Fuji Electric DC High-speed Vacuum Circuit Breaker
Fuji Electric DC High-speed Vacuum Circuit Breaker
Device features
Substation maintenance can be greatly streamlined
With arcless circuit interruption, dramatic reductions in maintenance can be planned, and other maintenance-saving equipment and maintenance cycles can be synchronized.Energy-saving features
Low loss and low energy operation help to save energy. The dry capacitors used are incombustible and eco-friendly.Large current interruption performance
The high breaking capacity and faster opening time of the vacuum valve have achieved a 100 kA circuit interruption.Total area interruption performance
From large to small current, all current can be reliably interrupted. Large load current can also be securely turned on.High operating reliability
High operating reliability is achieved through redundant configuration of critical components, high noise-resistant design, as well as clarification of periodic replacement parts.
