RRS-1 LT
Rotary Remote Circuit Breaker Racking System
The RRS-1 LT is CBS ArcSafe’s lightweight and compact counterpart to the industry-leading RRS-1 universal rotary remote circuit breaker racking system. The RRS-1 LT is designed specifically for applications and environments where a weight and/or size constraint may limit the use of the RRS-1. Setup and operation of the RRS-1 LT is very similar to that of the standard RRS-1; users who are familiar with RRS-1 operation can transition between operation of the two easily with no additional training required.
In order to meet the design requirements for the RRS-1 LT, CBS ArcSafe has had to make major alterations to the unit in order to minimize the size and weight, therefore decreasing the rating of the unit. CBS ArcSafe recommends the RRS-1 LT be used primarily on low-voltage circuit breakers requiring no more than 27 newton-meters of racking torque.
As compared with the standard RRS-1, the RRS-1 LT sports the following changes:
Although the RRS-1 LT exhibits many differences from the RRS-1, it also includes many of the standard features found on the RRS-1. The RRS-1 LT utilises the same dual redundant racking protection via the Current Control Module (CCM) and mechanical torque limiter, giving users two means of protection against damaging equipment during racking operations. The RRS-1 LT also includes an intelligent AC/DC power system that allows the unit to run on battery or AC power. In addition to these standard features, the RRS-1 LT also includes several standard features that the RRS-1 does not. For instance, RRS-1 LT comes standard with a two-station high-reach vertical adjustment capable of reaching breaker racking mechanisms up to 200 cm high. Also included is a wireless remote control that allows users to operate the unit from up to 90 meters away.
The RRS-1 LT is ideal for applications where users must transport the racking unit by themselves through tight spaces or up stairways. The modular design breakdown allows the user to transport the unit individually into hard-to-access areas while not lifting over 22.5 kg in the process. Whether the application calls for its use perched on a catwalk above a production floor or in a remote substation located in a basement, the RRS-1 LT is the most practical solution to a difficult problem. The RRS-1 LT sets the new standard in lightweight and portable universal remote racking systems.
The RSO-IV for the RRS-1 LT is a tightly integrated control cabinet inside of a Pelican case. This allows the RRS-1 LT all of the controls that the RRS-1 control cabinet offers minus the peripheral extensions.
The RSO-IV has the same batteries and charging system as the RRS-1 so that the RRS-1 LT may be used. The RRS-1 LT has the same battery life as the RRS-1 and utilises a custom lighter-weight motor for portability.
