Product Detail

Description:

UniSec Air is a medium voltage switchgear designed for secondary distribution up to 24kV, 630A, 20kA. It contains GSec Air, three-position load break switch or disconnector and earthing switch. This new component has a shunt vacuum interrupter for breaking capacity, dry air as the insulation medium, and a global warming potential (GWP) of zero. The switchgear also contains a vacuum circuit breaker and is fully compliant with IEC standards and the U F-gas regulation (EU) 2024 / 573. 
The switchgear is based on a highly flexible and modular  concept with standardized solutions that can be  readily configured to meet the specific needs of each application. UniSec Air is fully tested according to IEC standard 62271-200. 
UniSec Air is internal arc classified, IAC A FLR up to 20 kA, assuring safe operations for technicians when standing in  front of the switchgear. Robust control and protection, metering, monitoring, and diagnostics suitable for various applications are also available. 
UniSec Air is designed with a refined interface and with  the same footprint, operations, and backward compatibility as the original UniSec switchgear,facilitating integration into existing systems and extensions of the installed base.

Customer benefits:

FAQ
Q: What standards and certifications that ABB’s medium voltage switchgear products comply with?
A: Our medium voltage switchgear products comply with international standards such as IEC 62271, GOST, GB/DL. They are also certified by leading industry bodies to ensure the highest levels of safety and performance. ABB also offers medium voltage switchgear products for ANSI standards.
Q: What’s the difference in the circuit breaker for air-insulated vs gas-insulated?
A: Air-insulated switchgear circuit breaker is typically removable or withdrawable. The circuit breaker is based on vacuum circuit technology. In the gas-insulated, it is fixed mounted. The function of withdraw is provided by a separate disconnecting switch. Typically, a three-position switch with connected, disconnected, and ready-to-earth position.

1. Detection Technology for Electric Vehicle Charging PilesEV charging piles are primarily divided into two categories:DC charging pilesandAC charging piles. Let's start with DC charging piles: they communicate with the EV's battery management system (BMS) and directly charge the power battery through the DC charging interface. AC charging piles, on the other hand, rely on the EV's AC charging interface and use the vehicle-mounted charger to complete the charging process. These two types of char
