ZN63(VS1-12C)-12C indoor AC vacuum circuit breaker is suitable for rated voltage zone 12 kV, frequency 50Hz three-phase power system, as a protection and control appliances, due to the special advantages of the vacuum circuit breaker, especially suitable for rated current frequency operation, or multiple open current places.
ZN63(VS1)-12C indoor AC vacuum circuit breaker adopts fixed installation, mainly used for fixed switchgear, the circuit breaker can be used alone, but also can be used for ring network power supply, box transformer or various non-standard power supply systems.


The product has the advantages of compact and novel structure, reliable insulation, no pollution, no explosion risk, stable performance, high technical parameters, long maintenance cycle, complete operation functions and so on. The main part of the circuit breaker is arranged in the insulation cylinder made of epoxy resin cast by APG process. This structure can effectively prevent the influence of external factors including external force impact and dirty environment on the vacuum arc extinguishing chamber. And the main insulation cylinder with internal and external skirt, creepage ratio exceeds the national standard requirements, has a very high insulation performance, adapt to various harsh environments. The circuit breaker adopts the integrated design of the operating mechanism and the circuit breaker body, the front and back arrangement, the operating mechanism is specially optimized design, the transmission efficiency is high, the mechanical characteristics are stable, and the life span is more than 20,000 times. The circuit breaker can be used as a fixed installation unit, or a special propulsion mechanism to form a handcart unit, and can be flexibly matched with various domestic complete sets of equipment. It has become the absolute mainstream product of 12kV vacuum circuit breaker in China.
It is equipped with a dedicated driving mechanism, allowing it to be used as a trolley unit for easy operation within switchgear.
It includes a reliable interlocking unit to provide “five-prevention” protection functions, enhancing safety during operation.
