Environmental Solutions That Are Good For Your Cash Stream, Too.

Cooper Power Systems offers the innovative products and expert support to help you protect the environment— and your bottom line.

Our environment-friendly transmission and distribution solutions help you save money. How? By improving performance. Reducing risk. Enhancing safety. Simplifying installation and maintenance. And making it easier to comply with government regulations. We’ll even show you the savings potential up-front.

We can demonstrate supply chain savings with our new Total Life Cycle (TLC) Cost Calculation software or a systems reliability study. We’ll help you calculate specific short- and long-term savings or cost-justify the purchase of environmental solutions like these: Our line of NOVA™ vacuum reclosers, sectionalizers, capacitor switches, and distribution automation switches are oil-free, SF-6 gas-free, and maintenance-free. So you can eliminate environmental risks plus the time and money associated with disposal regulations, special handling precautions, monitoring, filtering, and replenishing. (A lightweight, compact design even reduces shipping and installation costs.)

In response to customers’ concerns over PCB fluids and the fire safety of conventional transformer oils, we developed R-Temp® , a non-toxic biodegradable fluid. R-Temp fluid has a flawless fire safety record—in more than 90,000 installations—since 1975. It’s Factory Mutual Approved and UL® -Classified for easy, cost-effective code compliance in fire-sensitive installations. Now, we’re introducing an even better transformer fluid option—the revolutionary Envirotemp® FR3 fluid for our Envirotran™ Transformers. Envirotemp FR3 is made from non-toxic, biodegradable, food-grade base oils. It enhances fire safety while reducing the hazards from spills, and it’s also FM Approved and UL-Classified, simplifying site requirements and regulatory compliance. Envirotemp FR3 provides a high efficiency, cost-competitive alternative to dry-type transformers.

At Cooper, we don’t think anyone should have to choose between saving money and saving the earth.
