AmpVac (Single Gap)
The AmpVac is an enclosed vacuum bottle interrupter where no gases are vented to the atmosphere. This single contact AmpVac interrupters break loads up to 1500 amps at 48-138 kV. Single vacuum bottle interrupters may be used at increased voltages for parallel or loop switching applications as long as the peak recovery voltage does not exceed 38 kV. The mechanical and electrical life of the AmpVac is 5000 operations at full load. The AmpVac was tested to IEEE 1247-1998.
