  • Page 17 Description Motor (-M1) After the supply voltage is applied and if the closing spring is discharged, the motor starts immediately and is automatically deactivated internally after charging has taken place. For power consumption see table Fig. 12. In the short charging time, the motor operates in the overload range.
  • Page 18 Description Anti-pumping device (-K1), contactor relay (-K1) If simultaneous electrical CLOSE and OPEN commands are continuously applied to the vacuum circuit-breaker, it returns to the open position after being closed. The function of the anti-pumping device means that the vacuum circuit-breaker remains there until the ON com- mand is re-entered.
  • Page 19 Description 1st shunt release (-Y1) In the case of the 1st shunt release (-Y1), the electrically fed tripping pulse is passed to the "OPEN" latch by means of a directly acting magnet armature, thus switch- ing off the vacuum circuit-breaker. The 1st shunt release (-Y1) is not designed for continu- ous operation and is terminated within the circuit-breaker via the auxiliary switch (-S1) at the factory.

  • Page 23 Description Transformer-operated release (-Y4), (-Y5) 3AX1102, (-Y6) 3AX1104 The transformer-operated releases (-Y4), (-Y5) or (-Y6) consist of an energy storage mechanism, an unlatching fixture and an electromagnetic system. If the tripping cur- rent is exceeded (90 % of the transformer-operated re- lease's rated current), the stored energy mechanism is unlatched, thus initiating opening of the vacuum circuit- breaker.
  • Page 24 Description Undervoltage release (-Y7) 3AX1103 Note The undervoltagerelease(-Y7) may only be operated with the supplied series re- sistor (-R1). Note For circuits (mechanical or electrical), the undervoltage release 3AX1103… must be connected to control voltage, as otherwise closing is not possible (refer to “Re- moving the transport block from the undervoltage release”, page 40).
