Description

Product introduction

  • 72.5kV High - voltage Vacuum Circuit Breaker is a crucial electrical device. It uses vacuum as the arc - extinguishing and insulating medium, boasting high reliability and excellent performance.

  • This breaker can quickly and effectively cut off load current and short - circuit current, protecting the power system. It features a high - current breaking capacity and a long electrical life.

  • With a compact structure, it is suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications in 72.5kV power systems. It complies with relevant international and national standards, ensuring stable and safe operation in power distribution networks.

Main characteristic

  • Excellent arc - extinguishing and insulation: Using vacuum as the arc - extinguishing and insulation medium, it has strong arc - extinguishing ability and stable and reliable insulation performance. It can effectively prevent arc reignition and other problems, ensuring the safe operation of the power system.

  • Powerful breaking capacity: It can quickly and efficiently cut off load current and short - circuit current. It has high rated current and short - circuit breaking current parameters. For example, the rated current can reach 3150A, and the rated short - circuit breaking current can reach 40kA, which can meet the current breaking requirements of different working conditions in the power system.

  • Long mechanical and electrical life: The mechanical life can reach 20,000 times, and the electrical life can reach 30 times. It is not easy to be damaged by frequent operations, reducing the frequency of equipment replacement and maintenance, and lowering the operation and maintenance costs.

  • Good environmental adaptability: The operating ambient temperature range is - 40~55℃, enabling it to work stably in various climatic conditions. It can operate normally in areas with an altitude of no more than 5000m, is suitable for pollution class Ⅲ environments, has an aseismatic class of AG5, and a wind speed resistance of 34m/s, adapting to different geographical and environmental conditions.

  • Reasonable structural design: It has a compact structure, occupies a small space, and is easy to install and arrange. There are multiple structural forms available (such as the common porcelain column type and handcart type), which is convenient for integration with different power systems and equipment.

  • Compliance with standards and specifications: It is manufactured in strict accordance with relevant international and national standards, ensuring stable product quality and performance, and enabling reliable operation in the power system.

FAQ
Q: What are the differences between this product and similar products from ABB/Siemens?
A:

The LW10B \ lLW36 \ LW58 series products in the sample booklet are porcelain column SF ₆ circuit breakers based on the ABB'LTB series improvement, with voltage coverage of 72.5kV-800kV, using Auto Buffer ™ Self powered arc extinguishing technology or vacuum arc extinguishing technology, integrated spring/motor driven operating mechanism, supports various customized services, covering 40.5-1100kV full voltage levels, with outstanding modular design and strong customization ability, suitable for projects that require flexible adaptation to different power grid architectures. Made in China, with fast global service response speed, high logistics efficiency, and high reliability at a reasonable price.

Q: What are the core differences between live tank circuit breakers and tank circuit breakers?
A:
  1. The core differences between porcelain column circuit breakers and tank circuit breakers—two main structural types of high-voltage circuit breakers—lie in six key aspects.
  2. Structurally, porcelain column types are supported by porcelain insulation pillars, with open-layout components like arc extinguishing chambers and operating mechanisms. Tank types use metal-sealed tanks to encapsulate and highly integrate all core parts.
  3. For insulation, the former relies on porcelain pillars, air, or composite insulating materials; the latter combines SF₆ gas (or other insulating gases) with metal tanks.
  4. Arc extinguishing chambers are mounted on the top or pillars of porcelain columns for the former, while built inside metal tanks for the latter.
  5. In application, porcelain column types suit outdoor high-voltage distribution with a dispersed layout; tank types adapt flexibly to indoor/outdoor scenarios, especially space-constrained environments.
  6. Maintenance-wise, the former’s exposed components enable targeted repairs; the latter’s sealed structure reduces overall maintenance frequency but requires full inspections for local faults.
  7. Technically, porcelain column types offer intuitive structure and strong anti-pollution flashover performance, while tank types boast excellent sealing, high SF₆ insulation strength, and superior resistance to external interference.
Q: What is a live tank circuit breaker? What voltage level is it suitable for they?
A:

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.
