MM74 HSCB RETROFIT

WHIPP & BOURNE CIRCUIT BREAKER

SIM Switchgear has developed an innovative retrofit for obsolete circuit breakers to avoid the potential for failure and power outages.

The Whipp & Bourne MM74 HSCB retrofit process involves installing a GERAPID HSCB housed in the existing chassis.

The new breaker is fitted directly into the existing switchboard without the need for modification. All existing interlocks and winding mechanisms remain the same. Alternatively, we can supply the retrofit as a complete unit.

Applications include: DC Traction, Ships, Steel Works

Advantages:

– Efficient Upgrade For Aging Equipment
– Guaranteed Future Support
– Innovative Method Saves Time & Money
– Updated CAD Drawings
