VB4 Series Vacuum Circuit Breaker

General

VB4P medium-voltage indoor vacuum circuit breaker is applicable for three-phase AC power system of rated voltage up to 12~24kV and frequency 50/60Hz,widely used in many fields such as power plant, transformer substation, petrol chemical industry, metallurgy, manufacturing industry, airport, residential area, etc., to control and protect the electric equipment, especially, It is used for the occasion that needs infrequent operation at rated current or multi-breaking short circuit current, may be mounted in the indoor air insulating switchgear like type KYN28 or AMS, ABB type ZS1 series, etc. This circuit breaker is standards refer to IEC60694.

This circuit breaker is made with mature APG technology. The application of VB4P terminal buffer guarantees the indoor terminal is ever more reliable in nay operation environment. VB4P can fully meet the requirement of GB, DL, IEC, DIN, VDE as well as standards of other advanced industrial countries.

Embeded pole design

  • High Reliability

Compared with the traditional assembled pole, the number of parts, conductor connection surface connecting fasteners used for the Embedded Pole can be reduced by a big margin so as to simplify the assembly procedure of the main circuit, lower the circuit resistance and enhance the reliability of the main circuit connection.

  • Stable Insulating Property

After the vacuum interrupter is embedded in the solid epoxy resin material, the external environment of the pole can make the lowest effect on the vacuum interrupter. With the external insulating capacity, the pole can not be affected by dust, humidity, small animals, condensation and pollutions. It can completely meet the creepage distance requirement of the II-grade polluted region specified in the GB/DL Standard.

  • Firm Structure

Provide the sufficient protection for the vacuum interrupter so that it can not suffer the accidental mechanical collision in the process of assembling or transportation.

  • Miniaturization

Adopt the epoxy resin as the insulation medium to reduce the phase distance and decrease the volume of the vacuum circuit breaker & its matching switch cabinet.

  • Free Maintenance

As the whole pole is poured into the integral component, the vacuum interrupter can get the sufficient protection. The free maintenance of the vacuum interrupter can provide the condition for the free maintenance of the circuit breaker.
