Operating MechanismSelection Guide

Snap Action K-mechanism

The K-mechanism is a single spring snap action device.The switch opens or closes by charging the spring pastdead center using one of the manual operating handles.The K-mechanism may be used with all handle optionsas well as with type NM motor operators. The K-mecha-nism cannot be used for shunt trip applications.

n Use K-mechanism if you need chain drive handles

Stored Energy A-mechanism

The A-mechanism is a dual spring stored energy devicethat is well suited for remote tripping applications. When shunt tripping or mechanical fusetripping is specified, the type A-mechanism must beused. In normal operation, the opening spring ischarged and latched by an operating handle or by a motor operator. The VersaRupter is thenopened by any or several methods:

n Movement of the operating handlen Motor operatorn Electrical signal to a shunt trip devicen Mechanical fuse tripping linkage

1 Shunt trip option provides for operation by local push button or remote signal. Shunt trip requires stored energy type A-mechanism.

2 The HE drive must be used if manual operation is needed in conjunction with motor operator.3 Chain drive handles cannot be used with motor operators.4 This feature provides for the switch to open if a fuse operates.

Electrical Control OptionsShunt Trip or Shunt Close / Auxiliary Switches

The shunt trip option is available for local push but-ton or remote switching applications. The shunt tripcan be installed only on VersaRupters with storedenergy (A-mechanism) mechanisms. The shunt triputilizes a solenoid to actuate the A-mechanism trip latch. An auxiliary switch isrequired with shunt trip option.

Shunt trip/close coils are intermittent duty coils. AVersaRupter switch-operated auxiliary contact mustbe in series with the trip coil so that power isremoved from the coil after VersaRupter change-of-state. See Table 3 for auxiliary switch selection.

VersaRupter switches do not include any auxiliary contacts unless specified as an option fromTable 3.

The auxiliary switch contacts change state when the VersaRupter contacts change state. Theauxiliary switch can be installed on all VersaRupterswitches and all grounding switches. Auxiliary switch-es are shipped with an equal number of normallyopen and normally closed contacts, which may bereconfigured in the field as needed.

An optional fuse auxiliary switch is available to indicate an open fuse condition. This switch hastwo contacts, one normally open and one normallyclosed, and is actuated by the tie rod linkage con-nected to the Type CEF fuse base.

Chain Drive Handles with Mechanical Door Interlock

The following chain drive handles are for both right and left side operation, utilizing amechanical door interlock. They automatically latch the switchgear door when theVersaRupter is closed. Each assembly includes all parts required to actuate theVersaRupter switch, while interlocking the switchgear door. The mechanical doorinterlock is pre-installed on the chain drive handle assembly and includes the catchplate that fastens to the door to be automatically latched. Two styles are offered: stan-dard and offset. Standard doors close against the front of the switchgear frame andproject forward from the switchgear frame a dimension equal to the door depth.Offset doors are those that close into a recess in the switchgear frame so that the dooris flush with the switchgear front when closed. Select the chain drive handle assemblyaccording to the type of door used. Right hand chain drive handles include a spreaderbar of various lengths from which to select. Left hand chain drive handles include the left hand shaft extension sized to the voltage rating of the switch.

Do not use these handles with type A-mechanism stored energy mechanisms.

1A removable handle is required for manual HE operators. The removable handle should be ordered as a separate item.

Type HE Shaft Drive Operator

The “HE” operator provides front-mounted direct drive connection to theswitch main shaft. A bevel gear is provided for connection to the switchshaft, and a universal joint linkage is provided at the handle. These compo-nents accept a 0.75 inch galvanized pipe (not provided) which allows theVersaRupter to be positioned up to five feet from the front of the enclosure(special 1 inch fittings are required for greater distances). The type HEoperator is available in a locking coupled style for manual operation, and ade-coupled style for motor operation. Neither a mechanical door interlocknor key interlock provisions are available for the HE operators. However,the handle spline may be padlocked to prohibit installation of the removablehandle.

Direct Drive Handle

A manual operator handle is available for shaft-mounted direct operation of the VersaRupter fromeither side of the switchgear cabinet. The handles are available for fixed-mount or removable applica-tions. The left side handle includes the appropriate left-hand shaft extension kit. Padlocking is availablewith the fixed mount handle.

Grounding SwitchesType E

Grounding switches are available forconnection to the lower terminals of theVersaRupter or the VersaRupter fusebase. Grounding switches require theirown operating handle.

Note: It is required that mechanicalinterlocks be used in conjunctionwith ground switches. Interlocks pre-vent closing of the VersaRupterwhen the ground switch is closed.Please select an appropriate interlockfrom one of the lower sections intable 9.

The mechanical interlock prevents theVersaRupter from being closed when theType E grounding switch is closed.Mechanical interlocks are available invarious lengths to accommodate ground-ing switches mounted on the hinged sideof the VersaRupter or at the bottom ofthe fuse base.

Note: Mechanical interlocking is mount-ed on the left hand side and requires aleft hand shaft extension for theVersaRupter (see Table A2).

Manual Operation with NM Motor

The NM motor operator allows manual operation of the VersaRupter via a direct shaft drive HE operator with remov-able handle (chain drive handles cannot be used). The NM motor operator does not have to be electrically cycled aftera manual operation of the VersaRupter; it will automatically resume proper electrical operation in the proper position.The NM motor operator requires a motor contactor/relay assembly (3" x 3" x 8"), which may be mounted in theswitch enclosure or an adjacent vertical section.
