Rockwell Automation: ArcShield Technology for CENTERLINE 2100 Motor Control Centers

ArcShield

August 16, 2023

To help increase workforce safety and mitigate arc flash damage, Rockwell Automation developed ArcShield technology for CENTERLINE motor control centers (MCCs). And now, this arc flash safety technology has been expanded for Canadian manufacturers with high-amp applications typical in the oil, gas, mining, water treatment and power generation industries.

Workforce fatalities are greatly preventable with arc flash containment solutions like ArcShield technology. CENTERLINE 2100 motor control centers now offer a device limited ArcShield solution for up to 600V and 3000 A current rating. The motor control center is designed to contain an arcing fault for the time it takes the pre-tested main protective device to clear the fault.

The CENTERLINE 2100 motor control center with new 600V device limited 1600…3000 A ArcShield technology meets strict industry safety standards:

  • UL 845/cUL
  • NMX-353-ANCE
  • Type 2 accessibility requirements, defined by IEEE C37.20.7

Manufactured on four continents, CENTERLINE MCCs are designed to meet customers’ critical power, safety, motor control and information needs in markets around the world.
