Why SION 3AE3 vacuum circuit-breakers?

Imagine you could build medium-voltage switchgear for IEEE/ANSI applications using only 80 % of the usual space typically used for circuit-breakers. That vision now becomes reality: The Siemens SION 3AE3 vacuum circuit-breaker comes with an extremely compact design and can be integrated quickly and easily into almost any air-insulated medium-voltage switchgear panel.

  • up to 27 kV
  • up to 40 kA
  • up to 4000 A

Space maximizer

Reclaim 20 % of your panel space for efficient installation.

Seamless integration

Tailored for stationary or withdrawable setups, adapting perfectly to your panel's needs.

Trusted performance

Superior switching performance in compliance to latest IEEE/ANSI standards, approved by UL and CSA.

Fully customizable switching device

The SION 3AE3 can be used as a stationary operator, while any withdrawable mechanisms, primary contacts and other interfaces can be individually provided by the panelbuilder. Customers can choose between different pole-center distances (PCD) that are available for almost all voltage and current ratings.

Complete withdrawable solution

There is also a selected range of withdrawable devices available, where the SION 3AE3 is being mounted onto a compact withdrawable part, that moves the switching device from the DISCONNECT/TEST to the CONNECT position. The connection to the bus bars/fixed contacts of the panel is done with the included primary contacts.
