You've got arc flash risks and nuisance tripping in your distribution network, and that's where a fixed-type breaker that actually holds under fault conditions makes the difference — we see this a lot with older indutrial setups that need upgrading without a full retrofit.
What we're supplying handles the 12kV range with current options of 630, 1250, or 1600A, and it uses a lateral spring charging mechanism for that high-speed break (usually under 3 cycles). The vacuum arc extinction is pretty much maintenance-free compared to oil or SF6, which is why most EU buyers go with this for substation retrofits.

It's got overcurrent, overvoltage, and breaker failure protection built into the three-pole fixed design, and compliance with IEC M2-E2-C2 means you're covered for frequent switching and capacitive loads. One thing we've learned handling these for UK clients: the manual operation lever is a lifesaver when you lose control power during commissioning.

Ambient range is -15°C to +40°C, though above 1000m altitude we usually de-rate slightly — still, most industrial sites are below that anyway. The 50Hz frequency is standard for EU and UK grids, but if you're in the US on 60Hz, just confirm the coil settings before ordering.

Lead time from our Rotterdam warehose is typically 20 working days or so, and our company provide full CE declaration and COA with each shipment — customs in the UK and EU have never flagged these on compliance side. We've also got the IEC test reports on file if your inspector wants to verify the C2 capacitive switching rating.
Anyway, if you're looking at a batch of 10 units or more, our company can lock in pricing and hold stock for staggered delivrey — just let us know the current range you need since teh 1600A variant has a different terminal configuration than the 630A.
The MOQ for this model is typically 1 unit for standard configurations, but we can discuss larger volume discounts if you're ordering in bulk.
Standard lead time is around 30-45 business days from order confirmation, depending on quantity and current production load.
Yes, we can share digital copies of all three certifications — VDE, ISO9001, and CE — upon request. Just let us know after the order.
M2 means it's rated for frequent mechanical operations, E2 covers electrical endurance for extended life, and C2 indicates it's suitable for capacitor bank switching with low risk of restrike.
No, this fixed type is designed for indoor use up to 1000 meters altitude. For higher altitudes or outdoor setups, we'd recommend checking with us for a customized variant.
