DESCRIPTION
Accessories
The VD4 circuit-breakers have a complete range
of accessories to satisfy all installation require-
ments.
The operating mechanism has a standardised
range of accessories and spare parts which are
easy to identify and order.
The accessories are installed conveniently from
the front of the circuit-breaker. Electrical connec-
tion is carried out with plug-socket connectors.
Use, maintenance and service of the apparatus
are simple and require limited use of resources.
Operating mechanism
The operating mechanism is of the stored energy
type and has the anti-pumping device mounted as
standard and is fitted with suitable locks to prevent
incorrect operations.
Each operation sequence is only enabled if all the
conditions ensuring it being carried out correctly
are respected.
The accessories are the same for all the type
VD4s of circuit-breaker.
To facilitate assembly and replacement of acces-
sories, assembly seats with appropriated fixed
strikers are provided.

SPECIFIC PRODUCT CHARACTERISTICS
Altitude
The insulating property of air decreases as the
altitude increases, therefore this must always
be taken into account for external insulation of
the apparatus (the internal insulation of the inter-
rupters do not undergo any variations as it is
guaranteed by vacuum).
The phenomenon must always be taken into con- Ka = e m (H – 1000)/8150
(IEC 60071-2)
sideration during the design stage of the insulat-
ing components of apparatus to be installed over
1000 m above sea level In this case a correction
coefficient must be considered, which can be
taken from the graph to the side, built up on the
basis of the indications in the IEC 60694 Stand-
ards.
The following example is a clear interpretation of
the indications given above.

Anti-pumping device
The EL operating mechanism on HD4 circuit-
breakers (in all versions) is fitted with a mechani-
cal anti-pumping device which prevents re-closing
due to either electrical or mechanical commands.
Should both the closing command and any one of
the opening commands be active at the same
time, there would be a continuous succession of
opening and closing operations.
The anti-pumping device avoids this situation, en-
suring that each closing operation is only followed
by a single opening operation and that there is no
closing operation after this. To obtain a further
closing operation, the closing command must be
released and then relaunched.
Furthermore, the anti-pumping device only allows
circuit-breaker closure if the following conditions
are present at the same time:
– operating mechanism springs fully charged
– opening pushbutton and/or opening release
(-MO1/-MO2) not enabled
– circuit-breaker open.
