How to Optimize Climate Control Systems On the Road Toward Energy Efficiency

 

With state-of-the-art climate control solutions like our Blue e, Blue e+, Blue e+ S, roof mounted and wall mounted TopTherm cooling units, and IoT Interface, manufacturers and their automation partners can engineer targeted cooling outputs where cooling is needed most with an eye toward reducing energy costs, decreasing your carbon footprint, and benefiting from a long lifespan of your electronics and enclosures.

Our Blue e+ chillers do not utilize the high GWP (global warming potential) refrigerants that are prohibited by UL 60335-2-40 — in fact, they don’t use flammable refrigerants at all. And with the ability to reduce energy costs by up to 75%, the Blue e+ provides automotive manufacturers with the utmost in regulatory compliance and reduction in energy usage. The Blue e+ S uses refrigerant R-513A and has a 56% lower Global Warming Potential (GWP) rating helping companies to minimize their carbon footprint by reducing CO2 emissions.

 

How to Engineer Energy-Efficient Automation Webinar

 

Climate control systems as part of industrial automation systems can be a complex web. What’s more, it’s difficult to fully realize just how much energy is consumed and greenhouse emissions emitted every day for companies operating multiple facilities on a nationwide scale. However, the good news is it’s possible to design and build industrial automation systems and power distribution solutions that reduce overall energy consumption, cut carbon emissions, and lower energy costs.

 

With Rittal, not only is this possible, but it’s just a click away with this on-demand webinar.

 

How Busbar Power Distribution Helps Optimize Control Panel Production

 

As automotive manufacturing evolves, there is a need for a smarter, more efficient method of distributing power to the industrial automation controls that help drive production processes. Legacy power distribution systems come with a variety of liabilities and challenges automotive manufacturers and their automation partners must overcome, including complex and time-consuming installations; time and resource-intensive maintenance; less physical space within the enclosure due to cumbersome, outdated designs; and increased downtime due to frequency of maintenance.

Incorporating a Rittal busbar power distribution system allows for:

Reductions in the use of space relative to the panel and enclosure

Easy troubleshooting in the event of control panel manufacturing interruption or failure

Time savings during installation, maintenance, or upgrades

Increased operational efficiency

 

 

How to Source Fast, Accurate Control Panel Modification

 

For automotive manufacturers and their automation partners, relying on a complex, global supply chain for control panel manufacturing and modification is not only expensive, but labor shortages, material shortages, and shipping delays add unnecessary complexity to the enclosure modification process. Additionally, the high degrees of customization and repeatability automotive manufacturers require with their industrial enclosure modifications leaves the door open for prolonged lead times.

 

Automated modification solutions remove the potential for errors while also allowing for more precise and complex modification work without the need for a large labor force. Faster, more efficient modification services result in reduced turnaround time and cost reduction, which further simplifies your value chain and helps ensure production programs are not tethered to the fluctuations of a large, global supply chain.
