Rittal will be showcasing some of its leading enclosure technologies at Drives and Controls 2016. @rittal_ltd

Visitors to Rittal’s Stand D230 will be able to view its
innovative modular enclosures, power distribution, and
climate control systems, commonly specified as the
No.1 choice for protecting critical equipment. 

Of particular note will be the presence of the new, award-
winning Blue e+ climate control system which was launched
last year to great acclaim thanks to its outstanding energy
savings and flexibility.

There will also be the chance to understand more about
panel building automation, as well as servicing and
maintenance programmes, designed to maximise your
system’s efficiency, flexibility and longevity.

And the company’s popular demonstration bus will be on
Stand D964 giving visitors a “hands on” experience and live
demonstration of Rittal products.

Rittal – The System
The company’s renowned infrastructure system – “Rittal –
The System” – offers five perfectly matched modules:
rack, power, cooling, security and monitoring and remote
management.

Based around Rittal’s TS 8 control cabinet and TS IT rack
system platform, “Rittal – The System” offers modular,
custom-fit solutions, providing maximum rack volumes,
high levels of surface protection, stability and endless
expansion possibilities.

Today, more than 10 million TS 8 bayed enclosure are
deployed across a huge range of industries worldwide.
Critical to its success has been its flexibility and efficiency,
high quality, safety standards, and its global availability.

Also on show will be a selection of Rittal’s top-selling,
cost-effective wall boxes. Compact Enclosures AE provide
highly technical solutions to protect the valuable systems
within.  Their attributes and many benefits include corrosion
resistance and a range of accessories for easy assembly as
well as security and environmentals.

Blue e+
The award-winning Blue e+ climate control system is a major
advance for both the industrial and IT sectors and provides
benefits to all users.  It addresses common problems of
panel builders, systems integrators, original equipment
manufacturers and end users alike.

As well as being far more energy efficient than existing cooling
solutions, the Blue e+ uses state of the art technologies to
deliver greater flexibility, safety and ease of handling.

Key to the efficacy of the Blue e+ is Rittal’s innovative
patented hybrid system which uses a clever combination
of a compressor cooling device and a heat pipe to take
maximum advantage of passive cooling.

As a consequence, energy savings have been up to 75 per
cent better than conventional units – a quantum leap forward
for cooling systems, and a major incentive for manufacturers
seeking to minimise steep rises in energy prices.

Power Distribution
Visitors to Drives and Controls 2016 will also be able to find
out more about Rittal’s popular busbar systems and the
modular Ri4Power power distribution system supported by
latest Power Engineering design software.

The latter provides comprehensive support in planning and
verifying compliance to the IEC 61439-1/-2 switchgear and
controlgear standard.

As with all Rittal’s solutions the power distribution range has
been subject to the most stringent testing, demonstrating
their capability to operate in the toughest and most
demanding environments.

Automation in panel building
The machines and solutions provided by Rittal Automation
systems facilitate the optimisation of the complete work-flow
in Rittal’s panel building manufacture, from machining of the
panel parts and automated wiring of the panels to testing of
the finished panel, supported by a diversity of handling
systems such as the Assemblex.

This expertise is aligned with Rittal’s other subsidiary companies
Eplan (design) and Cideon (technical IT integration).

Sales continue to rise year on year as panel builders take
advantage of the opportunities that automation presents.

System Surveys, Servicing and Maintenance 
Anyone keen to improve the long-term health of their systems
can talk to Rittal’s expert team on the stand.

These discussions might range from possible remedial action
if equipment is regularly tripping or failing, to optimum service
programmes for maintaining systems‘ viability throughout its
working life.
