This is a single phase self-powered vacuum interrupting recloser. It can be mounted directly to the pole as a new installation or a replacement to oil filled single-phase reclosers. It can be installed separately on single phase laterals or in a group of three for a three-phase lateral circuit.
Eagle recloser drastically improves the reliability indices for utilities simply by eliminating the sustained interruptions experienced by the customers due to fuse-blowing schemes and momentary interruptions due to fuse-saving schemes. By reducing the number of truck rolls, the utility can save on operational costs and at the same time avoid revenue losses due to outages.
Eagle provides highest interrupting rating among its class with higher BIL (basic insulation level) and continuous current rating providing application from major three-phase feeder laterals to the end-of-line single phase laterals.
The voltage classes of some of these Automatic Reclosers include 6kV, 6.3kV, 6.6kV, 6.9kV, 7.2kV, 10kV, 10.5kV, 11kV, 11.5kV, 12kV, 13.2kV, 13.8kV, 14.5kV, 14.4kV, 15kV, 15.5kV, 15.6kV, 17.5kV, 20kV, 21.9kV, 22kV, 24kV, 30kV, 33kV, 33.5kV, 34.5kV, 35kV, 36kV, 38kV, 38.5kV, 40.5kV, 44kV, 45kV, 46kV, 66kV and 69kV. Rated Short-Circuit Breaking Current includes 8kA, 12.5kA, 16kA, 20kA, 25kA, 31.5kA and customization is available.
