SF6 Gas Insulated Ring Main Unit (RMU) – Medium Voltage Switchgear for Secondary Distribution

Product Overview

Our Ring Main Unit (RMU) is a factory‑assembled, metal‑enclosed medium voltage switchgear designed for reliable power distribution in secondary networks. All live parts are housed inside a stainless‑steel tank filled with SF6 gas, providing complete insulation and protection against environmental contaminants such as dust, humidity, and salt spray.

The modular design allows you to combine functional units – switch‑fuse, circuit‑breaker, load‑break, PT, and metering – to match your network topology exactly. With a compact footprint and IP67‑rated tank, this RMU is equally suitable for indoor substations, outdoor kiosks, and underground vaults.

Key Features

  • Fully insulated and sealed – SF6 gas insulation ensures stable dielectric performance regardless of ambient conditions.

  • Maintenance‑free operation – sealed‑for‑life tank eliminates the need for gas refilling or regular servicing.

  • Modular & flexible – combine up to 6 modules (C, F, V, PT, M, etc.) to suit complex ring‑main or radial networks.

  • High safety – integrated interlock mechanisms prevent mal‑operation; pressure relief devices protect against internal arc faults.

  • Compact design – up to 50% space saving compared to traditional air‑insulated switchgear.

  • Robust construction – stainless steel tank with anti‑corrosion treatment; suitable for harsh environments.

  • Easy installation – pre‑wired and pre‑tested at factory; quick plug‑in connections for field cables.

  • Wide current range – up to 630A for load‑break and 200A for fuse‑combination units (or up to 1250A with circuit breaker).
