Overview
The ZW20-12F(M) outdoor high-voltage intelligent (permanent magnet) vacuum circuit breaker is an outdoor high-voltage switchgear with a rated voltage of 12kV and a three-phase AC frequency of 50/60Hz. It is mainly used for breaking and closing load current, overload current, and short-circuit current in power systems.
Suitable for protection and control in substations, industrial and mining enterprises, and urban and rural power distribution networks, especially suitable for locations with frequent operations and urban power distribution automation networks. This product, when used with a controller, meets the requirements of power distribution automation systems and reliably and effectively performs the functions of a traditional recloser. It adopts a mature box-type sealed structure with excellent sealing performance, making it unaffected by external environmental factors and a maintenance-free product. Its spring-operated or permanent magnet operating mechanism offers high reliability, making it an excellent choice for pole-mounted circuit breakers.
