Pristine-Schneider Electric make (PSLBS type) load break switch & load break switch fuse unit panels are available in 12kV, 24 kV & 36kV voltage class. The Schneider Electric groups experience extends over 30 years in SF6 technology for Medium Voltage products. This gives you the advantage of unique experience, that of a world leader, with over 1,600,000 SF6 Medium Voltage units installed throughout the world.
Advantages of load break switch & switch fuse units Compact in size and weights Reduce Maintenance
l The active parts (breaking and earthing) are integrated in an SF6-filled, sealed for life unit. l The control mechanisms, are intented to function with reduced maintenance under normal operating conditions l Enhanced electrical endurance when breaking.
Switchgear status indicator: Fitted directly to the drive shaft, these five are definite indication of the contacts position.
Safe to Operate
Gas tightness l The three rotating contacts are placed in an enclosure filled with gas to a relative pressure of 0.4 bar (400hPa) for LBS 24kV and 1.5 bar (1500 hPa) for LBS 36kV. l It satisfies sealed pressure system requirements and seal tightness is always factory checked.
Operating lever: This is designed with an anti-reflex device that stop any attempt to re-open the device immediately after closing the switch or earthing the switch.
Mechanical and electrical controls are side by side on the front facia on a panel including the schematic diagram indicating the devices status (closed, open, earthed) :
The switch may be in one of three positions: closed, open, or earthed, representing a natural interlocking system that prevents incorrect operation. Moving contact rotation is driven by a fast acting mechanism that is independent of the action of the operator. ldevice combines the breaking and disconnection The functions. learthing switch placed in the SF6 has a shortThe circuit making capacity, in compliance with standards. laccidental over pressures are eliminated by the Any opening of the safety membrane, in which case the gas is directed toward the back of the unit, away from the operator.
Operating safety
Motorises closing / opening mechanism (optional ) Shunt trip for opening (Optional) Voltage presence indicator (Optional ) This device has intergrated VPIS (Voltage Presence Indicating System) type lights, in conformity with IEC standard 61958, enabling the presence (or absence) of voltage to be checked on the cables. Insensitivity to the environment An Internal sealed enclosure, contains the active parts of the switch. It is filled with SF6 in accordance with the definitions in IEC recommendation 62271-103 for sealed pressure systems. Sealing is systematically checked in the factory. Parts are designed in order to obtain optimum electrical field distribution. LBS Conforms to standard IEC 62271-103
