Center-Break Disconnectors TYPE SSBII
Pantograph Disconnectors TYPE GSSB
The horizontal double-break disconnector consists of three poles. Each pole consists of a frame, two supporting insulators at each end and one rotating insulator in the centre, on which the main blade is mounted.
The frame is made of a square tube in which in the center the bearing housing and the turnable are installed.
The turnable is supported by two roller bearings. The bearing housing is sealed and filled up with grease, to ensure a long lifetime.
All steel parts of the disconnector are hot dip galvanized.
The disconnectors can be equipped with insulators in accordance with IEC or ANSI specifications.
The Disconnectors and/or earthing switches can be single-pole or three-pole operated by means of a motor-operated drive mechanism or a manual-operated drive mechanism. In case only one drive mechanism is used for three-pole operation, the poles are interconnected by means of adjustable coupling rods. The drive mechanism also houses the auxilliary contacts for position indication.
The main blade consists of two fixed contracts, mounted on the supporting insulators, and a moving blade mounted on the rotating insulator. The main contracts are installed inside the main blade. They are made of copper, with a silver-plated surface.
Each contact finger is provided with stainless steel springs to ensure reliable contact pressure.
The contacts are self-cleansing, which makes the disconnector suitable for installation in areas with severe climatic conditions.
Depending on the voltage rating, anticorona shields will be provided.
HAPAM disconnectors may be equipped with earthing switches, which can be built on to the right hand side and/or to the left hand side. The earthing switch consists of an aluminum tube, provided with silver-plated contacts at both ends.
The disconnectors and earthing switches are designed and tested in accordance with latest IEC specifications. HAPAM maintains a quality assurance system according to ISO 9001, certified by KEMA.
The disconnectors and earthing switches supplied by HAPAM are designed so as to ensure that they are virtually maintenance free. However, to warrant a long and trouble-free service period we advice that a visual inspection of the contacts and bearing points be carried out at regular intervals.
The disconnectors and earthing switches are pre-assembled and adjusted in our works as complete as possible.
The construction is designed so that all disconnectors can be installed and adjusted at site very easily, without the need of any special tools. HAPAM provides clear installation instructions and assembly drawings.
