Joslyn Hi-Voltage's vacuum switches with VacStat(TM) Technology
Continues to Grow in Market Acceptance
Joslyn Hi-Voltage's switch production containing the VacStat(TM) breakthrough in vacuum pressure monitoring technology continues to grow with the introduction of the VacStat(TM) feature into another model Joslyn Hi-Voltage vacuum switch. Interest from both the Utility and Industrial customer base reflects the increased demand for vacuum switches which include this technology. The rate of Joslyn's vacuum switches that includes the VacStat(TM) feature are ahead of schedule and are expected to continue as we continue to introduce VacStat(TM) into other Joslyn product offerings.
"We are very proud of the benefits that this new and exciting technology offers our customers" reports Jim Domo, President of Joslyn Hi-Voltage. "We believe that by adding VacStat(TM) technology to Joslyn Hi-Voltage's capacitor switch family, which is the longest life capacitor switch in the global market, the result is a further monitoring enhancement adding further value by allowing local and remote monitoring of its vacuum interrupter status. Judging from the growing number of customers adding this feature, it appears our customers do also."
VacStat(TM) provides real-time monitoring of vacuum interrupters. If a loss of vacuum is detected it provides local indication and alarm output contacts for remote monitoring indication. The result is reduced maintenance costs and improved switch reliability and uptime.
Joslyn Hi-Voltage will be demonstrating the VacStat(TM) at the AWEA Windpower Show in Booth 1511 in Los Angeles, California June 3-6.
Joslyn Hi-Voltage manufactures high voltage switches and related controls for electric utilities and large industrial substations that includes automatic circuit reclosers, sectionalizers, capacitor switches, air disconnect switches, load break vacuum interrupter attachments, load break underground switches and Fisher Pierce® brand distribution controls including Powerflex® and Autocap(TM) capacitor controls, faulted circuit indicators (FCIs), current sensors, and Smartlink(TM) communications equipment for fault monitoring and reporting.
Joslyn Hi-Voltage specializes in the use of vacuum interrupters incorporating its field proven solid dielectric which offers its customers the longest life switching technology which is environmentally friendly and operationally safe without the use of oil or gas.
