Description

Product introduction

LW36-72.5 self-energy outdoor HV AC sulfur hexafluoride circuit breaker is an outdoor three-phase porcelain column electrical equipment mainly used in AC 50Hz or 60Hz, 72.5kV electricity systems in extremely cold regions (for electric stations in general regions and -42'℃ extremely cold regions). This product can be operated frequently and used as a connection circuit breaker.

Main characteristic

  • High performance -strong rated circulating ability: strong short circuit breaking ability up to 5500A. 50kA.

  • Long service life -electrical endurance: 50kAx21times; mechanical life: 10000 times.

  • Reliable breaking performance.

  •  Reliable sealing performance; Annual leakage of SF6 gas ≤0.5%.

  • Meeting the requirements of hard running environments -suitable for Class IV polluted environments.

  • Multi-structure forms-usually porcelain column type and handcart type.

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.
