Core Product Features
1. Excellent Arc Extinction, Stable and Controllable
The 7.2KV Vacuum Contactor is equipped with a self-developed optimized vacuum interrupter, using a single-stage sealing process, with vacuum degree strictly controlled within 1.33×10⁻³Pa. High-purity Cu-Cr contacts achieve arc-free switching, eliminating the risk of arc re-ignition. It boasts an electrical life of 250,000 cycles under AC-3 conditions and 100,000 cycles under AC-4 conditions. After millions of operation tests and accelerated aging tests, it has achieved over 15 years of fault-free operation in the field, with a failure rate below 0.007%.
2. Advanced Mechanism, Suitable for High Frequency
The 7.2KV Vacuum Contactor adopts an optimized bistable MAC permanent magnet drive mechanism, supporting wide voltage input of AC120V/220V. Closing time is ≤200ms, and opening time is as fast as ≤60ms, featuring multiple safety functions and multi-mode control. Mechanical life of up to 1 million cycles, maintenance-free within 10,000 operations, precisely suited for high-frequency start-stop scenarios in industrial applications.
3. Robust Insulation and Wide Adaptability
The sealed pole is integrally encapsulated with epoxy resin APG, offering excellent resistance to pollution and condensation, suitable for IV-level pollution environments. It can operate stably in environments ranging from -45℃ to +85℃, at altitudes up to 4000 meters, and in high salt spray and strong electromagnetic interference scenarios, with electromagnetic interference resistance up to EMC Class 4.
4. Easy Installation and Maintenance, Controllable Costs
Modular design is compatible with mainstream switchgear, and installation and maintenance can be completed by a single person using conventional tools. The fully enclosed structure requires no special maintenance for 30 years, reducing operation and maintenance costs by more than 85% compared to traditional equipment. When paired with a dedicated fuse, it can be adapted to 1000 MVA fault circuits.
5. Intelligent Expansion and Environmental Compliance
