MODU-AL
This innovative proprietary concept of aluminum profiles eliminates the inaccuracies associated with manufacturing conventional steel panels, while offering superior strength and flexibility. The various shapes of extrusions and molded corners provide a multitude of options, reducing the reliance on fasteners and other accessories while ensuring accurate self-aligning assemblies.
Features and benefits
Aluminum frame: Eliminates Eddy currents in the structure while providing outstanding properties in terms of rigidity, accuracy and continuity of supply.
Aluminum panels and steel: Depending on the application and customer needs, a wide variety of finishes and colors are available.
Flexibility and Strenght: Compared to conventional steel structures, aluminum extrusions not only offer superior strength but also excellent flexibility, making them highly adaptable for special arrangements.
Continuity of masses: The properties of aluminum, in terms of conductivity, provide increased security level of the structure, by directly linking the modules at the point of primary mass allowing equipotentiality across the equipment.
High reliability in & out: Accuracy and anti-corrosive properties of aluminum extrusions can offer a wide range of quality products designed for indoor and outdoor use.
Internal arcs resistant: We offer a wide range of products that have undergone certification testing for resistance to internal arc type 2C, as prescribed by ANSI / IEEE C37.20.7.
Retrofit: The concept is ideal for modernization and replacement. The freestanding structure is easily adaptable to accommodate several types of circuit breakers, disconnectors, and other electrical components.
38 kV – 5000A Capacity: The concept is used for a wide range of products (available from 480 volts to 38 kilovolts). Depending on the needs and applications, different designs are available for current values ​​up to 500A.
Fast Turn Around: The MODU-AL greatly reduces the production time and allows the quickest turn around on the market.
