Is low-voltage switchgear has been evolving for over 45 years. With the introduction of NeoGear in 2019 the laminated bus plate technology enables increased values for safer, smarter and more sustainable solutions. NeoGear Digital extends the proven system
platform, with the latest technologies for data analytics and data communication providing switchgear ready for Industry 4.0.
NeoGear Digital changes the way switchgear is monitored,operated, and maintained. By using latest electrical devices for measurement, monitoring and diagnosis in any of the NeoGear platform solutions, NeoGear Digital is seamlessly integrated into the switchgear assembly.
Is Emax 2, XT circuit breaker, motor control and protection devices, softstarter and variable speed drives together with other sensors are connected to the on-site Ability™ Condition Monitoring for electrical systems (CMES). Its data is collected and analyzed online 24/7 without interference with other operation or control.
Process control systems, required for motor control, are connected through standard communication protocols (Profibus and Profinet, Modbus RTU and Modbus TCP). Air circuit breakers support the communication to electrical controls via IEC 61850.
The local CMES, installed as part of the switchgear assembly, allows secure access to data and data analysis on-site to optimize switchgear operation and minimize maintenance costs. NeoGear Digital is ready for cloud connectivity to Ability™ Energy and Asset Manager.Alternatively, through OPC UA offering further connectivityo other systems.
