Remote control is the solution when your circuit breaker is hard to reach or when load prioritization are required after a potential power outage such as emergency services. There are many advantages to using a CBI Remote actuator unit (RAU) in terms of cost saving, not only to remotely reset the circuit breaker in case of an overload which will save travel costs for a technician but also in terms of expensive contactor and MOSFET solutions which also occupies valuable space in your equipment.

Often at times the choice between high quality products and extremely cheap products, sadly falls on the latter in an effort to save in cost wherever possible. This could pose a hazard not only to the equipment itself but also to maintenance personnel or the end-user.
With the CBI RAU, there is no compromise between cost-effectiveness and first class protection as you can be sure that you will get a product that will carry out it’s job if necessary.
This is because of the Hydraulic-magnetic principle which ensures, among a wide range of additional advantages, exact tripping when it matters the most.

For switching on or off a system it is common to use a contactor. A contactor is a somewhat costly product, which creates energy losses and also occupies valuable space while the RAU combines the functions into one product.
With the RAU you get the switching function directly on the circuit breaker which is cheaper and more compact compared to a contactor. It also simplifies the system design. An additional benefit compared to a contactor is that you get the possibility to reset the circuit breaker after a fault which can save expensive travel and man hours.

The most common reason for a circuit breaker to be hard to reach is that it is built-in in an enclosure or machine, rather than being located far away. The RAU is perfect for mounting into small enclosures and can then be operated remotely. A very good example are telecom stations which are often located in hard to reach places with considerable traveling time.
Another example is an industrial dish washing machine where the circuit breaker is mounted inside. It is common that the circuit breaker trips from time to time. So instead of sending a technician to open up and re-set the machine, the RAU can be installed and the re-set button can be located on the front. This will reduce critical down time and minimize expensive service visits.
We also have a customer working with road safety vehicles where you cannot access the circuit breaker while the vehicle is in use. That problem is solved with a 2-meter cable to a push button for the control signal. Just push the button to reset the circuit breaker and the work can be continued.
