CONNECTION SOLUTIONS
INNOVATIVE SOLUTION FOR CONNECTING CRITICAL ELECTRIC COMPONENTS: TRANSFORMERS, SWITCHBOARDS, GENERATORS AND UPS, FOR APPLICATIONS FROM 500A TO 6300A... Positioned for dynamic growth in the low voltage electrical space
R FE & Partners nVent ERIFLEX Introduces The FleXbus System, an innovative and patented connection solution between two pieces of electrical equipment. nVent is a leading global provider of electrical connection and protection solutions. ERIFLEX FleXbus is designed to increase efficiency and safety in electrical installation, offering savings on the overall installation time and total installation cost. The easy-to-install, flexible power connection solution facilitates applications ranging from 500A to 6300A and is designed as an alternative to using multiple heavy busbar conductors or traditional cables. A low-voltage, flexible power connection system, ERIFLEX FleXbus can be used for multiple applications including interconnections within transformers and switchgears and connections between the two. It can be installed in tight locations or where more demanding tolerances are needed. Paired with nVent ERIFLEX Advanced Technology, it enhances safety for individuals and infrastructure while reducing environmental impact. High temperature resistance conductor connections up to 115°C, coupled with low smoke, halogen-free and flame- retardant properties reduce potential for toxic smoke or the spread of fire. IEC-certified worldwide, ERIFLEX FleXbus is a safe solution offering quick and easy installation without any need for specialist installers or expensive tools. Matt Flemming, nVent ERIFLEX General Manager and Vice President, said, “In the midst of electrification of everything, e-mobility and energy storage, we are excited to bring the nVent ERIFLEX FleXbus solution to the market. “This unique solution solves challenges for connecting transformers, switchboards, generators and large uninterrupted power supplies by enabling safe, easy and convenient late stage modification, and continues our
promise to develop products that enable more efficient installation while reducing total project costs. “This product will deliver significant value for our customers and positions us well for dynamic growth in the low voltage electrical space as we watch the increasing need for safe and reliable delivery of electricity in critical applications.” Frédéric Bizet, nVent ERIFLEX Product Manager, said, “The nVent ERIFLEX FleXbus solution allows contractors to save time installing critical low voltage hardware. “This new product line has advantages over competitive solutions that specify cable and lugs or busduct as it is able to be customised on the jobsite and has no bend radius restrictions, saving space. “nVent ERIFLEX FleXbus provides benefits for system planning and engineering as well. Engineers can now plan to use one or two conductors per
phase compared to multiple conductors per phase with alternative solutions and the conductors are coated with nVent ERIFLEX Advanced Technology, meaning users can count on low smoke, halogen free and flame-retardant performance for critical connections between transformers, switchboards, generators or large uninterrupted power supplies. Our initial testing has shown that all of these innovations provide our customers up to 50% quicker installation and 20% reduction in total installed cost.”
