» 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.
» Operating mechanism is of
stored energy type and
suitable for auto reclosing
duty. It can be manual/
electrical as desired.
» Fully integrated contact
arms with tulip type
contacts.
» Highest dielectric strength
over a small contact gap.
» Constant low contact
resistance.
» Fastest recovery strength.
» Lowest arc energy
dissipation.
» Lowest drive energy
requirements.
» Minimum contact erosion.
» No fire hazards or
explosion risk.
» VCB has least number of
moving parts and hence
highest reliability.
» The vacuum circuit breaker
has no effect on the
environment during and
after the switching
operations.
» IS 13118.
» IEC 62271-100.
» Maintenance free with new
generation imported
vacuum interrupters.
» The gear box is sealed and
lubricated for life.
» Free from chain snapping
problem of conventional
operating drive
mechanism.
» Conforms to IS/IEC
standards and is fully type
tested.
» Simple and compact
design.
» Totally restrike free.
» Suitable for rapid
autoreclosing duty.
» Highly reliable operation.
» Suitable for all
environments.
» High switching capability.
» Matching drive and
interrupter characteristics.
» All type tests carried out
with VCB mounted inside
the panel.
