AC/DC-optimised busbar system offers safety & reliability
Efficient drive systems, idle power loss reductions and the renewable energy sector all require safe, reliable DC solutions which, whilst they cannot replace AC applications across the board, are growing in importance. Addressing this need, Rittal has announced that it is to offer an approved standalone busbar system with standard components, optimised for both AC and DC applications.
DC busbar systems are increasingly deployed in converter buses, DC power backup systems, photovoltaics, galvanics, energy storage systems and shipbuilding.
The RiLine system has a current carrying capacity of up to 1600A, a nominal voltage of up to 1500VDC and a short-circuit rating of up to 40kA. Rittal’s RiLine is approved to IEC 61439 and UL 845 in conjunction with UL 508, making it suitable for a wide range of industries.
Depending on requirements, busbar systems can be made of copper, aluminium or cuponal, copper-clad aluminium. RiLine’s assembly parts, such as connection adapters up to 800A, OM component adaptors with tension spring clamps and CB Series compact circuit breaker adaptors up to 250A, are suitable for DC applications.
Size 00-3 NH bus-mounting fuse bases up to 630A and size 00 NH slimline fuse-switch disconnectors up to 160A, with corresponding DC fuses, can be deployed.
