Circuit breaker switchgear 8BT2

primarymedium-voltagevacuum

Worldwide, air-insulated technology has served as a basis for an established, reliable power supply for more than 100 year. 8BT2 air-insulated medium-voltage switchgear has been launched by Siemens on the Turkish market in 2001. Upon reflecting on the global need for a product at 36kV voltage level, manufacturing of 8BT2 has begun in Mexico too and has been adapted to the specific market requirements of the different industries and power supply companies. Saves lives • Internal arc classification: IAC A FLR ≤ 31.5 kA, 1 s • All operation only possible with closed HV-door • logical mechanical interlocking system Increases productivity • maintenance intervals of switchgear > 10 years • use of maintenance free switching devices • cable testing without isolating the busbar Saves money • maintenance intervals of switchgear > 10 years • use of maintenance free switching devices • minimized space requirements (reduced building investments) due to compact panel dimensions and pressure release system to outside Ensures peace of mind • factory assembled, type-tested switchgear acc. IEC 62271-200 • „Air“ as insulating medium always available • more than 510,000 air-insulated switchgear panels of Siemens in operation worldwide succesfully Preserves the environment • “Air” as insulating medium absolute environment friendly • local production presence in all regions • life expectancy > 30 years optimizes energy balance • materials used are fully recyclable without special knowledge
