How to bring hi-reliability
to your applications?
Energy availability
in harsh environment
Whatever the operating conditions,
Ringmaster ensures energy availability
in the toughest environment.
With its IP54 ingress protection rating,
no specific consideration needs to
be taken to implement Ringmaster,
minimising project costs and
optimising the availability of
your power.
Oil and Gas Buildings Industry
Maintenance free
All MV contacts are housed in an
environment dedicated to maximising
reliability and minimising maintenance
and possible failures.
The envelope consists of two
polyurethane cast modules,
hermetically sealed for life, offering
a totally maintenance free design to
the MV components. Ringmaster is
virtually maintenance free, ensuring
low lifetime costs.

People’s safety, a major commitment
Safety of people by internal arc protection
Because nothing is more important than safety of people,
all of the products in the Ringmaster range are internal
arc rated.
The tests comply with IEC62271-200 and have an internal
arc classification of AF. This means that in the extremely
unlikely event of a fault, no damage or debris will vent to
the front where all operations are carried out. The effects
of internal arc are evacuated towards the top or the side
of the switchboard, ensuring hi-safety.
