DSM engineering plastics provide more cost-efficient route to safer circuit breakers.Royal DSM, the global Life Sciences and Materials Sciences company, is the first engineering plastics supplier to offer a full portfolio of materials that can replace thermosets in demanding molded-case circuit breakers (MCCBs) with open arc extinguishing chambers. DSM has solutions for all the separate housing components, as well as for the functional internal parts in the arc extinguishing chamber of the circuit breaker, resulting in a 100% safe and cost-effective solution. Jiangsu Phono Electrical Co. Ltd is the first company to use Stanyl in an arc chamber for MCCBs.Suppliers of electrical goods want to cut costs while retaining the highest quality and safety. They are becoming more global in their operations, but they still need local capabilities to meet their local needs trend that is being driven not only by consumers but also by the need to conform to local regulations, national standards and building codes, and local content incentives. DSM, having regional technical centers around the world, is in a strong position to address these trends. DSM has been a pioneer in replacing thermosets in low voltage switchgear (LVSG) applications such as miniature circuit breakers (MCBs) for over 35 years. Now, with its most recent developments, the company has a proven portfolio of engineering plastics and support services that will enable material substitution in MCCBs, which are far more demanding in their technical requirements.
