.98 from 0-100% load at nominal voltage
In the event of input short circuit, the current flow towards the grid network Vin +/- 10% V Alternator V Out
is limited by the choke at <200% I nominal until the input is disconnected.
During this transient situation, the coupling choke maintains the UPS bus
voltage, ensuring all kinetic stored energy can be fully utilised for
supporting the critical load.

Test
All technical data specified, such as current ratings and temperature rise,
insulation resistance, voltage and short circuit withstand, have been Low Voltage
certified in accordance with international standards (IEC, VDE or BS) by
the independent testing stations KEMA, LABORELEC, LCIE. Assembled
elements with cast junctions were submitted for typetesting.
Your power distribution system can be selective without sacrificing arc flash protection. ArcWatchTM = A balanced solution
Each circuit breaker will only operate when needed and act as back up only when
necessary.
WFR provides current limiting devices with the intelligence to recognise the
operation of downstream devices. An instantaneous algorithm allows a feeder GE
circuit breaker to be set very sensitive and still provide selectivity, while providing
instantaneous protection where you need it.
Only GE’s ArcWatchTM solution provides arc flash protection and instantaneous selective coordination – simultaneously!

Sensor Selection
The first design task is to select the most appropriate sensor type based
on the liquid to be detected and the area to be monitored.
TT1000-POINT-PROBE should be selected for water detection in areas
requiring a single point of detection, such as drip trays under HVAC units. Large Circuits, Concealed Sensors or Separated Areas – for large
TT1000 sensor cable should be selected for water detection in circuits (normally more than 40 meters or where sensors are distributed
commercial building applications where larger area coverage is required, between several separate areas) or installations where the sensor is
such as under raised floors in computer or telecom rooms, in building concealed and normally inaccessible, an alarm and location module is
service/utility areas, etc. most appropriate. The TT-TS12 provides voltage-free alarm contacts,
4-20 mA output, and digital communication via simple RS-485 wiring and
TT3000 sensor cable should be selected for aqueous chemical detection the ModBus protocol.
or for water detection in double contained pipe systems.
Alternatively, TTSIM modules can be connected either to the TT-TS12 or
TT5000 sensor cable should be selected for fuel and oil detection. directly to a building management system via RS-485 wiring. The TTSIM
TT5001 sensor cable should be selected for organic solvent detection. supports ModBus and Johnson Controls Metasys protocols directly,
TT7000 sensor cable should be selected for strong acid detection. providing complete sensor status and leak location information digitally
to the host system. The TT-TS12 can be connected to as many as 128
TTSIMs via a single RS-485 network, allowing extremely large leak
Sensor Layout detection systems to be easily configured and integrated.
The next design task is to determine the optimum sensor layout. The
sensing cable or point probe should be positioned so that leakage from
the potential leak sources will contact the sensor quickly, before reaching
any critical equipment, cables or other items to be protected.
Perimeter Protection – lay the sensing cable along the perimeter of the
room, at a minimum of 600mm from the wall.
Surface Protection – lay the sensing cable in a serpentine pattern
(typically on a 1.2 to 2 meter pitch) to protect larger surface areas.
Around Equipment – lay the sensing cable around equipment so that
leaks can be detected before spreading out.
Interconnecting Separate Areas – jumper cables, branch connectors,
and weighted length modules can be used to connect sensors from
separate areas into a single circuit, as illustrated below:

Test Laboratories
Customised Solutions
If our standard range does not fit your requirements, we can create a new custom-made solution – we deliver about 250 special solutions per month.
We have an entire team of first class designers, engineers and test technicians ready to develop tailor-made seals according to your needs.
Future Proof
The flexible system makes it easy to seal multiple cables and pipes in very few openings.
The seals allow pre-terminated cables and provide built-in spare capacity.
Users can stay competitive and deal with new needs and regulations as it is possible to add cables and pipes and extend the service life of projects –
without adding material costs.
Certificated Training -
Cutting & Forming Cable Basket
To ensure that the cutting and forming process is completed safely and
with a high degree of consistency, Unitrunk provide free on-site training.
The training takes about 30 minutes to complete and covers all the aspects
of cutting and forming that is likely to be required. The training is
certificated, so everyone who attends and takes part receives a formal
document to validate their participation. Additionally, attendee names will
be added to a database that Unitrunk maintains and each Site Manager
will receive a register for their records of all the operatives who have
undertaken the training.
To date, Unitrunk has trained 600+ site operatives, none of whom had
ever received any such instruction before. Unitrunk will provide – free of
charge – a set of bolt croppers to all sites where training is undertaken to
ensure the correct tool is being used. It is this level of support and
accountability that enables the contractor to have complete peace of mind
when using Unitrunk products. Unitrunk has also produced new cutting
and bending video content. Please visit www.unitrunk.co.uk to view.
CPD Presentations
Unitrunk has two CIBSE accredited presentations:-
(i) Cable Management Systems “Minimise Volume, Maximise Potential”
(ii) Zinc Whiskers - Understanding the Issue & Appreciating the Solution
To support the benefits that RIS (Rapid Installation Systems) products can provide, the content of both presentations has been compiled to enhance the
opportunities to reduce the material content, ensure that the correct material is specified and increase awareness of value engineering options that would
previously not have been considered.
With the advent of BIM Level 2, thoughtful and considered cable management specifications can have a significant effect on projects. Reducing the volume
of material being used can only be achieved by having knowledge of the standards and applying that knowledge appropriately. Unitrunk encourages early
engagement with the design team to maximise the opportunity for identifying and submitting any value engineering proposals to the client. The photograph
shows a Unitrunk ladder being used as the support for cable basket and busbar. Secured by suspension wire, this solution saved 20% on material cost
and 35% on labour.

Below is a small portion of advice taken from notes associated with one
of the Approved CPD training seminars that relate specifically to fire
detection design.
Detector Selection & Siting
Selection and siting of sensors (for further advice please refer to
Clauses 21 and 22 of BS 5839-1:2013)
The objective is to select the correct sensor for the appropriate application,
to provide the earliest warning of fire without the risk of a false alarm. It is
therefore worth trying to visualise the type of fire that is likely to occur in a
particular room or area and to familiarise oneself with the application and
the risks that could give rise to a false alarm.
It should also be remembered that a Vigilon system can incorporate a
whole range of different sensors using S-Quad multi-sensors. These can
be set up for different applications and can be switched from ‘state to state’
should particular risks be present for short periods of time. This should be
read in conjunction with the application / risk charts.
To download our free S-Quad Selector Mobile App for iPhone, iPad
and Android devices, please go to www.gent.co.uk
Obviously, conditions may vary depending on the particular application and
if there are any doubts, please contact Gent for further consultation.
Voice Alarm (VA) & Public Address (PA)
Voice messages are more effective than tone signals alone.
Research has shown in an alarm situation (EN 54 Part 16):
• 13% of people react in timely manner to bell tones
• 75% of people reacted quickly to a voice message explaining the
nature of the emergency
In addition to this, it was found that people will naturally use the entrance
they used to enter the building to leave even if it is not the closest.
The newly harmonised EN 54 Part 16 defines the specific functionality of
the VA equipment and applies to any component that is part of the core
functionality of VA. Our rack system is now certified as a complete unit, so
the new standard means it is no longer possible to build a system using
components from third party suppliers.
EN 54 Part 24 covers the minimum requirements for loudspeakers and the
method for testing their operational performance. Acoustic requirements
for loudspeakers vary according to the nature of the space where they are
installed, so many projects may involve at least one application where there
is a need to employ specialist design support.
Honeywell Gent will provide FREE advice on Fire Detection and Voice
Alarm system design recognising the responsibilities imposed on the
Designer. This is available through our Network of Approved System
Integrators. The service our Sales Support Team can offer is:
• Fire detection design & application advice
• Voice alarm design
• Acoustic design & modelling using the Ulysses tool
• Central battery & static inverter design, sales support & commissioning
• Aspirating design & application support
• Factory acceptance testing
• Site survey & application support
• Site training
Loudspeakers
Honeywell Gent’s range of Voice Alarm Loudspeakers is a key element of
the complete Voice Solution. Certified to EN 54 Part 24 you can be sure
to meet the demands of any system and comply with the design
requirements of BS 5839 Part 8.
