3.Key Features & Benefits
1. Built for Harsh Environments
The LW25’s porcelain housing resists corrosion, and temperature swings (-30°C to 50°C), making it ideal for coastal, desert, or industrial zones.
2. Low Maintenance, High Reliability
With self-charging mechanisms and a modular design, inspection intervals extend up to 25 years, reducing downtime and lifecycle costs.
3. Smart Grid Ready
Integrates with SCADA systems for real-time monitoring of SF6 gas pressure, contact wear, and operation cycles.
4. Eco-Friendly Performance
SF6 gas management minimizes leakage risks, aligning with global sustainability goals.
4.Real-World Applications
Utility Grids
- Replace outdated breakers in 220kV+ substations.
- Handle fault currents up to 50kA for urban grid resilience.
Mining & Oil/Gas
- Explosion-proof variants (ATEX/IECEx) for hazardous zones.
- Withstand dust, humidity, and vibration in remote sites.
Renewable Energy Farms
- LW25□-126 model manages capacitor/reactor switching in solar/wind farms.
- Fast response (<2 cycles) stabilizes fluctuating power inputs.
5.How It Works?
The LW25 Outdoor Porcelain Type SF6 Circuit Breaker uses SF6 gas to extinguish arcs during fault interruption. Its triple-break porcelain interrupters ensure rapid dielectric recovery, while the spring/hydraulic mechanisms provide consistent opening/closing force. The modular design allows easy phase-segregated maintenance without full shutdowns.
