Copper Bus Bar in Close-Up

At Luvata, we work closely with electrolysis facilities worldwide to offer a comprehensive range of products optimized for equipping new installations and modernizing old ones. Our bus bar systems are designed to meet the demanding requirements of the metal industry, ensuring high efficiency and reliability. Choose Luvata for reliable, high-performance bus bar systems for copper or zinc refineries.

Applications

  • Copper refineries
  • Zinc refineries

Bus Bar Systems & Solutions

We produce copper busbars that carry vast amounts of current, tailored to the needs of copper and zinc refineries. Our busbars are designed to meet specific customer requirements and provide exceptional quality and durability. In refining, the cross-sectional area of busbars must prevent overheating. We calculate the exact required dimensions for your project and produce even massive busbars to meet customer needs.

Sometimes an alternative to an all-copper solution is required. In addition to bus bar systems, we produce hanger bars in different shapes and dimensions, and our steel-cored hanger bars offer a combination of high strength and high conductivity with corrosion resistance. In addition to this, we produce water-cooled intermediate bus bars which enable the transfer of high currents efficiently.

Our Busbar Systems Benefits

  • Our busbars are made from oxygen-free copper (Cu-OF), which is immune to hydrogen embrittlement and ensures excellent welding properties. With high malleability and electrical conductivity, our copper is the ideal material for installations that handle high voltage and currents.

  • The role of our bus bar systems in the refining process is crucial—they conduct substantial electric currents to refinery tanks to ensure efficient electrolysis. Using Cu-OF copper, our busbars offer maximal electrical conductivity for optimal performance.

Comprehensive Service

We supply our bus bars as part of a complete package—from engineering to production and delivery to installation. This ensures improved scheduling, cost control, and maintaining the close collaboration our customers value. When purchasing from Luvata, our expertise includes project calculations and busbar installation supervision. By working closely together with leading equipment suppliers and engineering offices we also have the capability to supply the electrical supply system for the entire plant.
