ADVC Controller Range

Advancing Your Network


ADVC Controller Range
Offering:
Superior Reliability & Performance Configurable User Interfaces Advanced Protection Features Enhanced Communications Analytical tools

Features
Advancing your electricity distribution network is easily accomplished with the host of ergonomic, physical, protection, analytical and communications features. Designed around the user, the ADVC Controller Range provides reliable and advanced protection relays/controllers for overhead network applications.

All-In-One CAPE
An IP65 rated CAPE (Control And Protection Enclosure) made from die-cast aluminium, incorporates all the control, protection, communication and power supply functions into one reliable unit.

Customer Expansion Capabilities


Expand your ADVC Solution into a fully integrated SCADA solution by adding modems, radios, I/O expanders and other customer accessories to the detachable accessory trays. The sturdy cast-aluminium tray can be moved from its mounting to the front of the cubicle making commissioning and installation easier. Once all the accessories are positioned, simply move the tray back into place. The COMPACT Cubicle has one customer tray. If you require more space, the ULTRA Cubicle provides an extra accessories tray mounted above the CAPE.

Ensuring Reliability
Allowing natural airflow, the ventilated cubicles are made from hard wearing 304 or 316 Stainless Steel. This, combined with constant system health monitoring and IP65 rated electronics enclosure, ensure excellent reliability.

Extra Power
Auxiliary power, including an optional courtesy outlet, is easily accessed with a power supply unit at the base of the cubicle. Transformers, breakers and terminals are available for auxiliary power connection, and all wiring is protected by a safe IP20rated removable cover. A silicone rain-shield also covers the miniature circuit breakers.

Battery Backup
Up to 44 hours* battery hold up time without power. 2 12V lead-acid batteries (at base of cubicle) provide up to 5 years trouble free operation. Both controllers offer 7Ah batteries, and the ULTRA also offers optional 12Ah batteries for longer hold up, and heater, for operation to -40C.
