Product introduction
The LW58-252(W) outdoor self-energy high-voltage SF₆ circuit breaker is designed for 252kV, 50Hz AC power systems, serving as a critical control and protection device for power grid interconnections. Utilizing SF₆ gas for arc quenching and insulation, it features a self-energy power arc extinguishing double-action interrupter structure paired with a new-type spring operating mechanism. Renowned for its robust switching capability, low operating power, low noise, and high reliability, its technical indicators align with advanced domestic and international counterparts.
This three-phase SF₆ circuit breaker upgrades from single-pole, single-mechanism operation to a three-phase mechanical linkage system driven by a single mechanism. This design reduces mechanical complexity, enhances three-phase linkage reliability, and eliminates the risk of single-phase misoperation.
Main characteristic
Self-Energy Arc Extinguishing Technology: The double-action structure ensures stable breaking capacity under diverse loads.
High Operational Efficiency: Requires minimal operating power, with a mechanical life cycle of up to 10,000 cycles for prolonged reliability.
Superior Contact Design: Copper-tungsten arc contacts use integral sintering, withstanding high temperatures, minimal arc erosion, and over 20 full breaking operations.
Reliable Sealing & Insulation:
Annual SF₆ gas leakage rate < 0.5% via precision sealing technology.
Stringent dehumidification processes ensure SF₆ moisture content far below industry standards.
High insulation level with creepage distance > 31mm/kV.
Advanced Materials:
Arc extinguishing chamber valve plates use lightweight zinc-base alloy for stable gas dynamics and breaking performance.
Imported PTFE-composite nozzles offer excellent ablation resistance and consistent arc quenching.
Premium Components: Secondary circuit electrical units and SF₆ density relays are high-quality impact-resistant or joint-venture products.
Pure Spring Operating Mechanism: Forged from high-strength alloy steel, key components resist wear, ensuring low failure rates during frequent operations.

live tank circuit breaker is a structural form of high-voltage circuit breaker, which is characterized by the use of ceramic insulation pillars to support key components such as arc extinguishing chamber and operating mechanism. The arc extinguishing chamber is usually arranged on the top or pillar of the ceramic pillar. It is mainly suitable for medium and high voltage power systems, with voltage levels covering the range of 72.5 kV to 1100 kV. live tank circuit breakers are common control and protection equipment in outdoor distribution devices such as 110 kV, 220 kV, 550 kV, and 800 kV substations.
