Power Operators, Actuators

AEM Power operators are used to drive AEM DB transmission disconnectors and earth switches

The PD series is a range of general purpose power operators used for applications up to 145kV

The PDHO series is a high power, lower speed range used for EHV disconnectors above 145kV

 

AEM Power operators are designed for connection to secure substation DC supplies. Separate control and motor power circuits allow the use of AC motor power if substation control power supplies are limited.

Specifications 

Control Supply Voltages: 32VDC; 48VDC; 110VDC; 250VDC
Motor Supply Voltages: 32VDC; 48VDC; 110VDC; 250VDC; 240VAC
Anti Condensation Heater Supply: 240VAC

 

Safety is a primary consideration.Motor_Operator

  • Robust mechanical and electrical interlocking is provided to ensure operator and network safety
    (Site electrical connections must be correctly wired to customer controls and earth auxilliary switches in accordance with AEM installation documents)
  • A Manual override handle is provided to allow operation during maintenance or control power failure. Insertion of the override handle automatically disconnects control power, disabling remote operation.
  • Supply failure indicator contacts
  • Padlockable enclosure door

Performance is built in to every AEM disconnector

  • Remote position indication for substation interlocking and SCADA monitoring. Up to 16 poles of angular position adjustable potential free contacts can be provided.
  • Reliable, repeatable and consistent opening and closing of disconnectors and earth switches
  • Four modes of operation are possible from an internal selector switch:

                  Off (Isolated)
                  Local - enables spring return internal Open/Close switch. This will complete one open or close cycle
                  Remote automatic
                  Intermittent - "Inching" operation. Motor runs only when the internal spring return switch is held open or closed

    • Removable aluminium gland plate for easy and quick site cable installtion

      Reliability is essential for long life and trouble free operation

      • Weatherproof IP67 stainless steel enclosure
      • Anti condensation heater to keep interior above dewpoint temperature
      • Heavy duty, sealed maintenance free motor, gearbox and bearings
      • Comprehensive installation, operation and maintenance manuals plus drawings are provided (Also downloadable)
