Wherever energy flows – Operation, telecontrol, and automation in the smallest spaces
The SICAM A8000 series is a new modular device range for telecontrol and automation applications in all areas of energy supply. This device series was developed to fulfil the requirements of a broad field of applications. The most important features are:
Suitable for rough ambient conditions thanks to mechanically stable modules and an extended temperature range from -40 to +70 °C.
High voltage strength up to 5kV (IEC 60255) for use directly in substations.
Fulfills tomorrow’s cyber security requirements with BDEW White Paper conformity, integrated crypto chip and IPSec encryption.Integrated communications interfaces incl. GPRS “on board”.
Automation functions (IEC 61131-3), e.g. for controlling a regulated distribution transformer or for load control.Space-saving design with a module width of 30mm (without display for CP)Scalable by combining individual I/O modules.
Long product life cycle and high investment security by using standards as IEC 61850.
The SICAM A8000 series also offers the 3-stage smart functions:Monitoring:
The first stage focuses on the monitoring of stations to enable rapid fault localization and high availability.
Telecontrol: The second stage involves switchgear telecontrol in addition to monitoring, thus minimizing downtime. Thanks to this application, fault isolation and power supply restoration of de-energized network sections are no longer difficult tasks for power supply utilities.
Load flow control: In the third stage, the effects of decentralized power feed-ins are managed via automation. Network losses can be significantly reduced this way.
