FEATURES

Arc extinguishing capability: Adopting advanced arc extinguishing technology and arc extinguishing chamber design, it can quickly extinguish the arc, effectively limit the duration and peak value of short-circuit current, reduce equipment damage, and improve the stability and reliability of the power grid.

Breaking ability: With high breaking ability, it can cut off high current circuits in a short time, ensuring reliable tripping in case of faults such as short circuits, and ensuring the safe operation of the power grid.

Protection function: Equipped with various protection devices such as overload protection, short circuit protection, undervoltage protection, etc., it can accurately detect and respond to various faults in the power grid in a timely manner, achieving comprehensive protection of circuits and equipment.

Operating mechanism: The operating mechanism is designed to be reliable and can achieve rapid closing and opening operations of the circuit breaker, while also having good mechanical life and stability, ensuring normal operation even under frequent operation or harsh environmental conditions.

Application area 

Power system: widely used in various aspects of power systems such as power plants, substations, and transmission lines, for controlling and protecting power equipment, ensuring stable transmission and distribution of electricity.

Industrial field: In the power supply system of industrial enterprises, such as factories, mines, metallurgy, chemical industries, etc., it is used to protect equipment such as motors, transformers, distribution cabinets, etc., to ensure the normal operation of industrial production.

Commercial and Civil Buildings: Used for power distribution systems in commercial and civil buildings such as shopping malls, office buildings, hotels, and residences, providing protection and control for electrical equipment such as lighting, air conditioning, and elevators, ensuring electrical safety and reliability.

Maintenance

Regular inspection: Regularly inspect the appearance of the circuit breaker unit to check for any abnormal phenomena such as damage, deformation, overheating, etc; Check if the connection parts are loose and ensure good electrical connection; Check whether the operation mechanism is flexible and whether there is any jamming phenomenon.

Cleaning and maintenance: Regularly clean the dust and dirt on the surface of the circuit breaker to keep the equipment clean; For key components such as arc extinguishing chambers, cleaning and maintenance can be carried out as needed to ensure good arc extinguishing performance.

Functional testing: Regularly conduct functional testing, including overload protection, short circuit protection, undervoltage protection and other functional tests, to verify whether the protection function of the circuit breaker is normal; At the same time, action testing of the operating mechanism can be conducted to ensure the reliability of its closing and opening operations.

Precautions

Installation process: It is necessary to strictly follow the product installation manual to ensure that the installation position of the circuit breaker is accurate and the installation environment meets the requirements. Avoid installing in places with high temperature, humidity, dust or corrosive gases. At the same time, the bolts and other connecting components at the connection points should be tightened in place to prevent safety hazards such as increased contact resistance due to looseness, heat generation, and even fire.

Daily maintenance: Regularly conduct a comprehensive inspection of the circuit breaker, including visual inspection, to check for any abnormal phenomena such as shell damage, deformation, discoloration, etc; Check the flexibility of the operating mechanism to ensure smooth movement of all components and no jamming phenomenon; Clean the dust and dirt on the surface and inside of the circuit breaker, keep the equipment clean, and ensure good heat dissipation and insulation performance.

Parameter matching: It must be strictly used according to the rated parameters of the product, and overvoltage and overcurrent operation are strictly prohibited. If the actual operating parameters exceed the rated range, it may cause premature damage to the circuit breaker and even lead to serious electrical accidents, affecting the safe operation of the entire power grid system.

Maintenance safety: When performing maintenance, repair, or replacement of components on circuit breakers, it is necessary to first cut off the power supply and take necessary safety protection measures, such as electrical testing and hanging grounding wires. Ensure that operations are carried out in a non electrified state to prevent electric shock accidents and ensure the safety of personnel.
