Outdoor Live tank SF6 gas circuit breaker 72.5kV

  • Outdoor Live tank SF6 gas circuit breaker 72.5kV

Key attributes

Brand ROCKWILL
Series RHB
Rated voltage 72.5kV
Rated current up to 4000A
Rated peak withstand current up to 125kA
Rated frequency 50/60

Description

Adopting self-blast arc extinguishing principle and three-phase post porcelain insulator structure, the breaker is equipped with a CT-type spring operating mechanism with three-pole linked operation. It uses SF₆ gas for full-phase insulation and arc quenching, fitted with pointer-type density relay for real-time SF₆ pressure and density monitoring.
Simple structure, low operating power, low noise, high stability and easy installation. Compliant with IEC / CEI / GB / JB / DL standards, and supports customized manufacturing.

Main Features

  • Self-blast arc extinguishing design reduces operating work and improves mechanical efficiency
  • High breaking performance: rated current up to 5500A, short-circuit breaking current up to 50kA
  • Electrical endurance: 50kA × 21 times breaking capacity; mechanical life up to 10,000 times
  • Precise sealing: annual SF₆ leakage rate ≤ 0.5%
  • Strong environmental adaptability, applicable for Class IV polluted areas and extreme cold climate
  • Optional porcelain column type / handcart type structure
  • Real-time gas density monitoring ensures safe and stable operation

FAQ for SF6 circuit breaker

Q: What are the differences between this product and similar products from ABB/Siemens?
A:

ABB’s high-voltage live-tank vacuum breakers are reliable but costly with long lead times. Hitachi Energy is mature yet lacks local high-voltage track records and smart features. Schneider Electric excels in 40.5kV distribution but is limited in voltage range and extreme performance. In contrast, Rockwill offers up to 363kV SF₆-free vacuum solutions with fast local service and spare parts delivery. Featuring robust mechanisms, full smart functions, and superior resistance to extreme cold, heavy salt fog, and short-circuit currents, our breakers ensure long maintenance-free service and lower LCC.

Q:Can Rockwill custom-engineer or modify Live tank Vacuum circuit breaker specifications to meet project-specific requirements?

A:
Rockwill provides comprehensive customized design and parameter modification for live tank vacuum circuit breakers to meet diverse project requirements. Backed by our professional R&D team, we flexibly adjust product structures, technical parameters and environmental adaptability, delivering exclusive tailored solutions in line with various on-site conditions and project standards.

Q: Where is the arc extinguishing chamber located in a live tank breaker versus a dead tank breaker?
A:

In a live tank breaker, the arc chamber is mounted at the top or side of the column, exposed to ambient air. In a dead tank breaker, the arc chamber is placed inside the metal tank, fully sealed.
