Oil & Gas
Optimising Oil & Gas Operations with Motor Control Solutions
The oil and gas industry demands robust and reliable motor control solutions for critical applications, from pumps and compressors to blowers and centrifuges. AuCom provides a complete suite of motor control solutions, including soft starters and variable frequency drives (VFDs), designed to optimise performance, protect equipment, and enhance system efficiency even in the most challenging environments.
Soft starters provide significant benefits in oil and gas applications, including:
- Reduced start current to minimise stress on the electrical supply, especially in remote applications like offshore oil rigs or isolated pumping stations
- Undercurrent and overload detection to warn of abnormal load conditions, such as broken couplings, belts, or blocked pipes
- Gentle acceleration to minimise pressure surges and reduce mechanical stress during startup, extending equipment life and ensuring smoother operation across the system
Product Spotlight
MVX
The MVX soft starter is the smallest (and safest) medium voltage soft-starter in its class, with a smaller panel footprint than any other MV soft starter in the market today.
