An Economical Solution for Fault Isolation & System Reliability
The Southern States Smart Sectionalizer™, type SLS, is an economical, distribution class vacuum switching device that offers improved reliability to a distribution system. Using the SEL 2411 programmable automation controller, along with the integrated voltage and current sensors, the type SLS can be integrated into a Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) system to detect a fault, notify the SCADA Distribution Management System (DMS), and execute the SCADA DMS command to open or close the switch, confining outages to smaller segments on a line. This can drastically improve restoration and outage times when there is a loss of power.
This solid insulation device utilizes hydrophobic cycloaliphatic epoxy (HCEP) to offer superior performance and reliability in harsh outdoor conditions. Additionally, it comes standard with a magnetic actuator mechanism, 304 stainless steel mechanism tank, as well as an amber LED fault indicator light on the bottom of the switch.
The vacuum switching device is also compatible with other manufacturers protection relays that can offer recloser functionalities. These include the SEL 351R4, SEL 651RA, and SEL 651R2.
