Description

Features

The VJY1 indoor AC vacuum circuit breaker, the nylon enclosed column is adapted in the arc chute. Comparing with traditional air insulated column, the breaker has following advantages: 

  1. the technical performance of solid insulation embedded column is higher than GB/DL Standards.

  2. Easy structure design, less dismountable components, highly reliable.

  3. Advanced and energy-saving manufacture technologies have been adapted, light and eco-friendly material.

  4. New generation insulating material has been adapted; Extremely high insulation ability.

  5. Extremely high mechanical strength, the longitudinal pulling force can reach to 10000N. 

  6. Adapting the latest and newest automation molding technology (APG Molding Technology), which is highly stable and reliable.

  7. Safe and Reliable, maintenance-free.


Mechanical Features

  1. The storage transmission of VJY1 is gear transmission; and the release device is swing-type leverage. The common structure of VS1 is very loose. The release device move radially, which requires higher accuracy, otherwise, there are some possibilities of stuck, open failure and early release.   

  2. Due to the overall modular layout, the common vacuum breaker adapted Four-link Structure. The closing energy is transmitted to the spindle arm through four-link structure. There are many components of four-link transmission, especially the two pieces of vertical boards. There are accuracy errors existing in components processing and assembling, therefore, some components must be broken after a period of mechanical endurance. The more the components are, the more the hidden dangers are. The VJY1 is with tight structure, which is highly reliable.

  3. According to the tests making by our company, the mechanical endurance of VJY1 can be more than 20000 or 30000 times, which is more than VS1’s.
