Ensuring Reliability
Allowing natural airflow, the ventilated
cubicles are made from hard wearing
304 or 316 Stainless Steel. This,
combined with constant system health
monitoring and IP65 rated electronics
enclosure, ensure excellent reliability.
All-In-One CAPE
An IP65 rated CAPE (Control And Protection
Enclosure) made from die-cast aluminium,
incorporates all the control, protection,
communication and power supply functions into
one reliable unit.
Communications Ports
Standard DB9, RJ45 and RJ11 terminations
are easily accessible. There is no need for
complicated customised communication cables,
making installation and commissioning simple.
Customised User Interfaces
Mounted on the CAPE, you can choose the best
Operator Interface for your needs:
„ Menu driven setVUE interface, or
„ Fully configurable flexVUE interface.
setVUE Interface
Set your configuration with a menu-driven
interface with a large 4 × 40 character LCD
display. Four configurable Quick Keys, simple
menu navigation & Trip/Close buttons allow user
switchgear control.
flexVUE Interface (pictured right)
A flexible interface, with 20 configurable status
lamps and 12 configurable Quick Action Keys,
allows you to check your switchgear’s status
instantly.
Additional information and Operator Menus are
displayed on the 2 × 20 character LCD, and
Trip/Close buttons allow user switchgear control.
