Client case: Productivity and continuity of process plant operations

تحدي المشروع

Micro interruptions (glitches) in the utility supply had been causing power disturbances at the facility, leading to loss of productivity and, consequently, loss of revenue. Hence, there was a strong need to mitigate these power quality issues. The supply interruptions, generally up to 2 seconds, were the most common cause of problems at the facility. The client desperately needed a solution and contacted several vendors, including HITEC Power Protection.

The other vendors were product oriented – simply offering their off-the-shelf products and leaving the rest to the client. However, the client wanted a solution-based approach. HITEC Power Protection and its local authorized partner ATME performed a thorough analysis of the problem. Based on this, HITEC and ATME were able to design and propose a complete and optimized solution, tailored to the needs of the client.

The analysis highlighted that power conditioning capability was more important than long-term power backup. Technically, it was established that the solution could be built around a HITEC PowerKEM ride through system, without the need for a diesel engine. In close cooperation with the client, a complete solution was designed that involved the installation of a new transformer, medium voltage switchgear, and the addition of new low voltage feeder switches.

Some of the existing panels had to be repositioned to prepare the site for the installation of the control panels for the PowerKEM ride through (1000 kVA). Because of space limitation and the audible noise from the PowerKEM unit, it was established that the PowerKEM would be best placed outside the existing building. For that purpose the PowerKEM was provided within its own sound-attenuating enclosure. All of this was provided as part of HITEC and ATME’s complete solution

When HITEC and ATME stepped in, the client found a partner it could work with to analyze the problem and design a complete solution. in addition, HITEC and ATME were also able to assume the responsibility for the turnkey delivery of the solution.
