Construction and Operation Principle
2.2. Interrupter
The puffer type interrupter is housed in the grounded tank where SF6 gas at 0.6 MPa is sealed. In the
lower part of the tank, the link mechanism is also housed to operate the interrupter. (Figure 5.2)
WARNING
・ Open the front cover of the operating equipment part only when necessary. In particular, the link
mechanism instantaneously starts to operate during circuit breaker operation so that touching it is
very dangerous.
・ During work with the front cover of the operating equipment part opened, use great care to prevent
the cover from being opened/closed by a gust of window.
・ Do not touch the connection terminals in the operating equipment part, to which a voltage is
constantly applied to operate each device. Prior to work, always verify that the power supply is
securely cut off.
・ When you operate CB very frequently for testing purpose (more than 10 times with frequency once
3-minutes or more), open the front cover for radiation of motor.
The operating equipment uses the powered spring operation method for both making and tripping. The
making spring is immediately energized by the motor upon completion of the making operation. The
breaking spring is energized by the energy of the making spring at the same time as the making operation.
The operating equipment (Figure 5.5) contains the making spring (405), breaking spring (406), making hook
(420), tripping hook (423).
On the surface of the front cover are installed the "OPEN"/"CLOSED" indicator, making spring
"Charged"/"Discharged" indicator, operation counter, and the making button (436) and tripping button (435)
for manual operation.

Construction and Operation Principle
WARNING
・ Discharging SF6 gas inside a closed room for servicing or other purposes would cause an oxygen
deficiency (with an oxygen concentration of no more than 18%). Therefore be sure to collect all such
gas in a gas handling equipment. Heavier than air, this gas may accumulate underground or in a pit.
Therefore ventilate the room well and measure its oxygen concentration.
・ If SF6 gas (which is active and harmful to the human body) is to be recovered after a ground fault or a
short, be sure to recover it in a gas handling equipment charged with adsorbent.
(1) (A) The various experiments conducted by the company on the toxicity of SF6 gas by using white
rabbits and mice reveal that SF6 gas is normally inactive and physiologically harmless, thus being
considered nontoxic. Regulations regarding toxicity tests require that test mice withstand a mixture
of 75% SF6 gas and 25% oxygen for 14 to 16 hours without adverse effect.
(B) Products of decomposition (such as HF, SF4, CuF2, and WF6) resulting from an arc discharge are
harmful. To minimize these products, Japan AE Power Systems keeps the water content of the
circuit breakers at no more than 150vol ppm (and the water content of the atmosphere at about
2,000vol ppm ) so that the products of decomposition can be adsorbed by adsorbents (active
alumina and synthetic zeolite). (Keep the water content of the GIS except GCB at no more than 500
vol ppm .)
After a large-current shutdown, the container in the tank is found to contain small quantities of
sulfides and fluorides. But no reports have so far been issued to indicate that these pulverized
substances caused any harm to the human body. However, just in case, workers are recommended
to wear masks and gloves in conducting a minute check or change contacts. It is also
recommended to change adsorbent cartridges when conducting any check.
(2) SF6 gas is about 5.5 times as heavy as air and colorless, odorless, and inactive. When handling it,
therefore, ventilate the room well and avoid as far as possible handling it in a closed room or pit. Should
much SF6 gas flow out, it might accumulate in the bottom layer, which might decline greatly in oxygen
content. Discharging much SF6 gas in a small room or poorly-ventilated place for servicing or other
purposes might cause an oxygen deficiency. Take enough care in handling it.

Construction and Operation Principle
1. When installing this circuit breaker, fill with SF6 gas of a pressure (SF6 gas pressure in
the gas tank of the interrupter when the circuit breaker is filled with the SF6 gas) within
the range of 0.58 to 0.62 MPa when converted at 20 deg.C as shown by the shaded
portion in Figure 5.10. For temperature and pressure conversion, see Figure 5.10.
2. For gas temperature measurement, apply putty to the shaded side of the tank in the
interrupter and read the temperature of the putty.
2-13
Construction and Operation Principle
The SF6 gas pressure of gas tank is conducted into tubular measuring element, and the
element deforms in proportion to the pressure. The deformation transmits to transmission rod,
which is connected to both extreme point of tubular measuring element and pointer, and pointer
indicates gas pressure.
Along with transmission rod, a bimetal is installed, so that to indicate 20 °C converted pressure.
This pressure gauge is equipped with alarm contact which is linked with pointer. Once
pressure decline is occurred, the contact will emit low pressure alarm.
