Schneider Electric South Africa, a leader in digital transformation for energy management and automation, has launched the TeSys Deca Advanced, an advanced contactor solution designed to revolutionise motor management with unparalleled efficiency, reliability, simplicity and sustainability.
The TeSys Deca Advanced stands out with its wide-band coil technology, which controls 24v to 500v AC/DC voltage inputs. This innovative feature not only withstands voltage fluctuations but also minimises energy consumption, resulting in reduced CO2 emissions and lower operational costs.
Thapelo Manthata, Offer Manager Power Products (PPCTR) at Schneider Electric South Africa, says that the TeSys Deca Advanced contactor is built for a range of industrial applications. By combining digital capabilities, reduced energy consumption and a more simplified installation, the unit is engineered to help optimise motor management while supporting sustainability and operational resilience.
Ideal applications
“The ideal applications for the TeSys Deca Advanced are robust, high industrial environments. As a contractor, it can be used for hoisting, pumps, HVAC systems, elevators and packaging applications. Additionally, it is suitable for mining and wastewater environments, among others,” says Manthata.
“So, it was designed for diverse industrial applications and simplifies installation and maintenance processes. Its ergonomic three-layer setup organises wiring for optimal visibility and accessibility, streamlining operations and minimising the need for specialised skills in the workforce.”
He adds that with one-click connection technology, installation efforts are reduced by up to 75%, allowing for rapid deployment in critical environments where uptime is essential. Additionally, direct PLC control capability reduces complexity in selection and inventory management by 80%, facilitating smoother operations.
Built for reliability
“TeSys Deca Advanced is built for reliability, having gone through comprehensive testing to guarantee peak performance. It supports predictive maintenance by offering real-time diagnostics, allowing users to foresee and address potential problems before they cause any downtime,” says Manthata.
“The TeSys Deca Advanced unit is designed to improve operational efficiency in various sectors, including manufacturing, HVAC, and industrial facilities. By integrating advanced technology with a strong emphasis on sustainability, we remain committed to maximising uptime and providing exceptional value.”
