RRS-1 is a universal remote racking system capable of removing or inserting low- and medium-voltage draw out rotary circuit breakers.
Remote operation of the CBS ArcSafe RRS-1 places operator outside the arc-flash protection boundary.

Universal Rotary Remote Circuit Breaker Racking System

RRS-1 is a universal remote racking system capable of removing or inserting low- and medium-voltage draw out rotary circuit breakers while the operator remains outside the arc flash boundary. Model RRS-1 is used with circuit breakers that require a jack screw type mechanism for insertion and removal.

This device is portable, weighing less than 200 pounds, and user friendly requiring no modifications to the switchgear or circuit breakers. Each system will be custom designed to fit your circuit breaker needs.

Benefits

  • Remote operation places operator outside the arc-flash protection boundary
  • Compatible with low- and medium-voltage circuit breakers produced by all major switchgear manufacturers
  • Use with horizontal and vertical types of air, SF6, and vacuum circuit breakers
  • Height and angle of the drive is easily adjusted
  • Quick release drive shafts & couplings simplify setup
  • Redundant over-racking protection is provided
  • Seamless transfer AC/DC power
  • Hand-truck design provides easy mobility
  • Aids compliance with NFPA 70E relative to protecting personnel by using external circuit breaker rack-out devices

By permitting the automatic racking of the circuit breaker from a remote location, the CBS ArcSafe remote racking system replaces the manual racking operation and removes the operating personnel from manual contact with the circuit breaker. The unique design of the CBS ArcSafe remote racking system, with its specially manufactured drive shafts and tooling, enables the system to operate with all types of circuit breakers produced by the major switchgear manufacturers. The CBS ArcSafe remote racking system can operate with drawout types of air, SF6, and vacuum circuit breakers that have either a horizontal or vertical racking operation.
