This breaker adopts a three-phase porcelain post single-break structure, operated by a centrally located spring mechanism that drives all three poles simultaneously. Its SF6 chamber is interconnected across all three poles, monitored by a pointer-type density relay. With optimized motion system design and self-energy arc-extinguishing principle, it achieves high mechanical efficiency and reduced operating power. The breaker is resistant to corrosion due to hot-dip galvanizing and stainless-steel components, ensuring reliable performance in harsh environments.
Innovative structure – Three-phase porcelain post design with central spring operating mechanism
Excellent breaking performance – Long electrical life with reliable arc-extinguishing
High corrosion resistance – Stainless steel housing and hot-dip galvanized structural components
High mechanical reliability – Suitable for frequent operations
No restrike – Optimized contact motion ensures no reignition when breaking capacitive currents
Strong insulation performance – External insulation adopts large creepage design (creepage distance 31mm/kV), excellent pollution resistance
High current capacity – Passed temperature rise test at 1.2 times rated current (3780A), maintaining thermal margin
Compact and efficient – Simple installation, low maintenance workload, and compact structure
