Announcing new connected future ready Masterpact MTZ
New industry first with embedded Class 1 metering, saving time and energy
Unprecedented customer benefits of safety, reliability, efficiency, sustainability and secure connectivity
Native integration into company's EcoStruxure architecture
Company builds on three decades of air circuit breaker (ACB) industry leadership, combining performance and reliability with new digital capabilities
As the global specialist in energy management and automation, Schneider Electric has been the benchmark for air circuit breakers (ACB) in electrical distribution for three decades - first with the Masterpact M, followed by the Masterpact NT/NW. The company announced the introduction of the Masterpact MTZ, the next generation of high power low-voltage circuit breakers, combining the company's legendary performance and reliability with new digital capabilities.
Addressing changing customer pain points
Key customer benefits of the Masterpact MTZ include:
A new industry first with embedded Class 1 metering, saving project time and energy usage
Improved mechanical and electrical performance, even in harsh environments
Ability to monitor and control circuit breaker safely with a smart phone as main human machine interface (HMI), even in power outage
Stay notified of any event and prevent overloads through real-time remote monitoring capabilities
Ability to customise circuit breaker with digital modules for ultra flexibility and operational efficiency without downtime
Integrate Masterpact seamlessly in smart panels thanks to the embedded ethernet connection
Same footprint allowing easier upgrades and replacements without any need for re-certification
We are redefining power distribution in this new world of energy we live in today and our future ready Masterpact MTZ is a great proof point of this, said Philippe Delorme, executive vice president, building & IT business, Schneider Electric. Customers expect power distribution to be safer, more reliable, efficient, sustainable and securely connected. The new Masterpact's connectivity, digital capabilities and ability to be seamlessly integrated into our EcoStruxure architecture will deliver significant benefits for end users, specifiers, panelbuilders and contractors requiring high power breakers as part of low-voltage solutions for industrial sites, critical applications and buildings.
More performance
Masterpact MTZ is the first air circuit breaker to embed accurate Class1 power meter, compliant and certified with IEC 61557-12. Energy efficiency is achieved thanks to accurate energy usage analysis, optimisation, cost allocation and assessment of energy usage trends. Energy management is compliant with international regulations ISO 50001 and IEC 60364-8.
Easier upgrades
Building on its strengths, the Masterpact MTZ will offer the same ratings, the same tripping performance and the same footprint for seamless, quick integration and retrofitting in switchboards as the current Masterpact range. This seamless transition from Masterpact NT/NW to Masterpact MTZ means no switchboard redesign required and no need to run switchboard recertification tests as per IEC 61439-2. In addition, the product offers easy integration in Smart Panels and connection to management systems with native embedded Ethernet connection.
More reliability
Masterpact MTZ protects equipment and activity against cable overloads, short circuits and insulation faults. It offers outstanding power uptime demanded by low voltage electrical distribution networks, even in the harshest environments. Masterpact MTZ also offers excellent mechanical and electrical performance, going beyond standards and withstanding the highest levels in voltage fluctuations, electromagnetic disturbances, vibrations, shocks, corrosive and chemical ambience and severe temperatures.
More flexibility
Customising Masterpact MTZ with digital modules can also be achieved anytime, anywhere. Various advanced function options are available with digital modules for protection, measurement, diagnostics and maintenance. The Masterpact MTZ is scalable at any stage of the life cycle from design and configuration to commissioning (for last-minute changes) and operation upgrades, without power interruption or protection shutdowns.
More safety
Achieving safe and efficient day-to-day facility management is easier through connectivity to smart phones and operations and analytic software. The interactive smart HMI reduces safety risk for local maintenance as no direct contact is required for quick analysis and action through a secure bluetooth connection. Quick view, self-diagnosis of protection setting and modification, energy consumption, power quality, phase balance, and health status are all available real time. In addition, for remote notifications, the Facility Hero digital maintenance and collaborative logbook allows proactive maintenance and ensures secure continuity of operation, periodic inspection, warnings and alarms.
More uptime
In case of power outage, customers can minimise downtime and restore power quickly and safely using their smart phone. Key data is saved before tripping (measures, protection settings) and even without power, thanks to an NFC connection that gives a root cause explanation and step-by-step breaker reclosing and power recovery instructions.
Future ready, more connected and digital
Masterpact MTZ is future ready as it seamlessly integrates within the Smart Panels architecture, and can be remotely monitored and controlled with any supervision system to carry out predictive and preventive maintenance and asset and energy management, thanks to its embedded ethernet connection.
Providing a digital user experience throughout its lifecycle, Masterpact MTZ also offers unprecedented connectivity. This includes:
