Universal applications. Power stations Transformer substations Chemicals industry Steel industry Automobile industry Airport power supply Building power supply
The VM1 vacuum circuitbreaker finds its universal range of applications throughout the chain from power generation in power stations through controlled distribution in transformer substations to the final consumer, such as the chemicals industry, steel industry, automobile industry, airport and building power supply.
New pole part design. In the VM1 circuit-breaker, pole parts in which the maintenance-free vacuum interrupter forms a positive unit together with the entire pole part are used for the first time. This is achieved by a specially developed embedding technology in which the vacuum interrupter is directly potted in epoxy resin to form a pole part. External influences on the switching element are therefore extensively precluded.

The sum of the benefits. Few individual parts Simple mechanical sequences Extremely high reliability High quality standard Extremely long life Maintenance-free
Magnetic actuator The heart of the electromagnetically operated mechanism with the switching, latching and release functions. Electronic controller Electronic control of release, operating motion, energy storage and functional reliability.
Capacitor Electrical energy store for a complete autoreclosing cycle. Sensor Non-contact detection of switch position.
Lever shaft The only mechanical component for force transmission from the magnet armature to the vacuum interrupter.

The new operating mechanism technology. Force generation by magnetic actuator Latching by magnetic actuator Release by magnetic actuator No parts subject to wear Maintenance-free as a standard feature
The innovative mechanism concept facilitates a drastic reduction in the number of parts and complete freedom from maintenance.

The control module with sensors. EMC proofing by electrical decoupling Self-monitoring with fault signalling Independent of auxiliary power supply Low energy consumption on recharging of the capacitor Sensor detection of the mechanical switch position Monitoring of all switching functions
The complete electrical isolation from the outside also contributes. For an important electronic control system to have a watchdog function with fault signalling is nowadays a matter of course. The concept of a circuit-breaker control system without any auxiliary switches makes use of sensors to detect the mechanical limit positions. The inductive proximity sensors employed
have proven their worth for these functions in practice, and are of course also included in the self-monitoring system. All necessary application-specific input and output signals are independent of the type of auxiliary voltage in accordance with the rest of the system, and are integrated by plug-in technology.
The electronic controller with sensors monitors all the functions of the circuitbreaker and its own functional reliability.
