3.Key Features & Advantages

1. Built to Withstand Extreme Conditions

The product uses hot-dip galvanized components and sealed transmission mechanisms to resist corrosion in coastal or high-humidity areas. Its aluminum alloy profile enhances heat dissipation, while stainless steel contact springs maintain stable conductivity during frequent operations.

2. Maintenance-Free Operation

With a stainless steel pin/bushing system and externally compressed contact springs, the GW5 requires minimal upkeep. The horizontal pantograph design reduces friction during switching, extending service intervals by 40% compared to traditional models.

3. Customizable for Your Grid Needs

Choose from Arctic variants (-60°C operation), compact models for urban substations, or IoT-enabled versions with predictive maintenance sensors. All GW5 switches support modular retrofitting into existing infrastructure.

4.Where It's Used?

 

Be used in a wide range of industries.

 

Industrial Plants

Industrial Plants

Eliminate power factor penalties in CNC machines and assembly lines while handling surge currents up to 100x rated capacity.

Solar/Wind Farms

Substation

Stabilizes substation voltage against harmonics and intermittent generation from renewable inverters.

Commercial Buildings

Commercial Buildings

Retrofit aging systems in hospitals or malls with silent (<45dB), flame-retardant capacitors that meet NFPA 70 fire codes.

 

5.How It Works?

The GW5’s dual-break isolation system creates two visible gaps when open, providing clear safety confirmation. Its pantograph mechanism moves horizontally to minimize arcing, while optional grounding switches interlock with main blades to prevent accidental activation during maintenance.

8.FAQs

1. What standards does the GW5 comply with?

It meets IEC 62271-102 for disconnectors and IEEE C37.32 for switchgear design, ensuring global grid compatibility.

2. How often does the GW5 require maintenance?

Routine inspections every 5 years are recommended. Sealed mechanisms and corrosion-resistant materials reduce hands-on upkeep.

3. Can it operate in icy conditions?

Yes. The GW5-Arctic variant includes heated mechanisms to prevent ice buildup on contacts.

4. Is retrofitting possible without structural changes?

Absolutely. The GW5-Compact model fits 30% smaller spaces, ideal for upgrading aging substations.

5. What coatings protect against corrosion?

Hot-dip galvanization (85μm thickness) and stainless steel transmission parts ensure 30+ years in coastal environments.
