Controlled Power HVF series vacuum circuit breakers: Three pole drawout units for use in 38Kv switchgear.

Controlled Power has manufactured 38Kv switchgear since 1982. Hundreds of 38Kv circuit breakers are in reliable operation in transit, utility, and industrial applications. The breakers, including vacuum interrupters, are designed and manufactured with advanced vacuum technology and have been tested according to the latest version of ANSI Standards in ISO 9001 certified facilities. The circuit breakers are available in 1200A, 2000A, 2500A, and 3000A continuous ratings. No fan cooling is required for high continuous current ratings. The breakers are constantly being improved to satisfy all demands of the market.

HIGH RELIABILITY DURING LONG LIFE TIME


! ! ! Rugged in construction and employing a minimum of moving parts, the breaker operating mechanism features reduced maintenance requirements while providing high mechanical reliability and long life time. Designed with advanced vacuum technology, the vacuum interrupters retain high and reliable switching capability and high dielectric strength with only a small contact gap. The contact resistance is not affected significantly by switching operations and remains constant with the help of the contact pressure applied. The circuit breakers require little maintenance. In fact, only the parts subject to normal wear and aging need be serviced to ensure fully reliable operation. This involves simple jobs to be carried out by the customer's personnel, short servicing times and corresponding downtimes, and also long operation periods between services. Normal maintenance is confined to lubricating the operating mechanism. The vacuum interrupters and their supports need not be serviced. The drawout vacuum breaker has a precision racking mechanism to assure proper alignment during the insertion operation. ANSI standard safety interlocks are provided. The circuit breaker utilizes self-aligning, direct coupling secondary disconnect blocks. The cubicle includes grounded metal shutters. Several types of optional parts such as undervoltage release, second trip coil and electrical lockout are available upon request. Optional 40 Ka rating is available.

Summary of Operation
11-1 11-2 11-3

1. Charging
When the charging mechanism (11) is activated by hand or a motor(31), the charging shaft(11-1) of the mechanism turns by the gears and the driver(11-2) so that the closing spring is tensioned. When the closing spring is fully tensioned, the closing pawl(11-3) causes the closing spring to be latched.

2. Closing
When the closing signal is applied, the closing spring is unlatched by the activation of the closing pawl. Energy is released from the discharging of the closing spring and the coupling bar is powerfully pushed down via the charging shaft and the cam (11-1). Consequently, the breaker shaft is turned until the moving contact is fully closed and latched by the trip pawl (25-1). At the same time, the contact pressure spring is compressed to insure sufficient contact pressure on the moving contact while the breaker is in the closed position, and the tripping spring (12) is compressed for the consequent opening operation.

RECHARGING

3. Recharging
After the closing operation, the closing spring can be immediately recharged by a motor or by hand so that the breaker will immediately reclose if the closing signal is applied.

4. Opening
When opening signal is applied, the tripping spring is unlatched by activation of the trip pawl, and the breaker shaft is returned to the open position.
