ver the past six years, Taipei 101 has been dazzling people with spectacular fireworks. When the audience starts to count down, every timer to set off the fireworks is precisely controlled by a magnetic switch at each floor. A low quality magnetic contactor can trigger the timer to set off the fireworks too early or too late and result in disaster. The reason that Shihlin Electric was selected to be the partner for such an important job is because of their switchgear reliability and over 50 years of experience. As a result, magnetic switch (S-P11) for fireworks launched successfully from Taipei 101 skyscraper on New Year's Eve broadcasts, and Shihlin Electric's relentlessness in designing good power distribution systems paid off.
Taiwan Hsuehshan Tunnel's Usage of Shihlin Electric's Magnetic Switch, Circuit Breaker Products
Hsuehshan Tunnel is the longest underground road tunnel in Asia, and it is also the 5th longest tunnel in the world, at nearly 13km (8 miles) long. Again, Shihlin Electric was chosen to set up the magnetic switch power distribution system for this long tunnel, which many factors are needed to be considered such as the humidity level, the maintain system and the long-life stability of magnetic switch.
he selection of Shihlin Electric's magnetic switch (S-P21) was due to their superior products preventing the humidity in the tunnel. As we know, high temperatures and humidity are the major factors affecting lights' stability and life cycle. Shihlin Electric's magnetic contactors have international certification including UL, CSA, TUV, which means they are suitable for JIS, JEM, IEC, EN and VDE, and their magnetic switches' high flexibility for various types of uses is also one of their great advantages.
PS.Every circuit breaker, magnetic switchis tested under imitated circumstances, including temperature, humidity and vibration tests in various environments
Shihlin Electric is a Taiwanese multinational conglomerate corporation that has been providing power distribution system and products globally. Shihlin Electric began to work with Mitsubishi Group 30 years ago for circuit breakers (CB) and magnetic switch (MS)'s development, based on rules to meet Taiwan market, and their circuit breaker and magnetic switch is built with international standards.
