HXGN15‑12(SF6) 12kV Unit‑Type AC Metal‑Enclosed SF6 Ring Main Unit RMU
HXGN15‑12(SF6) unit‑type AC metal‑enclosed ring main unit (RMU) is a new‑generation high‑voltage switchgear. Developed on the basis of international advanced technology, it is specially designed for rural power‑grid construction and urban network renovation projects. All technical indicators meet IEC 62271‑200:2003 and GB 3906 standards.
The main switch, operating mechanism and core components can adopt original HAD/US‑series SF6 load‑switch modules.
The cabinet frame is assembled by CNC‑machined steel plates with riveted structure, reaching IP3X protection rating. Equipped with robust mechanical interlock system to prevent mis‑operation.
This ring‑main‑unit features small footprint, light weight, neat appearance, convenient operation, long service life, excellent electrical parameters, zero pollution and low‑maintenance requirements.
It is applied in 50Hz, 12kV AC power‑distribution networks, acting as power receiving & distribution equipment, with SF6 gas‑insulated load switch as its primary switching component.
