INSUM - Easy Planning, Start-up and Retrofit


The INSUM system design is geared towards ease of use in all phases of planning, start-up and continuous operation of your installation.

Easy Planning and Startup

  • Intelligent switchgear engineering tool, INSUM OS enables last minute starter modifications
  • System design standards document application knowledge and ensure fit-for-use solutions
  • Communications configuration and analysis tools shorten testing time "Plug and Produce"
  • Integration of protection and I/O into one field device reduces required hardware
Switchboard / MCC overview - the electrical engineer's view of the equipment.
  • Remote configuration with INSUM OS from the engineering office or at the substation - accelerates startup



Simplified Retrofit

  • I/O bundling for reduced efforts in planning and startup
  • Standardized fieldbus technology for reduced wiring
  • Plant wide remote configuration leads to fast, convenient and error-prove system setup and reduces MTTR
  • Modular, flexible and configurable protection matches even changing plant requirements
Withdrawable module with INSUM Motor Control Unit. Standard modules for interchangeability.

Hard Facts
5 to 10% of all motors burn up during plant start-up due to insufficient thermal protection. This unbudgeted cost typically goes unnoticed. Utilizing INSUM one customer reduced this loss to Zero.

15 to 20 % of motor sizes change in the last minute. This typically causes significant changes in the electrical system design. With INSUM a modification in device settings covers most customer change requests.
