    Technical characteristics
    ● Reasonable design and novel structure

    The operating mechanism is integrated with the "five-prevention" interlocking mechanism, and modular design is adopted for components such as the (load switch) solid-sealed pole and the earthing switch. These components are combined into a single unit through a common mounting frame. The operating panel indicators are integrated with the primary circuit indicators, providing clear, simple, and easy-to-understand indications. The interlocking design is rationally integrated to form a "foolproof" operating procedure, making incorrect operations "impossible".

    ● Miniaturization

    Compared with air-insulated switches of the same model and specification, the device has a smaller volume, with a cabinet width of only 500 mm. It is a paragon of the new generation of miniaturized air-insulated switchgear.

    ● Less maintenance

    The device uses maintenance-free vacuum (arc extinguishing chamber) switch (poles), which are virtually maintenance-free, have a long service life, and offer low operating costs.

    ● Visual Consistency

    VTD9 circuit breaker, FTD9 load switch, and GTD isolating switch have identical external dimensions, facilitating the expansion and combination of switchgear cabinets.

    The products fully comply with IEC62271-103 (AC load switches), IEC62271-105 (AC load switch fuse combination), GB/T3804 (High Voltage AC Load Switch), and GB/T16926 (High voltage AC load switch-fuse combination device).
    Q2: What are the standard service conditions for installing this equipment?
    Normal operations require an environmental temperature of -25℃ to +40℃, altitude ≤ 1000m, daily average relative humidity ≤ 95%, monthly average relative humidity ≤ 90%, and a seismic intensity grade ≤ 8. The installation location must be free from dripping water, flammable/explosive hazards, chemical corrosive gases, and severe vibrations.
    Q3: What are the key rated electrical specifications of the switch?
    The switch features a rated voltage of 12 kV, a rated current of 630 A, operates at a rated frequency of 50/60 Hz, and has a mechanical life of 5000 operations.
    Q4: How does the miniaturized design benefit installation?
    Compared to standard air-insulated switches, this device is highly compact with a cabinet width of only 500 mm, making it ideal for space-constrained installations.
    Q5: What makes this switch low maintenance?
    The device utilizes maintenance-free vacuum poles (arc extinguishing chambers), which drastically reduce upkeep, extend service life, and lower overall operating costs.
    Q6: Can the installation orientation of the vacuum load switches be modified?
    Yes, although the provided outline dimension drawings display normal installation setups, the installation direction can also be reversed depending on requirements.
