RS Breakers & Controls: MCC Buckets and Motor Controls

November 17, 2020

RS Breakers & Controls have a massive inventory of current and vintage MCC Buckets, also referred to as wrapper buckets or wrapper units. Whether you’re looking to upgrade, retrofit, like-for-like swap, or buy new, RS can provide you the solution for all your needs.

Extend the functionality and performance of your MCC buckets by upgrading with a selection of soft starts, variable frequency drives and smart motor control systems. RS can also upgrade the protective devices with new circuit breakers, fusible switches and motor circuit protectors.

Don’t know what you’re working with? Simply send RS pictures of the operating system and the name plate, then they can begin to identify it for you. As an added bonus, all products are tested to ANSI & CSA standards and include detailed testing reports.

Auto-Idle – PS61 Series Pressure Switch from Gems Sensors & Controls

 

As emissions regulations continue to get stricter, OEMS are looking for ways to meet or beat the specifications to ensure that their equipment is in compliance. One of the largest adders to emissions is idling gas/diesel-powered equipment. As an operator is using a machine, they will increase the idle RPM so that there is plenty of power on the PTO (Power Take Off). Having this extra power allows the machinery to operate efficiently and without strain.
