11kV - 33kV 600 Amp Air Break Switch
Unitised Rocking Post Isolator --- ED33V4
|
| |
|
 |
 |
 |
|
The construction of our Air Break Switches
consists of a rigid spar frame with removable poles. The rigidity in the
high strength spar prevents flexing in the switch frame, providing reliable
long term contact alignment.
Each switch is supplied partially assembled and factory set up for final
assembly and installation on site and also fitted with lifting eyes to
assist with easy installation.
Our Factory-tested design has undergone 2000+ operations without requiring
re-adjustment of the contact assemblies or bearing points. The need to
regularly re-adjust contact alignments has been eliminated. |

11kV Air Break Switch
|
33kV Load Break Switch
|
|
| The air break switches can be fully welded
or have adjustable phase poles.
We can supply voltage ratings of 11kV, 22kV or 33kV, the option to have
flickers is rated at 600amp with optional load breaks.
We manufacture our ABS's to the customers requirements if you require
them to be longer, shorter, vertical or any other configuration, please
contact us to discuss. |

Frame Construction
High Strength Spar (100x100x3mm)
|
Range of options to date include :
• Various spar lengths
• Various spar mounting hole configurations
• Various phase pole spacing
• Special earthing tags
• Special mounting feet/brackets
• Lifting lugs
• Extended axle
• Vertical mount
• Special handle design
• Line strain point on end of pole base
• Fuse mounting brackets
Eliminates flexing due to pole movement or cross arm warping.
Enables line termination through dead end mounted directly onto spar.
Provides sufficient strength to enable ABS to be mounted directly to the pole as a cross-arm. |
Pole Construction
Strong Switch Pole Base (75x40mm)
|
Eliminates the need to regularly re-adjust contact alignment.
Strong enough to support line strain point or additional equipment mounting.
