Abstract: A mechanical latching accessory kit for a Medium Voltage contactor including one or more movable contacts connected through a mechanical link to a contact actuator moving the one or more movable contacts between a contact open position and a contact closed position. The mechanical latching accessory kit includes: a supporting interface adapted to be fixed to and removed from the Medium Voltage contactor; a latching element movable between a first operating position and a second resting position; a latching actuating system moving the latching element between the first, operating, position and the second, resting, position; the latching element being adapted, when it is in the first operating position, to cooperate with the mechanical link of the Medium Voltage contactor to latch the one or more movable contacts, and, when it is in the second resting position, to release the one or more movable contacts.

Abstract: A switching apparatus includes one or more electric pole units, each electric pole unit comprising a fixed contact, a movable contact, a first pole terminal, a second pole terminal, and a motion transmission arrangement to reversibly move the movable contact. The motion transmission arrangement includes a conductive motion transmission member coupled to the movable contact. The first pole terminal is in electrical connection to the fixed contact while the second pole terminal includes a first coupling region in electrical connection with a second coupling region of the conductive motion transmission member. Each electric pole unit further includes a shielding element formed by a conductive hollow body and arranged in a relative fixed position with respect to the second pole terminal and the motion transmission member. The shielding element is arranged to at least partially surround the first coupling and the second coupling region.

Abstract: Systems, methods, techniques and apparatuses of contactors are disclosed. One exemplary embodiment is a contactor including an electric pole, a pair of plungers, and a pair of opening springs. The electric pole includes a fixed yoke member and a movable yoke member arranged respectively at a proximal position and a distal position with respect to a movable contact. The fixed yoke member includes a pair of through holes. The pair of second plungers are inserted in a corresponding through hole passing through the fixed yoke member and symmetrically positioned with respect to a main symmetry plane of the contactor, which is parallel to a displacement axis of the movable contact and perpendicular to a displacement plane of the movable contact. The pair of opening springs are symmetrically positioned with respect to the main symmetry plane.

Abstract: A contactor for medium voltage electric systems including: one or more electric poles; for each electric pole, a fixed contact and a corresponding movable contact reversibly movable between a first position, at which the movable contact is decoupled from the fixed contact, and a second position, at which the movable contact is coupled with the fixed contact; an electromagnetic actuator including a magnetic yoke having a fixed yoke member and a movable yoke member, the movable yoke member reversibly movable between a third position corresponding to the first position of the movable contacts, at which the movable yoke member is decoupled from the fixed yoke member, and a fourth position, corresponding to the second position of the movable contacts, at which the movable yoke member is coupled with the fixed yoke member, the electromagnetic actuator including an excitation circuit assembly including an excitation coil wound around the magnetic yoke and electrically connected with an auxiliary electric power supply to be fed with an excitation current to generate an excitation magnetic flux to move the movable yoke member from the third position to the fourth position or to maintain the movable yoke member in the fourth position; an opening springs operatively coupled with the movable yoke member to move the movable yoke member from the fourth position to the third position; a kinematic chain to operatively connect said movable yoke member with said movable contacts. The electromagnetic actuator including camping circuit assembly comprising a damping coil arranged to form a conductive loop adapted to be at least partially enchained with the excitation magnetic flux generated by the excitation current flowing along the excitation coil, when the auxiliary electric power supply provides the excitation current to the excitation coil, so that a secondary current circulates along the damping coil when the excitation magnetic flux is subject to a transient.
