Arc-Resistant JK

The Arc-Resistant JK (AR-JK) Motor Control Center is designed to increase safety, reliability, and uptime. Arc faults result from electric current traveling through the air between conducting metals due to factors like accidental contact, improper work procedures, or inadequate maintenance. These faults release dangerous energy levels, causing extreme heat, light, noise, and toxic fumes, which can lead to serious injuries, unplanned downtime, and costly replacements.  Utilizing advanced technology, high-quality materials, and structural design, the AR-JK effectively mitigates the risks and costs associated with an arc fault by containing and diverting arc-related explosions.

Overview

Type 2B Accessibility

Offers increased protection around the entire perimeter of the AR-JK, including instances when the low voltage compartment is open and under maintenance.

 

Insulated Main Bus

Insulated main bus prevents inadvertent contact with bus bars and isolates them to limit the spread of an arc blast.

 

Modular, Pre-Assembled Exhaust Plenum

Exhaust plenum channels fire, smoke, and debris from an arc fault out and away from personnel around the perimeter of the AR-JK MCC. The modular design enables the plenum to be installed facing the left, right or back depending on user requirements.

 

Advanced Pressure Relief System

Designed to redirect arc blasts safely, an internal venting system and ventilation flaps are utilized to manage internal pressure.

 

Reinforced Structural Design

Reinforced doors, sides and end covers increase the AR-JK’s ability to safely withstand an arc fault explosion.

 

Bolted Pressure Isolation Switch

Designed with a mechanical interlock between the contactor and the isolation switch prevents opening or closing of the isolation switch unless the main contactor is opened.

Insulated Bearings

  • An electric motor operating on an adjustable speed drive is at risk for premature bearing failure caused by stray currents. Experience indicates using insulated bearings on both ends of the motors is the most effective way to protect the motor from destructive currents. A high level of bearing protection is especially beneficial in applications where motor maintenance and replacement are difficult.
  • Extended Horsepower Capability

  • Extended horsepower capability allows a smaller motor to run at a higher horsepower than its baseline depending on the application requirements. This provides motor users potential cost savings while achieving the same motor performance.
  • Insulation with Wide Thermal Capability

  • Critical cooling motors utilize many Class H insulation materials in its winding designs, which provides increased thermal protection. These motors operate with a very low temperature rise at rated conditions, giving them a wide thermal margin and extended motor life.
  • Low Vibration

  • A vibration level exceeding NEMA MG1 requirements provides stability and durability by prolonging motor and bearing life and helping to reduce downtime.
