Definitions
- the present invention relates to a device for Monitoring the vacuum of a vacuum switch.
- Vacuum switches can do their job, currents and in particular Interrupt short-circuit currents, only if a certain minimum vacuum in the vacuum interrupter is. If this is no longer the case due to a leak, you can in extreme cases, the shutdown will destroy the Tubes with possible further consequential damage. So far it was assumed that a vacuum loss in the Switch tube does not appear even after a long time. Because of the consequential damage associated with such a vacuum loss there is nevertheless a desire to find the inside pressure one in the Check the switchgear of the built-in vacuum switch can without removing the switch tube from the container.
- the present invention has for its object a Device for monitoring the vacuum of a vacuum switch to indicate that avoids the disadvantages mentioned, i.e. that a measurement with both open and closed Condition is possible during operation.
- the device according to the invention comprises a remotely interrogable Surface wave filter, which is a purely passive component represents and requires no power supply.
- the vacuum switching tube 1 shown in FIG its switching chamber a fixed first switching contact 2 and a second, movably arranged second Switch contact 3 on.
- the actual switching chamber is in the essentially formed from a ceramic tube 4 in which the two switching contacts 2 and 3 are arranged concentrically.
- the vacuum switch tube is closed by a flexible metal bellows 5.
- a remote-sensing pressure transducer 6 arranged by the remote query device 7 can be queried.
- the pressure cell shown in Figure 2 consists of a Bottom 8, a ring 9 and a lid a surface wave filter 10.
- the shape of this pressure cell can be square, but preferably be circular. Suitable dimensions for the box is 2 mm high and 10 mm in diameter for the pressure cell.
- the inside of the pressure cell can be evacuated or with be filled with a gas. In any case, the load cell hermetically sealed. Is the inside of the pressure cell evacuated, so learn the lid 8 and 10 of the pressure cell no curvature as long as the load cell remains intact Vacuum of the vacuum interrupter 1 is located. Will the vacuum disturbed, the pressure in the vacuum interrupter 1 increases, so the lid 8 and 10 of the pressure cell inside arched.
- Such a surface wave filter comprises, as an essential component, a substrate body 11, which in most cases is made of piezoelectric, preferably monocrystalline material.
- a suitable material for the substrate body 11 becomes quartz, lithium niobate, lithium tantalate and the like.
- an interdigital converter 12 On the surface of the substrate body 11 are an interdigital converter 12, one herewith connected antenna 13 and reflectors 14 are provided.
- the antenna 13 takes this query pulse and leads it to the interdigital converter 12, which an acoustic wave is generated from this in the substrate body 11, those from the reflector 14 back into the interdigital transducer 12 is reflected, and from there via the antenna 13 is emitted as a response signal 16.
- the reflector 14 can be coded in a known manner so that a corresponding coded response signal is reached. This response signal 16 is in turn picked up by the remote interrogation device 7.
- the ability of the surface acoustic wave device shown in Figure 3 to control the vacuum in a vacuum switching tube arises from the property of the substrate body 11 to be sensitive to draft and pressure. In particular, the Distance of the response pulses or their phase relationship from the push-pull condition dependent on the crystal. It should be noted that a surface wave device as shown in Figure 3 shown, no power supply needed as it is completely is passive.
- a surface wave device can also without the arrangement in a pressure cell according to Figure 2 as a sensor Find use because of the spread of acoustic Waves is also dependent on the ambient atmosphere, so that when air enters the vacuum interrupter, the wave propagation changed on the surface wave device becomes.
- the surface wave device about like the pressure sensor 6 in Figure 1, such is arranged that no shielding of the electromagnetic Waves from and to the remote interrogator 7 take place. This will e.g. thereby ensuring that the ceramic tube 4 for electromagnetic Waves is permeable.
