Description

Product Overview

The Side-Mounted Vacuum Circuit Breaker (ZN63(VS1)-12 Series) is a high-performance indoor high-voltage switching device designed for 12kV, 50Hz three-phase power systems. It serves as a core protection and control component, leveraging vacuum arc-extinguishing technology for exceptional reliability.
Its side-mounted, fixed installation design is optimized for integration into fixed-type switchgear, making it ideal for standalone use or in ring network systems, compact substations, and custom power distribution setups. It excels in scenarios requiring frequent operation at rated current or repeated short-circuit current interruption.

 Core Features

  • Vacuum Arc-Extinguishing Technology: Ensures fast, clean arc extinction with no gas pollution, delivering a long electrical life and minimal maintenance.
  • Side-Mounted Fixed Design: Space-saving structure that integrates seamlessly into fixed-type switchgear, maximizing layout efficiency.
  • High Operational Reliability: Engineered for frequent operation and repeated short-circuit current interruption, suitable for high-demand industrial and utility applications.
  • Flexible Deployment: Can be used independently or integrated into ring network systems, compact substations, and non-standard power distribution systems.
  • Wide Environmental Adaptability: Operates stably in temperatures from -15°C to +40°C, with seismic resistance up to 8 degrees and strong humidity tolerance.
  • Global Standard Compliance: Fully compliant with IEC and GB standards, ensuring reliable performance and worldwide market acceptance.

 Environmental Requirements
  • Temperature: -15°C to +40°C
  • Altitude: ≤1000m (custom insulation levels available for higher elevations)
  • Seismic Intensity: ≤8 degrees
  • Humidity: Daily average ≤95%, Monthly average ≤90%
  • Installation Environment: Indoor locations free from fire, explosion, severe pollution, chemical corrosion, and severe vibration.

 Application Scenarios

  • Fixed-Type Switchgear: The primary protection and control device for indoor 12kV switchgear in substations and industrial facilities.
  • Frequent Operation Sites: Ideal for industrial plants, mines, and renewable energy facilities requiring regular load switching.
  • Ring Network & Compact Substations: Provides reliable protection for urban distribution networks and compact power supply systems.
  • Custom Power Distribution: Adaptable for non-standard power systems and special-purpose electrical installations.
  • Critical Load Protection: Ensures continuous power supply for data centers, hospitals, and commercial buildings with high-reliability demands.

 Installation & Maintenance

  • Installation: Designed for side-mounted, fixed installation in indoor switchgear, with standardized mounting points for easy integration.
  • Operation: Supports manual and motorized operation, with clear mechanical indication for safe switching status confirmation.
  • Maintenance: Vacuum interrupters require no periodic servicing; only annual inspection of mechanical components and insulation is recommended.
  • Safety: Always follow lockout/tagout procedures during maintenance to prevent accidental re-energization.
