3AH0 Vacuum Circuit Breaker The right choice for varied tasks
Construction : l Light weight and compact vacuum circuit breaker consisting of three encapsulated vacuum interrupter poles and a drive mechanism housing which forms a sturdy base for poles. l Operating mechanism is of stored energy type and suitable for auto reclosing duty. It can be manual/ electrical as desired. l Fully integrated contact arms with tulip type contacts.
Standards :
l l

Advantages of vacuum over other interrupting media : l Highest dielectric strength over a small contact gap. l Constant low contact resistance. l Fastest recovery strength. l Lowest arc energy dissipation. l Lowest drive energy requirements. l Minimum contact erosion. l No fire hazards or explosion risk. l VCB has least number of moving parts and hence highest reliability. Freedom from maintenance : l Maintenance free with new generation imported vacuum interrupters. l The gear box is sealed and lubricated for life. l Free from chain snapping problem of conventional operating drive mechanism.

Environmental compatibility : l The vacuum circuit breaker has no effect on the environment during and after the switching operations.

IS 13118. IEC 62271-100.

Salient features : l Conforms to IS/IEC standards and is fully type tested. l Simple and compact design. l Totally restrike free. l Suitable for rapid autoreclosing duty. l Highly reliable operation. l Suitable for all environments. l High switching capability. l Matching drive and interrupter characteristics. l All type tests carried out with VCB mounted inside the panel.
