Eco-friendly Gas/Vacuum circuit breaker RD Junior
Hyosung Heavy Industries, Netherlands

Hyosung Heavy Industries exports its products to many parts of the world including North America, the Middle East and Europe. Our company is considered extremely valuable not only in the field of electrical power equipment such as transformers and circuit breakers, but also in the field of electric motors, gearboxes and generators for providing complete system solutions. In addition, we have core technologies required to build the power grids of the future, including Energy Storage Systems (ESS), STATCOM and Smart Grid solutions. Based on this, we are determined to lead the era of low-carbon green life

Hyosung Heavy Industry has continued to develop its products and services over the past four decades since the gas circuit breaker (GCB) for 170 kV was first developed in 1978. Over time we have successfully shipped our products with rated voltages up to 800kV to over forty different countries.

Our high-voltage circuit breakers are designed to be compact and easy to maintain.

In our research activities we focus on environmentally friendly products. Due to the characteristics of eco-efficient gas or vacuum, the switching behavior in high-voltage circuit breakers has a higher degree of difficulty in breaking and dielectric behavior compared to traditional SF6 gas. In particular, at the time of breaking, the thermal and dielectric stress of a switch is severe, ultimately increasing the complexity of the design of the breaker.

Hyosung Heavy Industry is taking on the challenge of collecting advanced information and basic data, in addition to the SF6 gas that has been standard up to now, in order to advance the interpretation of design standards for eco-efficient gas and vacuum interrupters. Accordingly, it is planned to develop eco-friendly gas and vacuum breakers and improve eco-efficient breaker design technology by promptly hiring experts and engineers who are interested in this topic and want to work in this environment. We will focus on the topic of eco-efficient spring-operated hybrid switch in the range from 145 kV to 420 kV.
