Abstract

L'invention porte sur un disjoncteur à air économique du fait de la suppression d'un contact d'alliage du contact d'arc disposé du côté du dispositif d'extinction et séparé du contact en/hors. Une première résistance (31) est interposée entre un conducteur fixe (2) et un contacteur (4a) d'arc latéral fixe et une deuxième résistance (32) est interposée entre un élément mobile (7) et le contacteur (8a) d'arc latéral mobile. Lorsque l'élément mobile (7) est sous tension, le contacteur (8a) d'arc latéral mobile bute sur le contacteur (4a) d'arc latéral fixe, met le contact mobile (6) en contact avec un contact fixe (3), et sépare le contacteur (8a) d'arc latéral mobile du contacteur (4a) d'arc latéral fixe. Lorsque l'élément mobile est hors tension, le contacteur (8a) d'arc latéral mobile est mis en contact avec le contacteur (4a) d'arc latéral fixe ce qui sépare le contact mobile (6) du contact fixe et ouvre et ferme en pivotant le contacteur (8a) d'arc latéral mobile et le contacteur (4a) d'arc latéral fixe. Le courant traversant les deux contacteurs à l'ouverture ou à la fermeture est ainsi restreint par les deux résistances (31, 32).
