Product Overview
The FZW13A-12 Series Outdoor High-Voltage Vacuum Load Break Switch is a professional switching device engineered for 12kV, 50Hz AC power distribution networks. Specialized in breaking and closing load currents, it also features the capability to interrupt no-load transformers and capacitor banks, serving as a core component for outdoor medium-voltage power distribution in urban and rural grids, industrial facilities, and infrastructure projects worldwide.
Adopting advanced vacuum arc-extinguishing technology and a manual spring-operated mechanism, this switch delivers superior breaking and closing performance, excels in frequent operation scenarios, and complies with international IEC standards for high-voltage electrical equipment. Its compact, lightweight, and maintenance-free design ensures reliable on-site operation with minimal operational costs, making it a trusted choice for global overseas purchasers.
Technical Advantages
- Superior Vacuum Arc-Extinguishing Performance:Equipped with a high-quality vacuum interrupter for arc extinction, the switch achieves excellent breaking and closing capabilities with stable electrical performance. The vacuum medium ensures no gas leakage, no fire hazard, and strong environmental adaptability, perfectly suiting the harsh working conditions of outdoor power distribution.
- Multi-Scenario Operational Capability:Beyond basic load current breaking and closing, it is specially designed to interrupt no-load transformers and capacitor banks, meeting the diverse operational needs of 12kV AC power networks and improving the versatility of on-site application.
- Reliable Manual Spring-Operated Mechanism:Configured with a precision manual spring-operated mechanism, it is optimized for frequent operation scenarios—its stable mechanical action ensures accurate and reliable switching, with a long service life and no need for complex daily adjustment.
- User-Friendly & Low-Maintenance Design:Boasts simple operation, compact volume, and light weight, enabling easy pole-mounted installation and on-site operation without professional technical personnel. The fully sealed vacuum structure and wear-resistant components realize a true maintenance-free design, eliminating regular servicing and reducing lifecycle operation and maintenance costs.
- Customizable Configuration for Diverse Needs:Can be equipped with surge arresters or disconnectors according to customer requirements (combining load switch with disconnector functions), forming an integrated switching and protection solution. This customizable design adapts to the specific technical requirements of different overseas power distribution projects, enhancing on-site adaptability.
- Strong Outdoor Environmental Adaptability:Rigorously designed for outdoor operation, it resists harsh conditions such as extreme temperatures, high humidity, strong wind, and moderate pollution. Its robust housing and sealed internal structure protect core components from external interference, ensuring long-term stable operation in various outdoor working environments.
Key Application Scenarios
- Urban & Rural 12kV AC Power Grids: Pole-mounted installation for outdoor feeder lines, ideal for load current switching and no-load transformer/capacitor bank interruption in residential areas, rural villages, and suburban distribution networks.
- Industrial Outdoor Power Distribution: Applied in factories, mines, and industrial parks for outdoor medium-voltage power distribution, adapting to frequent operation needs and providing reliable switching protection for production equipment.
- Infrastructure & Public Facilities: Used for outdoor power supply of schools, hospitals, commercial plazas, and transportation hubs, ensuring stable power distribution for critical public loads.
- Grid Renovation & Upgrading Projects: A cost-effective upgrade option for old 12kV outdoor power distribution systems, improving switching performance and power supply reliability without large-scale grid reconstruction.
- Capacitor Bank & Transformer Matching: Specialized for scenarios with capacitor bank and no-load transformer operation, perfectly matching the reactive power compensation and power transformation equipment of medium-voltage power networks.
