Designed for modern secondary distribution networks, our Outdoor Ring Main Unit (RMU) is a highly reliable, compact, and maintenance-free medium voltage switchgear. It integrates a fully sealed SF6 (or Eco-gas) insulated RMU within a robust, weatherproof metallic enclosure (Ring Main Kiosk). Engineered to withstand harsh outdoor environments—from high-humidity coastal areas to dusty industrial zones—it ensures continuous power supply and grid safety. Ideal for urban distribution, wind/solar power plants, and industrial parks.

Core Features & Advantages
Weatherproof & Anti-Corrosion Enclosure: Constructed with high-grade stainless steel (or optional C4/C5 marine-grade coating), ensuring an IP54/IP55 rating for the outer enclosure and IP67 for the inner gas tank. Completely flood and dust resistant.
Ultimate Safety (IAC Rated): Tested for Internal Arc Classification (IAC AFLR). Features an independent pressure relief channel directing arc gases downwards into the cable trench, maximizing public and operator safety.
Compact & Maintenance-Free: The fully insulated sealed tank isolates all live parts from environmental impacts. Design life exceeds 25 years with zero OPEX for the high-voltage compartment.
Smart Grid Ready (Automation): Can be easily upgraded to a Smart RMU. Compatible with motorized operation, Fault Passage Indicators (FPI), and integrated Remote Terminal Units (RTU) supporting IEC 61850 / DNP3 protocols for SCADA integration.
Modular & Flexible: Supports highly customizable configurations (e.g., CCV, CCC, CCF, VVV) using Load Break Switches (LBS) and Vacuum Circuit Breakers (VCB) to suit various network topologies.
