CAUTION!
When medium-voltage equipment is operating, certain components are live, other parts may be in movement and some may
reach high temperatures. Therefore, the use of this equipment poses electrical, mechanical and thermal risks.
In order to ensure an acceptable level of protection for people and property, and in compliance with applicable environmental
recommendations, Ormazabal designs and manufactures its products according to the principle of integrated safety, based on
the following criteria:
• Elimination of hazards wherever possible.
• Where elimination of hazards is neither technically nor economically feasible, appropriate protection functions are
incorporated in the equipment.
• Communication about remaining risks to facilitate the design of operating procedures which prevent such risks,
training for the personnel in charge of the equipment, and the use of suitable personal protective equipment.
• Use of recyclable materials and establishment of procedures for the disposal of equipment and components so
that once the end of their service lives is reached, they are duly processed in accordance, as far as possible, with the
environmental restrictions established by the competent authorities.
Consequently, the equipment to which the present manual refers complies with the requirements of section 11.2 of Standard
IEC 62271-1. It must therefore only be operated by appropriately qualified and supervised personnel, in accordance with the
requirements of standard EN 50110-1 on the safety of electrical installations and standard EN 50110-2 on activities in or near
electrical installations. Personnel must be fully familiar with the instructions and warnings contained in this manual and in other
recommendations of a more general nature which are applicable to the situation according to current legislation[1].
The above must be carefully observed, as the correct and safe operation of this equipment depends not only on its design but also
on general circumstances which are in general beyond the control and responsibility of the manufacturer. More specifically:
• The equipment must be handled and transported appropriately from the factory to the place of installation.
• All intermediate storage should occur in conditions which do not alter or damage the characteristics of the equipment
or its essential components.
• Service conditions must be compatible with the equipment rating.
• The equipment must be operated strictly in accordance with the instructions given in the manual, and the applicable
operating and safety principles must be clearly understood.
• Maintenance should be performed properly, taking into account the actual service and environmental conditions in
the place of installation.
The manufacturer declines all liability for any significant indirect damages resulting from violation of the guarantee, under any
jurisdiction, including loss of income, stoppages and costs resulting from repair or replacement of parts.
Warranty
The manufacturer guarantees this product against any defect in materials and operation during the contractual period. In the
event that defects are detected, the manufacturer may opt either to repair or replace the equipment. Improper handling of this
equipment and its repair by the user shall constitute a violation of the guarantee.

For example, in Spain the “Regulation on technical conditions and guarantees for safety in high-voltage electrical installations” – Royal Decree

In view of the constant evolution in standards and design, the characteristics of the elements contained in this manual are subject
to change without prior notice. These characteristics, as well as the availability of components, are subject to confirmation by

switch by removing the earth from the cable. 3. Remove the key from the corresponding interlock.
7. Maintenance
For safety reasons, maintenance operations performed These mechanisms must be inspected when used under
directly on the driving mechanism must be performed extreme conditions (dust, salt, pollution). It is advisable to
WITHOUT any actuating levers inserted. carry out at least one operation during the inspections.
7.1. Preventive maintenance of the cgmcosmos-v cubicle with RAV driving mechanism
The actuating mechanisms and other elements outside Maintenance should be carried out every 5 years or 2000
the gas tank may require preventive maintenance; the operating cycles, unless, based on the conditions of use, the
frequency of this maintenance depends on the existing user, together with Ormazabal, considers otherwise.
environmental conditions (harsh environments, dust,
extreme temperatures, etc.) and must be established in line The recommended preventive maintenance sequence
with the experience and responsibility of the installer. is described in Ormazabal's MO-080 Operations
Manual.
Although the cubicles have been designed for a service life If any of the stated auxiliary components need to be
in accordance with IEC 62271-200, certain components can changed, the corresponding spare parts kit must be
be replaced and installed for various reasons. ordered, and the instructions given in the corresponding
documentation must be followed.
Certain spares and accessories must be installed in the
cubicle by specialised personnel. Please check with
Ormazabal.

9. Environmental information
cgmcosmos cubicles are defined as a pressure-sealed being released into the atmosphere. Extracting and
hermetic system, according to IEC 62271-1, which contains handling of SF6 must be carried out by qualified personnel,
sulphur hexafluoride (SF6)[11]. using a sealed piercing system.
SF6 is included in the Kyoto Protocol list of greenhouse For the usage and handling of the SF6, the indications listed
gases. SF6 has a GWP (Global Warming Potential) of 22,200. in IEC 62271-303 must be followed.
(TAR, IPCC 2001).
Management and treatment of the rest of materials must
At the end of the product's life, the contents of the SF6 must be carried out in accordance with the country’s current
be recovered for processing and recycling, preventing it legislation.
