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.
