Tmax T7 PV-E (1500 VDC) – is the first low voltage switch to adopt a hybrid
technology to realize the quenching of the electric arc generated while breaking
currents.
Innovation mindset
- The new switch has been named T7D PV-E, and the denomination openly
refers to Solar PV (Photovoltaic) , the market segment where this innovative
product will find most of its applications.
- In order to grant a reliable breaking in every situation, a hybrid solution has
been defined and engineered. Hybrid is the most appropriate term to define
this technology, since it combines the traditional mechanical provision with
the latest resources of the modern Power Electronics.
- Thanks to this technology advancement, Tmax range now reaches the 1.5
kV voltage limit for Low Voltage switching equipment in DC in the smallest
size
- “The spirit that lead us in developing the first hybrid moulded-case switch
was our continuous innovation mindset: Power Electronics advancements at
the service of our compact Tmax T7” said Lucio Azzola, Breakers&Switches
Business Unit R&D Manager.

Market segments

Critical Power
Segment Overview
 Critical applications, such as hospitals, airports,
communications systems and data centers, require a
constant and reliable power supply to keep fundamental
services running and prevent serious consequences due to
power interruption.
 In order to ensure end to end reliability, the system must
include diesel, gas tubine generators and static, rotary
UPS which ensure the power supply to the critical loads in
case of outages from the grid.
 ABB can offer OEMs specialized in “Critical power”
applications a complete range of products, from
components for on board installation to power distribution
systems, which provide reliability, safety and energy
efficiency

Critical Power

Solar Power
Segment Overview
 Solar power is the conversion of sunlight into electricity.
Sunlight can be converted directly into electricity using
photovoltaics (PV), or indirectly with concentrating solar
power (CSP), which normally focuses the sun's energy to
boil water.
 Photovoltaics were initially used to power small and
medium-sized applications, from the calculator powered
by a single solar cell to off-grid homes powered by a
photovoltaic array.
 Developing countries have started to build solar power
plants, replacing other sources of energy generation.
 Since solar radiation is intermittent, solar power generation
is usually combined either with storage or other energy
sources to provide continuous power, although for small
distributed producer/consumers, net metering makes this
transparent to the consumer.

Wind
Segment Overview
 The wind turbine is basically a system that converts the kinetic
energy in the wind, via rotation, into electric energy. The
generated power can be low voltage or medium voltage. Most
common is still today low voltage (690V).
 Wind turbines are composed of various sub-systems such as
electrical drive train, pitch & yaw systems and other auxiliary
circuits which are using various low voltage products. Therefore
almost the complete portfolio of Breakers & Switches, Control
products, Enclosure & DIN-rail products and Control & Wiring
Management is used in Wind power segment! Beside products
& solutions, also a wide part of our service portfolio can be
offered to the Wind industry

Marine
Segment Overview
 Marine is about the Shipbuilding Market.
 A ship is a large vessel designed to move across water for
entertainment, commerce or military missions.
 Local law and regulation define the exact size which
distinguishes a ship from a boat. Ship typically is large ocean-
going vessel. Instead, boat is smaller and travel most often on
inland or coastal waters.
 ABB product range for marine application, in particular the
LPBS portfolio, have received innumerable international
certifications and approval by the major shipping registers
 RINA
 ABS
 Det Norske Veritas
 Bureau Veritas
 Lloyd’s register of shipping
 Germanischer Lloyd

Mining
Segment Overview
 Mining is the extraction of valuable minerals or other
geological materials from the earth, usually (but not
always) from an ore body, vein or (coal) seam.
 The choice of mining method is largely determined by
the geology of the mineral deposit:
 Surface or Open pit mining
 Underground mining
 After extraction, soils or rocks are processed in order
to select the minerals. Refining processes could be
different according to the ore or mineral.

Traction
Segment Overview
 Traction is about the Rail Transport
 Rail Transport is the conveyance of passengers and
goods by means of wheeled vehicles running along
railways. It is capable of high capacity and is energy
efficient, but lacks flexibility and is capital intensive.
 It consists of trains running along a permanent way,
consisting of steel track on ties and ballast.
Alongside is a signaling system and sometimes an
electrification system. The operation is carried out by
a railway company, providing transport between train
stations.
 Traction means:
 Rolling Stock
 Rail Infrastructure (Fixed Stock)
 Rail Control (SCADA or others)
 Service

Nuclear
Segment Overview
 Nuclear is the use of sustained nuclear fission to
generate heat and electricity. In 2012 about 5.7%
of the world's energy and 13% of the world's
electricity was provided by nuclear source.
 Main nuclear facilities are nuclear power plants;
other facilities to be considered are:
 Nuclear fuel manufacturing plants
 Uranium enrichment plants
 Uranium conversion/treatment plants
 Nuclear waste treatment plants
 Spent nuclear fuel storages
 Research reactors
 Installations where fissile material is not able
to generate a nuclear reaction are not
considered nuclear facilities (e.g. medical
field).
