LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
nVent Electric plc (NYSE:NVT) (“nVent”), a global leader in electrical
connection and protection solutions, will be launching the Elexant
family of next-generation controls at the beginning of next year.
Further strengthening the nVent RAYCHEM portfolio of thermal electrical
solutions and developed with a focus on enhanced connectivity and data
integration, the Elexant family provides advanced control and monitoring
for process heat management in industrial, commercial and residential
applications. The first products of the smart, connected series will be
available early 2019 to customers in North America, followed soon after
in the rest of the world.
“The launch of Elexant controllers is a testimony to nVent’s ongoing
commitment to expand its capabilities and create solutions that address
the safety, energy efficiency and reliability requirements of our
customers today and tomorrow. Industry 4.0 and the Internet of Things
are driven by automation and data exchange, in which interactive system
communications play a vitally important role,” said Beth Wozniak,
nVent’s chief executive officer. “The Elexant family is designed to
collect and integrate all data into one network and to provide customers
easy to use interfaces and full visibility of their assets. This allows
them to use data-driven insights to make more informed decisions and
protect what matters most to them.”
The new smart monitoring and control solutions will feature intuitive
designs for an enhanced user experience. Flexible communication options
will help customers to easily integrate Elexant controllers into their
existing facility allowing open communication between systems. As a
result, operators can achieve a lower cost of ownership and improve
reliability, making operations in the field easier and more productive
than ever before. The Elexant solutions will have international
approvals for usage in projects around the world.
“Working directly with our customers to understand their needs allows us
to design solutions that help them to stay ahead of the curve and at the
top of their respective industries,” said Brad Faulconer, president of
nVent Thermal Management. “The launch of the Elexant family of smart
solutions marks a significant breakthrough in next-generation
technologies for connectivity and protection to maximize operational
reliability, control and safety.”
