Design of the system
The fluid-filled poletubes are sealed by means of a metal membrane system. This guarantees a high
level of thightness of the moving
switch elements. A fluid expansion tank with a front mounted
level monitoring window provides additional reliability.
1. Sealing
2. Jacking ring
The circuit breakers fitted in the
pole tubes conduits are based
upon vacuum interruptor technology and require no maintenance. When earthing switch and
vacuum switch chamber are not
fitted, the pole conduits are also
used as busbar taps.
3. Pole tube cover with
wave bellow
4. Drive lever
5. 4-lip sealing ring
6. Pole tube with corrugation
The offset arrangement means
connecting up the medium-voltage cables from the front is very
easy using simple-to-fit, angled
plug-in cable connectors. Surge
arresters can also be connected if
required.
Split core type current transformers can be mounted in the cable
terminal compartment.
When a fault arc occurs, pressure
relief is downwards into the false
floor.

Controls
All switching elements and pre-selectors have mutual mechanical locking, and thereby guarantee high
operational reliability. Grounding of the incoming or outgoing cable is always done via a circuit breaker, the
earth switch is therefore safe to switch. The mechanical switch position indicators and the capacitive voltage
display are idealy integrated in the mimic diagram of the front panel.

Options
Digital protective relay
Three types of digital protective relay («RN1» size) can be integrated
directly in to the switchgear housing, depending on the selection of
other options such as manual/motor operated mechanism, remote
signaling etc. This means there is no need for an additional, secondary
cabinet.
Motor drive
A motor drive can be fitted to every switching bay of the ECOS-C
switchgear unit for the purposes of remote control. The motor drive
raises the spring drive automatically as required. The manual drive
(operator key) is not affected by the motor drive. A motor drive can
also be fitted afterwards, with an operating voltage of 24 V DC, 48 V
DC or 230 V AC (other voltages are available on request).
Secondary cabinet
Heater
The ECOS-C switchgear unit can
be fitted with a secondary cabinet for the installation of manufacturer-independent protection
and measurement systems.
Secondary cabinets can be easily
removed for transportation and
installation because the internal
electrical connections are established with plug-in systems.
The ECOS-C switchgear unit is
intended for indoor use. A heater
with integrated thermostat can
be used where installation conditions have minimum temperatures below -5° C or extremely high
air humidity (> 90%). Operating
voltage is 230 V AC (others on
request).
Other options
Current converters (split core transformers) and surge arresters can be
fitted in the cable terminal compartment. Various variants for circuit
breaker remote operation are available. Auxiliary voltages 24 V DC,
48 V DC, 230 V DC and 230 V AC are available for the switch-on and
off coils, and the auxiliary contactors for the position remote indication
of switches.

Busbar bay
Circuit breaker bay
Metering bay (single unit)
A separate metering bay matching
the ECOS-C unit is available in the
same, approved housing (3-bay,
air-insulated).
Installation
Floor openings
A gap of at least 50 mm on the sides and 15 mm at the back must
be left between the ECOS-C medium-voltage switchgear unit and the
wall. For maintenance reasons, we recommend a distance of
100 mm from the unit to the building wall (on the sides as well as
towards the rear). Appropriate openings must be provided because
pressure is relieved downwards on the ECOS-C when a fault occurs.
Appropriate floor depending of the number of bays or units combined.
The floor recess is 2 x 65 mm
shorter than the width of the
system. The depth of the floor
recess for all ECOS-C switchgear
units is 230 mm.

What does SF6 -free mean?
In 1997, SF6 has been put on the Kyoto list of substances of
which the use and emission should be minimized. SF6 is the
most potent greenhouse gas currently known: 1 kg contributes
as much to global warming as 23,900 kg of CO2. In the ECOS
medium-voltage systems of Cellpack Power Systems AG, a fireproof, eco-friendly and synthetic ester-based dielectric insulating
fluid, MIDEL 7131, is used as external insulation of the switching
chamber and busbar system.
What is SWISS LABEL?
SWISS LABEL is a society for the promotion of Swiss products and
services. The SWISS LABEL association is concerned essentially
with brand and label care in the broadest sense.
The mark may be claimed only for products that have been
manufactured entirely in Switzerland or worked or processed in
Switzerland to a certain extent. The Swiss portion of a product
must currently be at least 70%.
