Power distribution of the future
ABB and Rittal enter into technology partnership
Making the electrical infrastructure fit for future challenges with greater safety and speed - that is the aim of the new technology partnership between ABB and Rittal. Together, the two companies want to create innovations for the European and international market that will significantly accelerate the development and expansion of electrical infrastructure.
Joint developments are based on RiLineX as a new standard platform for busbar systems, Ri4Power as a modular system kit for power distribution, market-leading switchgear and efficient uninterruptible power supplies.
The partnership brings together two global technology leaders in their respective domains for joint developments: ABB as an innovative manufacturer of intelligent, networked and secure power supplies and Rittal as a leading provider of enclosure systems and power distribution platforms. With 75% faster assembly and an innovative platform concept, RiLineX sets the new standard in power distribution - supported by a growing ecosystem of proven technology partners.
"We are delighted to be transforming our long-standing collaboration with ABB in the field of uninterruptible power supplies for data centers and switching and control technology for power distribution systems into a global technology partnership. We will be expanding our RiLineX and Ri4Power platforms with joint innovations in the future," says Uwe Scharf, Managing Director Sales Germany and Europe at Rittal.
"This partnership combines advanced low-voltage technology with proven power distribution platforms to deliver best-in-class results for control and switchgear builders," said Piero-Giorgio Schiannini, Head of Smart Power & Smart Buildings Sales and Marketing, ABB Electrification: "The seamless compatibility between ABB solutions such as Tmax XT and Rittal's Ri4Power systems ensures a better customer experience - one that reduces complexity, shortens project lead times and ensures reliable performance."
