Power Solutions for Industry

Siemens offers you a wide-ranging portfolio of solutions and can answer your questions such as how to dimension a network to handle the expected tasks, what resources are suitable, and what interfaces have to be provided. You can rely on our extensive system know-how to determine the suitability of the products and systems in your plant so that you do not encounter any unexpected failures.

We can also carry out the complete network calculations such as short-circuit or load flow calculations and dimension the protection parameters. This ensures selective shut-down wherever a fault is located in a complex plant, allowing the failure to be confined to the affected area of the plant during ongoing operations.

Our specialists extend, replace or modernize your medium-voltage and low-voltage switchgear to adapt your energy distribution to meet growing requirements. The products and systems we use are not just very easy to operate and safe, we also integrate them seamlessly into the overall concept consisting of the existing and the new systems.

Our services also include construction and commissioning in addition to engineering and layout planning.

Customized adaptation of protective features, maximum availability, maximum safety for personnel and trouble-free integration into the existing control system are all among the benefits offered by Siemens with regard to protection systems. You can rely on our experience in designing your systems to protect people and equipment and on the proven quality of our products.

Automated functions can help you to avoid expensive consumption situations and also increase availability. Fast load shedding helps to protect your sensitive processes against power failure. If faults occur in the energy supply, plant sections are switched off according to set priorities within a fraction of a second, so that the energy can be provided wherever it is required most urgently.

Siemens can integrate emergency generating sets into your network. We can also adapt the network parameters so that an uninterruptible power supply is ensured for the most important loads.

You benefit from minimized downtimes of your consumers thanks to the UPS and have the option of scheduled shutdowns for certain production processes.

Siemens can answer your questions related to dimensioning, further extensions, of your cable-/ busbar system in detail, find the most efficient solution and implement a power distribution system optimized for safety and economy.

Improve the way your capital is invested. Our specialists analyze your network, discover any weak points, for example by performing on-site measurements, and develop specific proposals together with you to optimize the network.

You therefore benefit from improvements in the power supply quality which become evident in terms of increased network availability and voltage quality.

Siemens can replace or renew your existing distribution and power transformers and provide extensive installation and commissioning services for new or overhauled transformers as well as dismantling and relocating existing transformers.

The results enable you to integrate the overhauled or new transformers into your network, helping you to reduce downtimes and boost network availability.

Based on a wide range of integral functions, you can find answers to your questions from the archived energy data.For example:

• How is energy consumption distributed in terms of cost centers, time periods, batches, or specific product quantities?

• How high are the assigned energy costs?

• How can energy efficiency be increased?

Our power automation solutions make sure that your distribution of power and the associated energy costs becomes more transparent. This data, together with other information, can be easily visualized in informative reports so that you can detect potential for increasing efficiency more easily.

Siemens can analyze your network and size the compensation systems according to your requirements as well as constructing and commissioning them.

You benefit from active and passive compensation: fewer harmonics in your network result in increased operational safety, compensated reactive power eases the burden on your plants, reduces investment costs and cuts your energy requirements in the long term.

Protect your personnel and plants with a correctly dimensioned grounding system and comprehensive lightning protection. We are on hand with help and advice for newly constructed systems or network expansions and can check existing grounding and lightning protection systems, calculate the required extensions, and carry out the necessary work.

Medium-voltage and low-voltage equipment requires maintenance and servicing at regular intervals.

Make use of Siemens’ extensive competence and in-depth experience in the maintenance and service of such systems.
