| Brand | ROCKWILL |
| Series | RPS |
| Rated Voltage | 15kV |
| Rated Normal Current | 1250A |
| Rated Frequency | 50/60Hz |
The RPS-15 15kV pole-mounted SF6 gas-insulated load break switch is KEMA type tested and fully compliant with IEC 62271-103. Developed for overhead pole installation, it offers multiple configurable versions: manual, motorized, remote control and automatic sectionalizer. It delivers safe, low-maintenance and intelligent switching solutions for global medium-voltage overhead distribution networks.
3mm Stainless Steel Tank, Low Weld Seams & Internal Arc Resistance:High-quality stainless steel enclosure minimizes corrosion risks; withstands full internal arc faults without hot gas ejection to secure field operators.
Patented Spiral Spring Operating Mechanism:Independent spring unit with ROCKWILL® proprietary spiral spring, stable opening/closing speed to guarantee reliable load breaking and short-circuit making performance.
High-Visibility Reflective Position Indicator:Shaft-linked reflective marker, clear ON/OFF identification from ground level day and night, even under heavy rain or fog.
Full Sealed SF6 Gas Monitoring & Lock-out Protection:Hermetic gas chamber equipped with density switch, density gauge and low-pressure lock-out mechanism to prevent insulation failure from gas loss.
Optional Intelligent Secondary Control Terminal:Matching outdoor control box integrates full electrical monitoring, fault recording and remote control for unattended distribution automation.
IP67 Mechanism Box & Wide Environmental Adaptability:IP67 protection grade, operates stably from -40°C to +60°C, suitable for installation altitude up to 2500m.
