Heavy Duty Process Industry Power Distribution
Continuousprocess plants & production lines
NATUS delivers factorypreassembled powerdistribution packages for heavyduty continuousprocess industries, including mining, cement, steel & metallurgy, pulpandpaper, and largescale manufacturing production lines. Our scope covers power supply for both productioncritical process lines and plantwide site infrastructure. Deliverables include medium / lowvoltage switchgear, prebuilt electrical integrated containers (EHouse), distribution panels, maintenance panels and local site panels. We integrate qualified thirdparty UPS systems, DC power panels and auxiliary electrical materials under one unified project scope, to cut onsite workload and prevent costly unplanned processline shutdowns.
Industry Challenges
Heavyduty continuousprocess production lines run 24/7. Unplanned power outages trigger huge economic losses caused by process interruption, moltensteel loss, production web breakoffs and equipment damage.
Processsite harsh conditions: high temperature radiant heat, heavy dust, corrosive steam, salt mist and mechanical shock /load fluctuation. Conventional generalpurpose electrical equipment suffers accelerated ageing and frequent faults under such heavyduty conditions.
Sourcing discrete equipment from multiple different vendors leads to complicated crosssupplier interfaces, massive onsite assembly & wiring work, bringing high risks of poor site quality and project schedule delay, especially for remote heavyindustry sites with limited skilled local manpower.
Steelmetallurgy processes feature severe fluctuating heavy loads, which introduce voltage disturbance and harmonic pollution and threaten stable power supply for wholeplant production lines.
Pulpandpaper, cement and chemical process lines demand maintainable power equipment that allows partial servicing without fullline shutdown, to minimise production loss during routine maintenance.
International heavyindustry projects require strict performance verification, FAT, complete compliance documentation. Ownerspecified component brands add extra coordination complexity across suppliers.
NATUS Solution Architecture
NATUS provides integrated heavyduty powerdistribution solutions covering both critical production process lines and plantwide infrastructure. Selfmanufactured ENERGON lowvoltage switchgear supports hotswap functionalunit replacement to realise zerodowntime partial maintenance for 24hour continuousprocess lines. We offer enhanced cabinet designs against high temperature, dust, corrosion and mechanical shock to adapt to heavyindustry site conditions. We supply factoryprewired and fullytested electrical integrated containers (EHouse), together with distribution, maintenance and localsite panels. Qualified thirdparty UPS, DC power panels and auxiliary materials are integrated within one unified delivery scope.
Major assembly, internal wiring and fullscope FAT are completed infactory, minimising onsite labour and quality risks for remote heavyindustry locations. Our engineering team performs scheme customisation for mining, cement, steelmetallurgy and pulpandpaper process requirements, and provides endtoend delivery coordination for international projects.
