Smart custom distributor technology

"Our starting point was the design of Binx Smartility, with the corresponding installation diagrams," says Commercial Technical Officer Tom Smit of PS Netherlands. "We translated those schematics into a customized distribution system, taking into account issues such as short-circuit resistance, ease of connection, a clear layout and the applicable standards. The distribution system complies with NEN1010 and NEN-EN-IEC-61439." Guus Imming, branch manager of PS Netherlands, adds, "Because Binx Smartility is design responsible because of the UAV-GC contract, it's more direct and faster switching."

On-site time savings

The distribution system consists of a sheet steel main distribution system with a 1,000 A power supply, type 2B, and seven sheet steel sub-distribution systems. The main distribution system is 2.5 m wide and 2 m high and is also equipped with home automation, by means of KNX components. The distribution system was delivered in sections and assembled and tested on site. Smit: "We always design and realize our distribution systems in close consultation with the client. As part of that, we always schedule a factory visit. In our workshop, our engineer and that of Binx Smartility coordinated a number of technical issues. Among other things, this led to a smart solution to simplify the connection of cables. That saved a lot of time on-site." Imming: "The cooperation with Binx Smartility was, as always, very pleasant. We look back on the project with complete satisfaction."
