ABB has revealed the next generation of its flagship air circuit breaker, the SACE Emax 3. Aimed at large facilities with high power demands, including data centres, advanced manufacturing sites and critical infrastructure including hospitals and airports, the innovative Emax 3 is designed to address increased concerns about grid stability, cybersecurity, and the surging power needs of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in data centres. The successor to the industry-leading Emax 2 smart circuit breaker, the Emax 3 introduces cutting-edge technology to minimize the risk of power outages. Featuring the industry’s most accurate power sensors and data analytics, the Emax 3 collects and analyses real-time data from the electrical system, including power usage, system health, and environmental conditions such as temperature. This information is shared remotely or on the Emax 3 touchscreen, offering users real-time insights, warnings, and recommendations for precise maintenance.
