Facts about VA
Schneider Electric has extensive experience in MV vacuum switching technology. The VA breakers feature a time-tested reliable design. It is suitable for new and retrofit projects and saves space due to its compact design.
VXA or VXB vacuum Circuit Breakers (single and two-pole units respectively) are used in railway applications. Three pole vacuum CB VXC, designed for a particularly high number of mechanical and electrical switching operations, are suitable for operating electric melting furnaces.
All vacuum circuit-breakers can be supplied with reclosing facility (KU).
