SANTA ANA, Calif. – April 2, 2007 – ITT’s VEAM NRG sequential mating system in a 19in rack format guarantees the correct mating and unmating sequence for a set of the company’s Powerlock power distribution connectors. The ‘foolproof’ nature of the NRG system makes it especially suitable for applications such as special events, exhibitions and energy generation. Patented cam covers on each of the panel connector ensure that the proper sequence of Ground, Neutral, Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3 is adhered to. Once connected, the system can be secured by a keylock, ensuring that the system cannot be accessed by unauthorized persons.
As an additional security measure, the keylock can be hooked up via a microswitch to a circuit breaker. If the keylock is disabled, the circuit breaker will trip, isolating the NRG unit from the mains, thus preventing disconnection while under load. A primary keylock can also be employed to prevent unauthorized connection to the power cables.Rated at either 400 or 600A, the NRG unit is available either as a Panel Source or Panel Drain unit. Both configurations meet IP65 when mated.
The system is compatible with all VEAM Powerlock connectors, and color-coded versions covering Europe, the USA and Australia are available.
