A new modular switchgear system typeMCS that includes complete solutions fordistribution, control and automation inindustry, power plants, buildings and offshoreapplications all over the world. The ModularCabinet System offers new versatilepossibilities to manufacture switchgearto the specific needs of the customer.

Long experience of ABB companies as aswitchgear and panelboard manufacturerhas been used during product developmentof this flexible system.

Special attention has been paid to maintenance, safety,protection and installation. New constructional solutionshave resulted in greater space savings and future expansionof the system is now easier than ever.

Safety and environmental aspects as well as the productlife cycle are essential to the product development, in whichABB has a close cooperation with customers.

As one of the biggest manufacturers of LV apparatus andswitchgear ABB has been developing the EU legislationfor electrical standards with the aim to maintain a highdegree of product safety. The safety provided by theswitchgear construction signifies reliable operation andan overall economic price-quality ratio.

As to the environment and energysavings, concrete results are achieved bythe environmental management systemaccording to ISO 14001, which coversthe whole life cycle of the Modular CabinetSystem including certified maintenance.

IndustryIndustryThe Modular Cabinet System has been developed following environmentally friendly principles.All parts are recyclable. Optimized use of materials is a part of sustainable development notcompromising high and proven performance characteristics.

With the exception of the heaviest switchgear needs the MCS-system covers mostcountry-specific requirements of all branches of industry.

MCS offers comprehensive solutions for demandingoperational conditions in process industry.

The Modular Cabinet System comprisesfused and non-fused motor starter applications.ABB’s high-quality components usedfor motor starters ensure areliable operation in allenvironmental conditions.Tested standard applicationscomprise optimal and compactmotor starters - centralized,unit or cabinet type.

9

Light control boards, MCCs, terminal and apparatus boxes forindustry and power plants are included in the MCS-program.

During the product development of MCCs special attention has been paidto the mounting of external cables.

MCS-board can be equipped either with separate cable compartments or external cablescan be connected in the apparatus cubicle consisting of a separate cabling space.
