Siemens · 2009
3WL Air Circuit Breakers/Non-Automatic Air Circuit Breakers up to 6300 A (AC)
General data
1) Opening time on instantaneous short-circuit release with
ETU15B = 85 ms.
2) Make-time through closing solenoid for synchronization purposes
(short-time excited) 50 ms.
3) Maintenance means: replace main contact elements and arc chutes (see
Operating Manual).
4) Use of releases from –20 °C.
5) ETU76B with graphics display can be used up to max. 55 °C.
