To ensure maximum safety, servicemen and operators must read the A.2 "Safety
precautions" section before starting installation, maintenance and adjustment of
the device or before starting to operate it.
A.1.1 Description
The UR36/40 is a DC high-speed current-limiting circuit-breaker, with natural cooling. It has been
designed to ensure, on detection of a short-circuit, a trip free and rapid opening of its main
contact; and to quickly extinguish the arc by generating a constant over-voltage during the whole
interruption process.

A.1.4 Functions
Closing
When a closing pulse is received, the closing device (1) moves the fork (2), which closes the
moving contact (3) and applies the contact pressure to the main contacts (3 & 9). The pusher (4),
pushed by the moving contact (3), actuates the auxiliary contacts (5). The closing force is
absorbed by the shock absorber (6).
Holding
Once the main contact is closed, the contact pressure is maintained by the closing device (1),
either with a reduced holding current (E type) or with a permanent magnet (M type).
Opening
The circuit-breaker opens either through an over-current release or through an appropriate
opening order:
• An over-current that exceeds the maximum current setting value, causes the direct release
rod (7) to move up, which lifts (8) the fork (2), thus releasing the moving contact (3).
• Opening the breaker on remote order cuts off the holding current of the closing device
(E type) or applies a reverse current pulse (M type), which causes the fork (2) to retract.
The pusher (4) then opens the moving contact (3) and actuates the auxiliary contacts (5).
The arc generated between the main contacts (3 & 9) moves upwards between the horns (11)
into the arc chute (10) and is split by the baffles (12). The ionized gases are mostly neutralised
between the de-ionizing plates (13).

The instruction manual describes the authorized ways to install, operate and service the
device, and it may only be installed, operated and serviced in accordance with these instructions.
Sécheron will take no responsibility for injury or damage if the device is installed, operated and
serviced in any other way.
During installation, maintenance and operation of the device, technicians and operators are
responsible for:
• the device and the working area around the device;
• the personnel in the device area;
• ensuring that the safety test is fully completed before the high voltage circuit is connected.
Electricians should be certified according to local regulations with experience of similar types of
installations. They must have proven skills in reading and working with drawings and cable lists,
as well as knowledge of local safety regulations for power and automation. Work with the elec-
trical equipment must be performed by skilled or instructed technicians only.

B.2.1 Operation
When excess current flows through the main circuit, it creates a magnetic field in the tripping
device (11), inducing an upward movement (12) of its moving magnet (13). This movement
pushes the fork (15) upwards, releasing (10) the moving contact (17).
Important!
When the circuit-breaker trips following an over-current, the fork (15) remains in
closed position and needs to be reset (18) to its open position by giving an “OFF”
order to the closing coil.

b) Checking the X clearance: two possible ways:
• Measure the extension of the rod (2) out of the closing device (3) with a depth gauge or a
comparator.
– First, without pressure on the rod (2), measure the length A.
– Second, with pressure (6) applied axially onto the rod (2), press the fork (4) against both
catches (5), measure the length B.
– The A-B difference corresponds to the X clearance.
• Remove the arc chute (see § D.5.1 "Arc chute removal") and the spark arresters (7).
Insert the Sécheron’s “X” gauge (8) (or a feeler gauge) between the fork (4) and one of the
two catches (5).
Adjust the X clearance if the measurement is out of tolerances.
Adjustment
Add or remove the shims (9) on the closing device fixing bolts according to § D.11, until the
correct X clearance is obtained (adding shims (9) increases the X clearance).
Measurement
Measure the Y clearance on both arms (6) of the fork with the recommended Sécheron’s “Y”
gauge (or a feeler gauge). Where there is a difference between the sides, take the average value
Y = (Y1+Y2)/2.
Adjustment
Loosen the lock nut (2) and the nut (1), turn the nut (1) to adjust the Y clearance and retighten
the nut (1).
After adjustment, at least two open/closing operations must be performed prior to re-check the
clearance.
Note! Check and adjust the Y clearance after each setting of the “Id” value (see § C.13 "Maximum
current release (Id) setting").
If no specific Id value is determined when adjusting the Y value, set the ld to the mark “2” on the
direct release scale.

Requirement with the optional wiping contact mounted: ZAC = 0,1 +0.3/-0 mm. To see if this option
is mounted, see § G.7 "Wiping contact".
This measurement is performed with the circuit-breaker opened. A correct Z clearance setting is
important to correctly operate the auxiliary contacts (2), which signal the circuit-breaker status
(opened or closed). The auxiliary contacts may not operate when there is an incorrect
Z clearance.
Measurement
a) The SG101777P00001 spacer (1) must be inserted between the mobile (3) and the fixed (4)
contacts to block them in the completely opened position.
Note! If the optional “Position Indicator” is mounted on the housing (9), see § G.11.
b) Remove the transparent cover (5).
Adjustment
Loosen the lock nut (7) and nut (6), turn the nut (6) to adjust the Z clearance and retighten both.
After the adjustment, at least two open/closing operations must be performed before rechecking
the clearance.

G.2.1 Description
The circuit-breaker can be manually tripped by pushing the rod (1).
Pressure on the rod (1) causes the plate (2) to rotate, which lifts the fork (3), and releases the
moving contact (4).
Important!
When the circuit-breaker trips following a manual release, the fork (3) remains in
closed position and need to be reset (18) to its open position by giving an “OFF”
order to the closing coil.

G.3.1 Description
The indirect releases reduce the mechanical opening time of the circuit-breaker when required
by specific applications. Depending on the application, one of the two following indirect releases
has been selected according to Sécheron recommendations:
• The BIM5 is controlled by a CID-3 control unit and the colour of its axle end (10) is black.
• The BIM6 is directly connected to the battery and the colour of its axle end (10) is brass-
yellow.
The circuit-breaker can be remotely opened by a pulse sent to the coil (11), which actuates the
plate (2), thereby lifting (6) the fork (3) and opening the moving contact (4).
Important!
The duration of the pulse coming from a battery must not exceed 1 second to avoid
burning the coil!
When the circuit-breaker trips following an indirect release, the fork (3) remains in
closed position and need to be reset (18) to its open position by giving an “OFF”
order to the closing coil.

G.6.2 Operation
Refer to the figure above.
Closing
• Insert the handle (16, 24) into the lever (19) and push (17) downwards until it reaches its abut-
ment. For version B: the lock (26) must be in unlocked position (down) to perform this opera-
tion.
• Remove the handle (16, 24).
Note! A closing control pulse or the lifting of the fork will rise the lever (19) rapidly into its initial opened
position.
The fork controlling the main contact is now mechanically locked in closed position and can not
be opened by an opening control pulse into the coil.
Opening
CAUTION! Risk of finger crushing!
Once released, the lever (19) will move very fast if not retained by the handle (16,
24)!
Insert the handle (16, 24). Slightly push (18) it for a few millimetre upwards, then hold it hard in
order to avoid a very fast movement until the end of the opening stoke.

G.7.1 Description
This wiping contact applies a slight wiping movement to the main contact.
Two mechanisms operate these actions:
• The three shock absorbers (1) inserted in the cover (2) of the closing device (3) allow the
flange (4) to move quicker.
• On the lower connection (6), two springs (7) pushes the pin (8) of the moving contact (5) to
the other end of the oblong groove (11), enabling the moving contact (5) to open with a wiping
movement.
