Safety, reliability and optimized maintenance: Sustainable values that go beyond green

IORE63-20-CC Of course, the sustainable value this innovative solution brings to the Frings plant goes far beyond that. Thanks to the SM AirSeT’s integration of smart sensors and network security features, as well as good interconnectivity, Grougroup Renault is able to remotely monitor the operation of the medium voltage switchgear in this circular plant, enabling condition-based equipment maintenance and improving safety, while these interconnectivity digital features also help prevent catastrophic shutdowns.

IORE63-20-CC The benefits of these digital technologies are particularly welcome to the Frings plant’s maintenance staff. “SM AirSeT has two main advantages: First, it uses environmentally friendly technology, which is in line with the circular economy requirements of the plant; Secondly, its interconnectivity helps us monitor our equipment remotely, “says Nicolas Feve, Frings Plant maintenance Manager.” As a maintenance manager, digitization is a very important core, it allows me to remotely manage installation setup, monitor production and predictive maintenance, and learn advanced technologies remotely.”

It can be seen that the application of sustainable solutions with SM AirSeT medium voltage switchgear as the core has brought positive effects of “killing multiple birds with one stone” for the Frings plant. On the one hand, the adoption of AirSeT green innovation technology reduces the carbon footprint and strongly supports the circular economy of the plant; Secondly, the installation, disassembly and recycling of the device are simplified, and the cost efficiency is better. In addition, with the help of digital innovation, operations personnel can remotely monitor the installation management, production, forecasting and maintenance of equipment, as well as provide remote training of advanced technologies for teams; Finally, network security is enhanced by integrating protection into technical solutions.

IORE63-20-CC In today’s wave of sustainable development, more and more enterprises are also facing similar challenges and opportunities as Groupe Renault, that is, how to help enterprises take into account the overall improvement of low-carbon sustainable value, safety and reliability, cost efficiency, operation and maintenance efficiency through reasonable investment. In the face of this challenge, Schneider Electric’s sulfur hexafluoride free AirSeT technology and its medium voltage switchgear undoubtedly provide a viable way forward. In the future, we look forward to such “multi-kill” sustainable solutions, which can bear fruit in more enterprises.
