[0002] Insulated metal-enclosed switchgear, typically referring to gas-insulated metal-enclosed switchgear, uses sulfur hexafluoride gas as the insulating and arc-extinguishing medium. It selects and controls circuit breakers, disconnectors, fast grounding switches, etc., and performs centralized control at the terminal. At the same time, it monitors the operating status of these switches, the density and pressure of sulfur hexafluoride gas in each chamber in real time to achieve electrical interlocking between switches in this bay.

[0003] However, most commonly used insulated metal-enclosed switchgear on the market currently uses sulfur hexafluoride as the insulation and arc-quenching medium. Insulated metal-enclosed switchgear using this method has an extremely high greenhouse effect potential, causing serious negative impacts on the environment. Therefore, an environmentally friendly gas-insulated metal-enclosed switchgear is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an environmentally friendly gas-insulated metal-enclosed switchgear, comprising a device housing and its internal circuit breakers, disconnectors, grounding switches, current transformers (CTs), power PTs (PTs), surge arresters, and busbars. A cable box is fixedly connected to one side of the device housing, and an instrument box is fixedly connected to the other side of the device housing.

[0006] A gas box is fixedly connected to the bottom of the equipment mechanism box. A side busbar is provided on the front side of the gas box. A fixed column is fixedly installed on the top of the inner wall of the gas box. A fixed frame is fixedly connected to the bottom of the fixed column. A vacuum circuit breaker is fixedly installed on the top of the fixed frame. An adsorption drying tower is installed inside the cable box. An air circulation pump is installed on one side of the adsorption drying tower. Two circulating air pipes are fixedly connected between the air circulation pump and the adsorption drying tower.

[0007] Preferably, the air circulation pump is fixedly installed on one side of the vacuum circuit breaker.

[0012] Preferably, the vacuum circuit breaker is fixed to the mounting frame by an epoxy resin insulating support, and the moving and stationary contacts of the vacuum circuit breaker can be made of copper-chromium alloy.

[0013] The technical effects and advantages of this utility model are as follows:

[0014] 1. By abandoning the traditional sulfur hexafluoride and using N2 as the insulation and arc-quenching medium, the negative impact of the equipment on the environment is greatly reduced, which is in line with the concept of green environmental protection. The moving and stationary contacts of the vacuum circuit breaker can be made of copper-chromium alloy. Its core function is to quickly cut off or connect the circuit through vacuum arc-quenching technology to ensure system safety. In case of line abnormality, it can quickly cut off the fault current, realize reliable protection of the line and equipment, reduce the scope of fault impact, and improve the stability and reliability of power grid operation. The air circulation pump continuously drives the air in the air box to flow through the adsorption drying tower, which adsorbs moisture in time, ensuring that the dry air in the air box is always in a good dry state, stabilizing the insulation performance, extending the service life of the equipment, and reducing the probability of failure caused by humidity problems.

[0015] 2. The air box adopts a stainless steel welded sealed structure, with a conductive coating sprayed on the inner wall and grounded, to create a closed and insulated space. Combined with low-pressure dry air, epoxy resin insulated supports, and a specific insulation structure, it effectively isolates high-voltage conductors and components, ensuring that the equipment reaches the rated insulation level. It can stably cope with the complex operating conditions of high-voltage and high-capacity power grids, ensuring safe and reliable power transmission. Attached Figure Description

[0027] As attached Figure 1-3 As shown, a pressure relief channel 17 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the air box 4 to prevent excessive internal pressure.

[0028] As attached Figure 1-5As shown, the gas box 4 adopts a stainless steel welded sealing structure, the inner wall is sprayed with a conductive coating and grounded, and the vacuum circuit breaker 8 is fixed to the fixing frame 7 by an epoxy resin insulating support. The moving and stationary contacts of the vacuum circuit breaker 8 can be made of copper-chromium alloy to ensure insulation effect and arc extinguishing characteristics.

[0029] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: The equipment uses N2 instead of traditional sulfur hexafluoride as the insulating medium. The gas box 4 adopts a stainless steel welded sealed structure, with a conductive coating sprayed on the inner wall and grounded to form a closed insulating space. Low-pressure dry air is placed inside the gas box 4. The vacuum circuit breaker 8 is fixed to the fixed frame 7 by epoxy resin insulating supports and a specific insulating structure, which seals or metallizes the high-voltage conductor or high-voltage component to meet the requirements of the rated insulation level. The moving and stationary contacts of the vacuum circuit breaker 8 can be made of copper-chromium alloy. Vacuum breaking technology is used to control and protect the line. When the line is running normally, the vacuum circuit breaker 8 closes, and the load current passes through its moving and stationary contacts. When the line experiences overload current or short-circuit current, the vacuum circuit breaker 8 quickly breaks the fault current to protect the line and equipment.

[0030] The adsorption drying tower 9 and the air circulation pump 10 inside the cable box 2 work together to maintain the dryness of the air in the air box 4. The air circulation pump 10 is fixedly installed on one side of the vacuum circuit breaker 8 and is fixedly connected to the adsorption drying tower 9 through two circulating air pipes 11. The air circulation pump 10 drives the air in the air box 4 to flow through the adsorption drying tower 9. The adsorption drying tower 9 adsorbs the moisture in the air, and the dried air returns to the air box 4 to ensure the stable insulation performance of the dry air in the air box 4.

[0031] The equipment control box 1 integrates circuit breakers, disconnect switches, grounding switches, current transformers (CTs), power supply transformers (PTs), surge arresters, and key busbar components. It is the core control area of ​​the entire equipment, responsible for realizing circuit switching, measurement, and protection functions.
