NOJA Power OSM38 Recloser wins Best Exhibition Showpiece

Switchgear Manufacturer NOJA Power today celebrates the accolade of Best Exhibition Showpiece at the 2019 Coal and Mining Conference in Novokuznetsk Russia for the OSM38 38kV Pole Mounted Autoreclosing Circuit Breaker.

Attended by 45,000 delegates over 3 days in June, the Coal and Mining Conference is one of the largest events in the conference Calendar for Commonwealth of Independent States nations. With 714 exhibitors from 24 different nations, the OSM38 was among tough competition for the top spot as best exhibition showpiece.

The win can be likely traced to the firms’ significant investments in R&D, creating a perpetual product improvement process that has driven the OSM38 Autorecloser to represent the latest in ACR technology. Supplied as a system with the firm’s RC-10 or RC-15 controller, the OSM38 has the highest resolution, precision and sensitivity of protection commercially available today, including a proprietary sensor design facilitating a minimum protection pickup of 200mA current on the primary side, essential for High Impedance fault detection and public safety. This is supplemented by a comprehensive suite of communications ports and protocols to integrate the system in any Smart Grid network or distribution network automation system.

“The OSM38 is a field proven product with installations in all climatic conditions on all continents worldwide,” reports NOJA Power Group Managing Director Neil O’Sullivan. “To be recognised as the best exhibition show piece is a great honour considering the high levels of engineering capability amongst the CIS nations.”
