When power is essential to your industrial activities, Socomec has the expertise needed to guarantee the performance of your electrical installations.
By providing innovative solutions specifically tailored to the requirements of your sector, we help protect your electrical systems and ensure system availability.
Whether you’re a design engineer, site manager or industrial operator, you can count on our expert advice and innovative solutions to guarantee the function of your electrical installations and help you meet your energy targets.
Ensure the safety and permanent availability of your power supply
In industry, the safety and permanent availability of power supply is crucial for guaranteeing continuity of operations and preventing costly shutdowns.
Our range of transfer switches means that you can perform maintenance and tests on your power systems, without cutting the power supply. They guarantee a smooth transition between different power sources, ensuring that your mission-critical processes are not interrupted, even during technical interventions.
UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) provides stable and continuous power supply, even in the most demanding conditions.
Finally, our expert services contracts can include regular inspections of your mission-critical equipment, preventive maintenance visits and other services to maintain an optimal safety and performance level.
Analyse the quality of power and power supply
Poor quality power represents significant risks for industry, potentially having a direct impact on productivity, profitability, regulatory compliance and operational safety.
To guarantee the quality of power supply in an industrial environment and avoid operating losses due to malfunction, deterioration or breakdown, it is essential to use a network analyser and metering system.
A network analyser monitors electrical parameters in real time. By quickly detecting deviations from standards, it identifies potential problems, such as power surges, voltage dips, or load imbalances before they cause damage to equipment or interrupt production.
Multi-circuit metering systems can be used to easily add more measurement points. This provides flexibility for monitoring new equipment or zones without a major review of the current power system.
Protect people and equipment
In an industrial environment, it is crucial to prevent and manage risks to guarantee the safety of people and property. Industrial buildings have complex and powerful electrical installations and it is therefore vital to have reliable protection equipment.
Systems such as fuse combination switches are essential to secure electrical circuits in the event of overloads or short circuits. They provide a quick and efficient outage to protect sensitive equipment from potential damage and reduce the risk of serious incident.
Maintenance or repairs on industrial equipment also represent significant risks for operators. To minimize these risks, it is essential to use certified safety enclosures.
Incorporating advanced protection devices into your installations will protect your most valuable assets - your employees and equipment.
Reduce energy costs
In industry, energy cost saving is a powerful lever to make your business more competitive and increase the profitability of production chains.
According to studies by the IEA (International Energy Agency), a 10% to 20% increase in energy efficiency is often possible in many industries thanks to modern technologies and energy management practices that can lead to significant savings.
To implement an energy-saving approach, reactive power needs to be reduced and consumption must be monitored to identify energy-intensive areas that can be optimised.
Power storage is also an interesting lever. This solution flattens consumption peaks and reduces your energy bills. What’s more, these systems can store surplus power for later use or resale, generating an additional source of revenue.
Reduce your carbon footprint
According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), the industrial sector represents approximately 37% of total global power consumption, and is responsible for around 22% of global energy-related carbon dioxide emissions.
In a global context where the fight against climate change has become a priority, industry has a crucial role to play in the energy transition.
Power storage solutions are an efficient way of integrating renewable energy, along with electric vehicle charging terminals in industrial environments.
Reducing your dependency on fossil fuels will also reduce your greenhouse gas emissions.
The use of remote operated services is also interesting to limit travel and therefore pollution linked to transport.
