More about air breakers

Air breakers use air as the medium for arc extinction when interrupting fault currents. They are the workhorses of industrial and commercial switchgear, serving as main, tie, and feeder breakers in power distribution systems rated from 600V through 15kV. Air breakers are available in draw-out and fixed-mount configurations, with electrically operated or manually operated mechanisms. RS Breakers & Controls carries the full range of air breakers — from low voltage power air circuit breakers and medium voltage air breakers to legacy air magnetic models and complete air breaker accessories and parts including trip units, contacts, arc chutes, shunt trips, and operating mechanisms.
