EVR Breaker - Model 0

Benefits
High-speed operation Interrupting time of 3 cycles or less Long life Hermetically sealed interrupters protect contacts from corroding elements and contamination. Ease of maintenance Interrupter assemblies and contact wear indicators accessible via a bolted panel. Reliability A minimum of moving parts on the motor-driven, spring-charged Type RI mechanism. Durability Robust design tested to the highest IBC-2000 seismic standard. Other seismic standards may be evaluated upon request. Flexibility Standard adjustable heights in 3 increments. Component Commonality Utilizes Type RI operating mechanism / coils / motor, which are commonly used among many Square D medium voltage circuit breakers.

EVR Breaker - Model 1

Standard Features
Window for viewing status indicators and operation counter. Ground pads located on both sides of breaker. A #4 cable connects from the roof and HV/LV compartment to the ground pads to insure a solidly grounded enclosure. Painted adjustable legs with galvanized base channels. All external hardware is stainless steel. Optimized relay panel (32 5/8 W x 33 7/8 H) for instrumentation (model 1 only). 12 pole auxiliary switch (6 a & 6 b contacts), latch check switch and emergency cutout switch standard. All outer doors latch open at approximately 120 degrees. Type RI mechanism with integral manual charging handle.
