Description:

Key Features & Benefits

3-Position Operation (On/Off/Ground)

Integrates three critical functions—load switching, isolation, and safety grounding—in a single compact unit, eliminating the need for separate grounding switches and simplifying RMU design.

Fully Sealed SF₆ Insulation & Arc Extinction

The entire active part is enclosed in an epoxy resin-sealed SF₆ gas chamber, leveraging SF₆’s superior insulation and arc-quenching properties to ensure stable operation in harsh environments (high humidity, dust, altitude, and condensation) with minimal maintenance.

High Compatibility with Global Brands

Engineered for seamless replacement and retrofitting of Schneider, ABB, Siemens and other international brand RMU switch units, making it ideal for grid modernization and old equipment upgrades.

Compact & Space-Saving Design

Integrated modular structure reduces the overall size of the ring main unit, saving valuable substation space while maintaining full electrical performance.

Built-In SF₆ Gas Density Monitoring

Equipped with a temperature-compensated SF₆ gas density gauge for real-time pressure monitoring, with clear color-coded zones (green = normal, red = alarm) to prevent gas leakage risks.

Enhanced Safety & Anti-Misoperation

Mechanical interlocking between the 3 positions prevents incorrect operation, ensuring maximum safety for maintenance personnel and grid reliability.
