With spares for the legacy breakers no longer available, a modernization program was required to ensure the plant could continue its uninterrupted operation in a safe and sustainable manner.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>According to Nordv\u00e6rk electrician, Claus Riis, a long, unplanned outage was out of the question and even a planned retrofit solution would have been problematic. He said: \u201cWe have an important task of producing electricity and district heating for Aalborg, and its critical infrastructure. It&#8217;s hugely expensive to shut down completely when you have a 17 MW electricity and 42 MW district heating plant.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cReplacing the breakers with minimal downtime was of utmost importance so when we were presented with the new possibilities enabled by Direct Replacement, it was actually a pretty easy choice.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>ABB\u2019s DR solution is available for withdrawable Emax and New Emax circuit breakers in situations where minimizing shutdown time is critical. The solution is easy to install and guarantees safe modernization of the old system. The downtime is short as only the mobile part of the old circuit breaker is replaced with a dedicated Emax 2 part.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The new breakers are type-approved with the same configuration as the existing breakers and conversion wiring is included, further simplifying the exchange process so that it can typically be completed in just ten minutes. Furthermore, ABB\u2019s service continuity guarantee ensures uninterrupted operation during the upgrade process, delivering huge savings in both downtime and labor.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Ole Dahl, Electrification Service Sales Engineer at ABB Denmark, believes many businesses are delaying modernizing their breakers due to an outdated assumption that replacement entails the removal of key equipment for extended periods.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>He said: \u201cCircuit breakers play a vital role in preventing over-heating or fire causing catastrophic damage and stoppages but too many businesses where uptime is crucial, such as power plants, hospitals and data centers, are running old install bases to the point of failure.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cModernization projects such as Nordv\u00e6rk prove that legacy breakers can be upgraded with minimal downtime. Spare parts are readily available for the new equipment, which is not only more reliable but also future-proofed with the possibility for advanced monitoring and communication.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp;
