The new service, announced at the Hannover Messe, is based on similar schemes that Schneider already offers for managing LV and MV electrical assets such as transformers, switchgear and circuit breakers, as well as three-phase UPS (uninterruptible power supplies) up to 40kVA.
The plan provides dynamic schedules for maintaining VSDs, combined with preventive visits. By monitoring the VSDs 24/7, potential issues can be detected, allowing users to reduce unscheduled and unnecessary downtime, extending asset lives, optimise operations, and improve safety for operators and equipment.
Experts monitor the health of the connected VSDS remotely and offer recommendations for optimising their performance with customised quarterly reports and annual consultations. They will also will notify customers if they identify potential issues, suggesting corrective actions that can be implemented on-line or on-site.
