ETA and Wohner in partnership agreement

ETA and busbar system specialist Wohner have entered into a joint agreement to pool their respective expertise in the design and production of enclosures and electrical power distribution systems

Leading Italian enclosure manufacturer ETA and busbar system specialist Wohner, have entered into a joint agreement to pool their respective expertise in the design and production of enclosures and electrical power distribution systems and can now offer complete enclosure solutions with type - tested universal busbar systems, for a wide range of low voltage industrial automation applications.

The Wohner universal busbar system is believed to significantly reduce costly design, assembly and wiring time whist offering electrical engineers, the flexibility to replace Motor Starter Modules without incurring expensive 'down-time' and by the use of special adaptors, allows the system to be totally re-configured at any time in the future.

The specification of these 'type - tested' enclosures, not only offer panel builders greater time saving, convenience and flexibility, but also potentially huge cost savings by users not having to individually order and stock, a whole range of expensive electrical components and enclosure accessories.The Wohner system is fitted directly to the mounting plate within the enclosure with cable or flexibar risers feeding the individual systems.

Connections between the risers and the busbars are made with standard 'clamp-on' terminal plates, which totally eliminate the need for drilling, which would be a requirement with conventional busbar systems.

The Wohner system also significantly reduces the amount of space, trunking and cabling required because the distribution or control gear mounts directly over the busbar system on a range of universal busbar adaptors.

With universal busbar systems from 200A to 2500A, ETA and Wohner are confident in meeting all system requirements.

Mark Greaves, ETA (UK) General Manager commented, 'The trend toward 'one-supplier' integration, will further underline the position of ETA (UK) as a real alternative provider of top quality, complete enclosure solutions.

He went on to say, 'Wohner are well established and respected in their own markets for supplying an 'across the range offering' of electrical power distribution systems and this partnership can only promote and strengthen both our brands across our respective markets.
