Aluminium power conducting arms
Brar aluminium solutions: less weight, more energy savings
Brar's aluminium power conducting arms are ideal for applications where reducing weight is essential without compromising performance. These arms, featuring a box-type structure similar to bimetal models, provide excellent mechanical strength and efficient heat dissipation.
The internal cooling system is designed to optimize water flow near the outer walls, where heat accumulates, ensuring effective cooling. Aluminium arms reduce overall weight by 30% compared to bimetal solutions while maintaining a similar reactance. Additionally, they offer up to 5% energy savings, making them perfect for steelworks that require greater efficiency and lightness.
The aluminium profile-cooled arms are designed to channel cooling water only to the areas where it is needed, specifically in the profile through which the electric current flows. This targeted approach significantly reduces the volume of water required, improves process efficiency, and extends the service life of the components.
