Heavy industry sectors such as iron and steel, cement, petrochemicals, and mining are facilities where electrical and mechanical stress are experienced most intensely, and the level of operational difficulty is at its highest. The energy distribution networks that form the heart of the system in these facilities must operate 24/7 without interruption and under maximum load. In such aggressive operating environments, an instantaneous short circuit or internal arc explosion that may occur in the grid can lead not only to millions of liras in production losses (downtime) but also to irreparable occupational accidents. In order not to leave the safety of the facility and human life to chance, type-tested panel manufacturing processes certified by international standards have become an indispensable rule of modern engineering. As Şalt Otomasyon, we bring the high security and durability standards required by heavy industry to your facilities.
Ordinary and conventional electrical panel manufacturing remains insufficient to meet the dynamic thermal and mechanical loads imposed by heavy industry. Type-tested panels subject to IEC 61439-1 and IEC 61439-2 standards, on the other hand, undergo rigorous verification tests by independent and accredited laboratories from the design stage to the final point of assembly. These tests strictly guarantee the mechanical resistance of the panel against short-circuit currents, the overheating limits of busbar systems, insulation distances, and protection classes (IP/IK). Therefore, when you choose type-tested panel manufacturing in your project, you know that the system will maintain its circuit breaker tripping characteristics even in the most critical moments and prevent a potential fault from spreading outside the enclosure.
Among the systems that provide the most perfect global response to these uncompromising expectations of heavy industry are Siemens Sivacon S8 panels. The Sivacon S8 series transforms the main backbone of your facility into an unshakable fortress with its nominal current carrying capacity of up to 7000 amperes and short-circuit withstand capability of up to 150 kA. The patented modular design and superior internal arc resistance of the panel prevent personnel from being harmed in the event of a potential electrical explosion while ensuring that the fault remains confined only to the relevant compartment. In this way, the entire facility is not left without energy, and the damaged module is quickly repaired to resume production. Offering high engineering flexibility, Siemens Sivacon S8 panels allow us to produce the most suitable solution for your process with fixed-mounted, semi-withdrawable, or fully withdrawable configuration options.
Reflecting such high-level technology into the field requires a meticulous engineering infrastructure and competence certification. Positioned as a reliable and approved low voltage panel partner in the sector, Şalt Otomasyon combines Siemens quality with local contracting power. From the very beginning of your project, we perform electrical calculations flawlessly and carry out electrical panel manufacturing with original switchgear equipment and approved assembly procedures. We are always by your side with our expert engineering vision to safely carry your facility to future industrial standards, reduce downtimes to zero, and maintain your operational efficiency.
