Working principle
The core characteristic of 12KV Polymer Fuse Cutout is nonlinear volt ampere characteristics:
Under normal operating voltage, the resistor is in a high resistance insulation state, with minimal leakage current, which does not affect the normal operation of the circuit.
When lightning strikes/overvoltage occur, the resistor instantly becomes low resistance conductive, clamping the overvoltage within a safe range and quickly releasing surge current.
After the overvoltage disappears, it automatically restores the high resistance insulation state without any continuous current, which does not affect the normal power supply of the system.
Product Structure
The 12KV Polymer Fuse Cutout has a standard round cake structure, with the core components being:
Zinc oxide ceramic core, high-purity ZnO formula, is the core for achieving nonlinear volt ampere characteristics.
Double sided metal electrodes ensure electrical connection reliability and enhance current carrying capacity.
Side insulation glaze layer to prevent surface flashover, improve insulation performance and anti pollution ability.
Surface laser engraving parameter identification, convenient for selection and traceability.
Core Materials and Technological Advantages
12KV Polymer Fuse Cutout uses 99.9% high-purity ZnO raw material, with the addition of special additives to enhance nonlinearity and flow capacity.
High temperature and high pressure sintering results in high density, uniform grain size, stable performance, and low aging rate.
High insulation and weather resistant glaze layer, resistant to electrical corrosion and moisture, suitable for harsh outdoor environments.
Precision machining process: dimensional tolerance controlled within ± 0.2mm, high consistency, suitable for automated lightning arrester assembly.
Application
12KV Polymer Fuse Cutout, as the core component of composite jacket lightning arresters and porcelain jacket lightning arresters, is used in the production of 3-36kV distribution and power station lightning arresters, and is the core guarantee of lightning arrester performance.
It is used as a surge protection module for power equipment such as transformers, switchgear, ring main units, and cable terminals, providing overvoltage protection for distribution systems.
Surge protection for grid connected cabinets, inverters, box transformers, and other equipment in photovoltaic, wind power, and energy storage systems to resist lightning strikes and operational overvoltages.
Surge protection devices for industrial control, power equipment, and communication equipment to protect against surge impacts caused by lightning strikes and switch operations.
Selection guide and usage instructions
1. Selection Guide
1. Current level matching: Select the corresponding specifications based on the rated discharge current of the lightning arrester. For 5kA lightning arrester, choose D30/D32/D35; for 10kA, choose D38/D40/D42/D48/D53; and for 20kA, choose D60/D70.
2. Size adaptation: Select the corresponding diameter of the varistor according to the structural design of the export varistor, and adapt to high current and high energy scenarios for larger diameters.
3. Voltage matching: 12KV Polymer Fuse Cutout is compatible with 3kV level systems, and higher voltage levels can be achieved by connecting resistors in series.
2. Precautions for use and processing
1. The storage environment should be dry, ventilated, and avoid moisture and high temperatures to prevent the resistor from being affected by moisture and affecting its performance.
2. Avoid severe collisions and drops during assembly to prevent cracking of the ceramic core.
3. Control temperature during welding/assembly to avoid high temperature damage to resistor performance.
4. When used in series, resistors with consistent parameters should be selected to ensure balanced performance.
5.All batches of resistors have undergone factory testing and testing reports can be provided.
