Intended use
SION
®
vacuum circuit-breakers are suitable for switching any type of alternating cur-
rent circuits under normal operating conditions, such as:
• Overhead lines
• Cables
• Transformers
• Capacitors
• Motors
SION
®
vacuum circuit-breakers operate in continuous, periodic and short-term op-
eration.
Standards
The SION
®
vacuum circuit-breakers comply with the standards:
• IEC 62271-1 and
• IEC 62271-100.
All SION
®
vacuum circuit-breakers meet the requirements for circuit-breaker class-
es C2, E2, M2 and S1 as per IEC 62271-100.
Country-specific and standard-specific deviations from the standards mentioned
must be observed.
Type approval as per the German X-Ray Ordinance
The vacuum interrupters installed in the switching devices are type-approved as
sources of interference radiation according to § 8 of the German X-Ray Ordinance
and they comply with the requirements for sources of parasitic X-ray emitters ac-
cording to Annex 2 No. 5 of the current German X-Ray Ordinance up to the rated
voltage defined in the approval certificate.
Vacuum interrupters with the type identifier can be operated by the owner of the
switchgear without licensing or notification. Keep a printed copy of the certificate in
a suitable central location.
