Ideal for three-phase AC systems operating at 50/60Hz and 12KV, this product is essential for control and protection across electrical infrastructures in sectors such as industrial and mining operations, photovoltaic and wind power generation, residential developments, and urban complexes. As a leading supplier based in China, our factory ensures high-quality manufacturing and innovative solutions to meet your power system needs.

    Detail introduction
    Due to the special advantages of vacuum circuit breakers, they are particularly suitable for frequent operations that require a rated working current, or for places where short-circuit currents are broken multiple times. The three poles of this circuit breaker are longitudinally fixed on the side mounted chassis, including isolation switches, circuit breakers, earthing switches, and operating mechanisms, forming a side mounted structure. Due to its characteristics of miniaturization, integration, modularization, low maintenance, and consistent appearance, it is particularly suitable for installation in confined spaces such as distribution rooms, prefabricated substations, underearth garages, etc.

    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 (circuit breaker) 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.
