Description
The RFS smart drop‑out auto recloser is a new-generation intelligent cutout switch integrating intelligent control, remote communication and auto-reclosing functions. It trips rapidly and recloses automatically when transient faults occur on overhead lines, significantly reducing outage duration and improving distribution network reliability. It can replace traditional drop-out fuses to achieve automation upgrade of distribution line protection.

Features
- Reclosing Logic: Supports 1 to 3 fast reclosing shots with adjustable delay from 0.1s to 60s. Adaptive reclosing strategy is available to suit complex grid conditions and clear transient faults efficiently.
- Communication & Automation: Standard RS485 port; compatible with 4G/5G, GSM, IEC 60870-5-104, DNP3.0 and Modbus protocols. Seamless integration with distribution automation systems (DAS / DMS).
- Fault Detection & Indication: Built-in overcurrent and short-circuit fault detection, with sensitive earth fault detection for accurate single-phase earth fault location. Local LED fault indication and remote fault alarm upload supported.
- Operation Modes: Electric close & trip, remote control and local manual operation available. Equipped with visual contact position indicator for intuitive on-site inspection by field crews.
Product Advantages
- Cost-Effective: Highly integrated design maintains excellent performance while cutting overall ownership cost, with short payback period (typically less than 2 years).
- Flexible Customization: Rated current (200A/250A/320A) and interrupting rating (8kA/6.3kA) are optional for all voltage classes to meet diverse project requirements.
- Dual-Standard Compliance: Designed and tested in accordance with IEC 62271-111 and IEEE C37.60, suitable for global markets.
- All-Weather Performance: IP65 high ingress protection rating, reliable operation under harsh outdoor conditions: high temperature, high humidity, high altitude and strong UV radiation.

Typical Applications
- Overhead distribution branch line protection (isolates transient branch faults to prevent widespread outages)
- Incoming-side protection for distribution transformers (replaces conventional drop-out fuses for automation)
- Interface of hybrid cable-overhead circuits (fast isolation of short-circuit faults)
- Rural grids and remote off-grid areas (works with solar power supply where PT source is unavailable)
