The very best of
vacuum technology
DE60163
As a specialist in breaking technologies,
Merlin Gerin took naturally an interest in
vacuum breaking techniques.
A major R&D investment was made to
develop and engineer Evolis, providing
customers with the very best of vacuum
technology.
Ceramic chamber
Shield
Fixed contact
Mobile contact
Make-up of a vacuum interrupter
b Vacuum interrupters basically have two electrical contacts, one fixed and the other
mobile, and a sealed enclosure. The latter enables a high level of vacuum to be
maintained inside the interrupter (less than 10-2 Pa) to provide insulation between
the open contacts.
b The dielectric strength of the vacuum allows the contact-to-contact distance to be
reduced. This short distance together with the low opening speed allow the use of a
low energy control mechanism. A metal bellows provides the link between the mobile
contact and the enclosure.
b In order to keep the vacuum level required for the correct operation of the
interrupter for 30 years, the enclosure must be perfectly sealed, and the various
components have to be fully degased. This is achieved by:
v choosing materials that are specifically selected for this application
(metals and ceramics),
v choosing an appropriate assembly process (vacuum, high temperature brazing),
v the use of a "getter" material to absorb the residual gas.
Current breaking in a vacuum interrupter
Metal bellows
b At low values of current, these vapors very quickly condense on the shield and
contacts when the arc disappears, thus allowing:
v the vacuum to be re-established,
v a contact-to-contact dielectric strength to be restored that is greater than
the recovery voltage: breaking is then complete.

b In vacuum breaking, the electrical arc generated on separation of the contacts is
made up of a plasma of metal vapors produced by the vaporization of the contact
material.
b At high currents, the electrical arc in the vacuum switches to a concentrated mode
which causes high, localized temperature rises on the contacts. The existence of
these hot spots is detrimental to the quick restoring of the dielectric strength.
Two techniques can be used in order to avoid this stagnation of the static
concentrated arc:
v the so called RMF (Radial Magnetic Field) technique, involves rotating the arc
thanks to an electromagnetic effect generated by a radial magnetic field; this
therefore limits contact erosion.
v a more recent technique called AMF (Axial Magnetic Field) involves applying an
axial magnetic field parallel to the axis of the two contacts (fig. 2) which allows a
diffuse arc to be maintained (fig. 3) even at high current values. The arc energy is
spread over the whole contact surface area, therefore causing very low levels of
erosion.
v Merlin Gerin has chosen this last technique for the Evolis range.
200110
Merlin Gerin’s choices for Evolis
combined with its industrial expertise
provides customer with a highly reliable
range of circuit-breakers. These products
are suitable for the most demanding
conditions with the guarantee of full
compliance with international standards.
AMF technology
b Evolis circuit-breakers use AMF type vacuum interrupters.
According to technical and economic optimization considerations, the axial magnetic
field is generated:
v either by a coil outside of the interrupter (fig. 4), for rated voltages up to 17.5 kV,
v or by a coil integrated in the interrupter contact structure (fig. 5), for the 24 kV
voltage level.
b In both cases the AMF vacuum interrupters feature low arc voltages (Uarc of
around 50 V) and maximum usage of the contact surface for very low contact erosion.
The advantages provided
b The above choices provide customers with the following advantages in
MV circuit-breaker applications:
v simple and compact vacuum interrupters,
v high electrical endurance meaning that there is no need for contact wear
inspection in normal network protection applications including highly disturbed
overhead line feeders.

Systematic advanced control
The main components of the circuit-breaker, such as vacuum interrupter and
operating mechanism, are produced by Schneider Electric. The vacuum interrupters
are manufactured in an ultra-modern production unit in France.
During manufacture, each circuit-breaker is subjected to systematic advanced
testing.
Vacuum interrupter testing
b The level of vacuum in each interrupter is tested using the "magnetron discharge
method".
PE60061
Vacuum interrupter
b Using this sophisticated procedure, measurement is very precise and does not
require access to the inside of the interrupter, thus not affecting the airtight seal.
Circuit-breaker testing
b A rigorous set of tests and measurements is carried out on each circuit-breaker.
b The results are reported and signed off by the quality control department on each
device's test certificate to ensure product traceability.
Compliance with standards
b Evolis complies with IEC 62271-100.
b Design and production are certified to ISO 9000 (version 2000).
b Production sites are certified to ISO 14001 (environmental standard).
Certification
Industrial process expertise
b The certificate of conformity provides guarantees that the circuit-breaker:
v has been subject to type tests according to EN 45001 standards procedures in
accredited laboratories by independent organizations,
v is in conformity with recognized international standards
b Evolis is currently being certified by external EN 45011 accredited organizations,
members of the STL (Short circuit Testing Liaison)
v EN 45001: general requirements for the competence of testing and calibration
laboratories,
v EN 45011: general requirements for bodies of operating product certification
systems.
Environmental care
b Product design takes account of the environmental constraints described in a
"Product Environment Profile" dossier (PEP).
b An end-of-service-life manual details procedures for dismantling and processing
components.

b An Undervoltage release operates to open the circuit-breaker when the voltage at
the terminals of the release falls below 35% of its rated voltage, even if the fall is slow
and gradual.
On the other hand, it does not operate the circuit-breaker when the voltage at its
terminals exceeds 70% of its rated supply voltages.
Circuit-breaker closing is possible when the values of the voltage at the terminals of
the release are greater than or equal to 85% of its rated voltage.

(Example: a circuit-breaker equipped with a remote control and a shunt opening release
has 4 NC + 4 NO + 1 CHG available contacts. With an undervoltage release instead of
a shunt release, this circuit-breaker has 4 NC + 5 NO + 1CHG available contacts).
b When the 21-pin LV plug is used (for withdrawable applications), the maximum
number of available contacts is:

v the door can only be opened with the circuit-breaker racked out.
b Earthing is achieved throughout the whole racking in operation by the mean of the
wheels of the racking truck. Additional earthing device can be supplied as an option.
b Protective shutters on the cradle prevent access to the racking fingers when the
device is extracted (protection index: IP2X).
b For maintenance or test purposes, it is possible to:
v padlock the shutters in the closed position,
v unlock the shutters mechanism to access the fixed contacts, and insert a screen
to prevent the lived set of fixed contacts being exposed.
DE60138
b A fool-proof protection enables cradle and circuit-breaker to be matched up.
This system is mounted on the circuit-breaker. Part of it has to be assembled by
the panel builder on the cradle side.
b Earthing switch
It can be fixed on the cradle, allowing proper interlocking between the circuit-breaker
and the earthing switch, (see detailed description in "Earthing switch and cubicle
components" catalogue).

Under voltage release (YN)
(1) Shunt opening release
b An under voltage release operates to open the circuit-breaker when the voltage at
the terminals of the release falls below 35% of its rated voltage, even if the fall is slow
and gradual.
On the other hand, it does not operate the circuit-breaker when the voltage at its
terminals exceeds 70% of its rated supply voltage.
Circuit-breaker closing is possible when the values of the voltage at the terminals of
the release are greater than or equal to 85% of its rated voltage.
Closing is impossible when the voltage at the terminals is lower than 35% of its
rated supply voltage.

Evolis Pilot monitoring
device
Function description
Fitted on the circuit-breaker,
the Pilot monitors its operating
conditions.
The Pilot circuit-breaker monitoring device
has two specific features
Monitoring operating conditions
DE60053
The device monitors external conditions and provides alarms if they are out of the
specified range.
Recording circuit-breaker operating data
Similarly to an aircraft black box the monitor device logs the circuit-breaker’s key data
over time, allowing a diagnosis on its mechanical conditions.

b The module continuously monitors
v opening auxiliary voltage,
v circuit-breaker ambient temperature,
v number of operations,
v time between operations,
v and sends alarms if the set points are exceeded.
b Alarms are visible on the front of the device and can also be transferred to
the LV compartment, or supervision system.
b Operating conditions are recorded: minimum and maximum values of auxiliary
voltage and ambient temperature are time-tagged and stored every 24h.
Recording circuit-breaker data
b All circuit-breaker events are time-tagged and stored (opening, closing, motor
charging, energizing, voltage set point, temperature set point, number of operations,
time between operations).
b A circuit-breaker expert can analyse the stored data in order to check the correct
mechanical functioning of the circuit-breaker, 1000 events are stored in the
module.
Servicing note-pad
b The device incorporates this useful feature to record any information related to
servicing the circuit-breaker (250x250 - character note-pad).

Remote use
The monitoring device can be connected to a supervisor or concentrator
for connection to the Web via a local RS485 Modbus network.
The supervisor can display, process and acknowledge alarms.
Data is then either processed in the supervision system or in the remote
web-enabled system.
DE60057
Easy to install module
b The module is inserted in the special housing reserved for it on the front of the
circuit-breaker.
This module may be added at any time
during the circuit-breaker's service life
b The module may be factory-mounted within the circuit-breaker: connection and
parameter setting, are done by Schneider Electric.
b The module may be added after circuit-breaker commissioning: connection,
parameter setting and testing, are done by a specialized service provider (Schneider
Electric or other).
The customer is provided with the product manual and the CDrom containing the
computerized manual and UMI PC software.
Operation and service
The "Pilot" monitoring device can be used on two levels:
b Information on operating conditions.
b Diagnosis of mechanical circuit-breaker conditions: performed by a circuit-breaker
expert (from Schneider Electric), by analyzing the recorded data.
