Avoidance of SF₆ – climate protection aspect
Use of a Siemens
HB3 generator circuit breaker SF₆‑free
with vacuum technology.
Adaptation to
existing structures: circuit breakers have a modular design and can be used
flexibly.
Products
and systems: HB3 generator circuit breaker (net-zero-product), engineering
solution for retrofit, turnkey installation and commissioning services.
Challenges:
tight spaces, adaptation to old infrastructure, precise lifting and assembly
processes with telescopic crane.
With the conscious decision to dispense with a switchgear
operated with SF6 switching gas, we at EVN are also sending a clear signal in
terms of climate protection at our thermal power plants.

EVN Wärmekraftwerke
Operation-
and maintenance-free for more than 20,000 switching cycles – significantly lower life
cycle costs.
Increased
availability and security of supply of the power plant.
Climate-friendly solution without SF₆
(net-zero-product, CO₂-neutral).
Compact,
tailor-made solution, minimal intervention in existing plant.
Future energy
efficiency, sustainability and operational safety secured.
