VRuptS
Main Features
CO7 Technologies has designed the VRuptS polymer-insulated cutout with a hydrophobic silicone rubber insulator for lighter weight, longer life and higher resistance to mechanical failure, especially in harsh climates.
​
-
High shock resistance
-
Low weight (from 3 to 10 times lower with respect to the porcelain cut-out)
-
High resistance in cold environments (low temperature)
-
High resistance in highly polluted environments
-
High resistance against ultraviolet radiations
-
High arc resistance
-
Greater dispersion distance with the same spark gaps
-
Greater hydrophobicity and corrosion resistance properties that keep the surfaces of the insulators clean
​
The V-RuptS has been design and manufactured following ANSI C37.42 “Specification for Distribution Cutouts and Fuse Links”.
The V-RuptS cutout is designed to be fuseholder interchangeable with polymer cutouts manufactured by S & C Electric Co. (Type XS), A.B. Chance Co. (Type C) and ABB (Type ICX).
Design & Specifications
1. Upper support
Vertical spring contact with Self centered feature.
2. Standard cap
Especially design to relief the pressure
Easily replaceable
High Strength U''V'' resistant fuse tube
Designed to handle the pressure
Positive lever operated latch prevents opening from vibration or violent impact to the pole or the use of cover-up equipment
3. steel hook
-
For loadbreak tools like the LoadBuster
5. Polymer Insulator
The VRuptS uses a proprietary Enhanced Silicone Polymer (ESP) material that is lighter and provides exceptional resistance to environmental factors, ensuring long-lasting durability and reliability.
4. Fuse tentioning device
-
Keeps the fuse link tentioned, centered and helps on its expulsion
Batôn
This robust component is engineered to provide reliable performance and enhanced safety features. The VRuptS baton measures 307.98 mm in length, with a radius of 25.4 mm on the outside and 12.7 mm on the inside.
This compact and lightweight design is a result of our commitment to innovation, making the VRuptS easier to handle and install.
Constructed from fiberglass, the baton's filament-wound tubing incorporates an arc-extinguishing liner for improved safety during operation. The casting parts are made of a bronze alloy, contributing to the baton's durability and electrical conductivity. One of the key features of the VRuptS baton is its ability to support the fuse and make the connection between the upper and lower contacts to close the electrical circuit. This robust design ensures a secure and reliable connection, even in the most demanding conditions.
By leveraging our extensive experience in designing, assembling, and testing polymer-based cutouts in North America, we have engineered the VRuptS baton to deliver exceptional performance and reliability.
The VRuptS is also designed to be interchangeable with leading manufacturers' fault interrupters, offering our customers greater flexibility and compatibility.
