Key attributes

Brand ROCKWILL
Model NO. Air-insulated metal-clad withdrawable Switchgear for Substations-36kV 40.5kV
Rated voltage 36kV
Rated frequency 50/60Hz
Series KYN61

Description

The KYN61 series air-insulated metal-clad withdrawable switchgear is a high-performance medium-voltage solution. Designed with a modular withdrawable module type panel, it is typically fitted with VD4-36/40.5 withdrawable vacuum circuit breakers. The system supports various functional trucks including isolation, PT, and fuse trucks. It is ideal for three-phase AC 50/60 Hz power systems, primarily serving power transmission, distribution, control, and circuit monitoring.

 

Core Product Advantages 

  • Metal-Clad Independent Compartments – Four fully metal-partitioned compartments with independent pressure relief channels, meeting IEC 62271-200:2021  internal arc protection requirements. IP4X enclosure suitable for long-term indoor use.

  • Modular Withdrawable Units with IEC Mechanical Interlocks – Interchangeable circuit breaker trolley with triple mechanical interlocks for work/test/disconnect positions, ensuring 5 anti-maloperation functions. Quick extraction and replacement; single-compartment maintenance does not affect entire busbar. Optional PT, isolating, and fuse trolleys for flexible expansion.

  • IEC-Certified VD4 Vacuum Circuit Breaker – Type-tested per  IEC 62271-100:2021, with max 100kA peak short-circuit breaking current and outstanding electrical/mechanical life. Rapid fault isolation protects downstream equipment.

  • Full-Range Electrical Parameters – Main and branch busbar continuous current: 630A–3150A; max 4s short-time withstand current: 40kA. Adapts to distribution rooms, industrial main transformers, renewable booster stations, urban grids, and more.

  • Dual Compliance (IEC & GB Standards) – Unified design meets both IEC and Chinese national standards, suitable for domestic bidding and overseas EPC projects. Secondary circuit supports AC/DC power supply, compatible with mainstream relay protection and monitoring devices.

Solutions for Switchgear

  • KYN28 Metal-Clad Switchgear Distribution Upgrade Solution for South African Mining Areas
    In typical industrial mining areas in South Africa, the power distribution system is a core safeguard for production continuity and operational safety. However, under complex operating conditions such as high dust levels, large temperature differentials, and strong impact loads, traditional distribution solutions often struggle to meet the requirements for long-term stable operation.This project addresses the distribution system upgrade and renovation of a core mining area in South Africa.

FAQ for Switchgear

How often do environmentally friendly cabinets need professional inspection?
Professional inspection is recommended annually for general scenarios. For harsh environments (humid coastal areas, high-temperature industrial parks, alpine regions), semi-annual inspection is required. The inspection content includes gas tightness test, dew point detection, insulation resistance test, short-circuit breaking performance test, and component aging inspection. Comprehensive maintenance is needed every 5 years to replace aging seals and auxiliary components.
What are the key points of daily maintenance for environmentally friendly cabinets?
Daily maintenance key points include: 1) Checking the gas pressure gauge regularly to ensure it is within the normal range (avoiding leakage); 2) Monitoring the dew point of insulating gas (especially in humid environments); 3) Inspecting the cabinet's appearance for corrosion, deformation, or damage; 4) Cleaning the cabinet's surface and ventilation ports to prevent dust accumulation; 5) Checking the operation status of auxiliary components (e.g., relays, meters) to ensure they work normally.
