Vacuum circuit breaker 3AV1 Blue DT

SF6insulatedshort-circuit

• World’s first 145 kV DT vacuum circuit breaker with clean air insulation • Same footprint as SF6 products Siemens Energy recognizes climate change as a challenge that is changing the world. SF6, the insulating gas utilized in most modern gas insulated equipment, boasts a global warming potential of approximately 23,500 times that of CO2. In a revolutionary development for high-voltage Siemens Energy is going “Blue”. Siemens Energy developed a vacuum technology with clean air insulation that is capable of reliable short-circuit interruption at voltage levels from 72.5-145 kV with zero CO2 emissions over the lifetime of the equipment. This solution provides the best performance addressing the highest environmental standards in place now and ones in the future. The members of our Blue circuit breaker family meet the same high-quality standards as our SF6 portfolio: • Reliable making and breaking capabilities • High-performance and maintenance-free operating mechanism • Highest availability and length of operation
