14 SACE Tmax Moulded-case circuit-breakers | ABB ABB | SACE Tmax Moulded-case circuit-breakers 15
A single family of moulded-case circuit-breakers up to 3200 A
Certifications and Shipping Registers
The moulded-case circuit-breakers and their accessories comply
with IEC60947-2 international standards and conform to EC directive
“Low Voltage Directives (LVD) N° 73/23 EEC” and “Electromagnetic
Compatibilities Directives (EMC) N° 89/ 336 EEC”.
Certification of conformity with the product Standards is carried out
in the ABB SACE tests laboratory (accredited by SINAL) in respect
of the EN 45011 European Standard, by the Italian certification body
ACAE (Association for Certification of Electrical Apparatus), member
of the European LOVAG organisation (Low Voltage Agreement Group)
and by the Swedish certification body SEMKO belonging to the inter-
national IECEE organisation.
The SACE Tmax XT series has a hologram on the front, obtained
using special anti-forgery techniques,a guarantee of the quality and
genuineness of the circuit-breaker as an ABB SACE product.
There is also an entire range of moulded-case circuit-breakers
conforming to UL/CSA standards, with rated current values ranging
from 1 to 3000A and breaking capacities, at 600V AC, that can reach
100kA.
All the equipment also conforms to the specifications for installations
on board and to those of RINA, DNV, BV, ABS, GL, LRs, PRS, RMRS,
NKK type-approvals.
Corporate Quality System
The ABB SACE Quality System conforms with the following Stand-
ards:
• ISO 9001 international Standard;
• EN ISO 9001 (equivalent) European Standards;
• UNI EN ISO 9001 (equivalent) Italian Standards;
• IRIS International Railway Industry Standard
The ABB SACE Quality System attained its first certification with
the RINA certification body in 1990.
The ABB laboratory
The ABB S.p.A - ABB SACE Division Laboratory develops,
certifies and performs follow-up activities for the production
of switchgear and controlgear designed and manufactured in
various different ABB plants. The Laboratory provides a vast
range of installations and experience with regard to the elec-
trical, mechanical, climatic and functional tests required for
low and medium voltage operating, control, safety and meas-
uring mechanisms.
ABB's respect for the environment
Attention to protection of the environment is a priory commitment for
ABB SACE. Confirmation ofthis is the realisation of an Environmental
Management System certified by RINA (ABB SACE was
the first industry in the electromechanical sector in Italy to obtain this
recognition) in conformity with the International ISO14001 Standard.
In 1999 the Environmental Management System was integrated with
the Occupational Health and Safety Management System according
to the OHSAS 18001 Standard and later, in 2005, with the SA 8000
(Social Accountability 8000) Standard, committing itself to respect
of business ethics and working conditions.
The commitment to environmental protection becomes concrete
through:
• selection of materials, processes and packaging which optimise
the true environmental impact of the product
• use of recyclable materials
• voluntary respect of the RoHS directive
ISO 14001, 18001 and SA8000 recognitions togheter with ISO
9001 made it possible to obtain RINA BEST FOUR CERTIFICATION.
The Laboratory has been certified in Italy by ACCREDIA
and, due to acknowledgements from important international
certification bodies such as ACAE/LOVAG, ANCE, ASTA, ETL
SEMKO, UL, CSA and Shipping Registers, offers ABB and
external customers a qualified certification test service for low
and medium voltage electrical devices and equipment, in ac-
cordance with the respective product standards.
