PrimeGear ZX2

Compact switchgear for demanding applications in primary distribution

EU F-gas compliant

PrimeGear ZX2 is part of ABB’s gas-insulated indoor switchgear for primary distribution. PrimeGear ZX2 distributes medium voltage electric power safely and reliably in a variety of demanding utility and industry applications and is fully compliant with the IEC standards and the EU F-gas regulation (EU) 2024/573.


Compact switchgear for demanding applications

A compact medium voltage switchgear with highly technical parameters and ratings built as a single busbar design, based on natural origin gases (SF6-free). Due to the low-pressure design, PrimeGear ZX2 SF6 gas free can remain in service up to the point of repair, even in the unlikely event of a leak.

  • Rated voltage up to 24kv
  • Rated normal current up to 2500 A
  • Rated short-time withstand current up to 40 kA


Customer benefits

Reliable and flexible

Reliable and flexible

  • Compact and modular design for space optimization and the possibility for wall-mounting.
  • All panels are routinely tested, gas-filled pressure and relief duct installed in the factory – eliminating gas-work onsite – and enabling faster installation.
  • Very low maintenance switchgear as all high voltage parts are permanently protected in a gas tank from soiling, humidity, entry of foreign bodies and other environmental influences.
  • Due to the low-pressure design, PrimeGear ZX2 SF6 gas free can remain in service up to the point of repair, even in the unlikely event of a leak.
  • Automation and control features through current and voltage sensors and RTUs and monitoring and diagnostics capabilities (temperature, gas, partial discharge, etc).

High technical parameters and ratings

High technical parameters and ratings

  • Compliant with IEC standards and with the EU F-gas regulation (EU) 2024/573 – based on natural origin gases (Natural origin gases are N2, O2 and CO2 (and any mixture thereof) as per the IEC 62271-4 standard
  • High technical parameters and ratings (rated voltage up to 24kv and current up to 2500 A). Single busbar modular compact low-pressure design, based on natural origin gases (SF6-free)
  • Loss of service continuity LC2A and partition class PM.

Safe

Safe

  • High level of operator safety with front, lateral and arc protection, certified AFL 40 kA 1 s (according to IEC 62271-200).
  • Plug-in technology allows for safe, quick and easy installation. Pressure relief duct installed in factory.
  • Operator friendly: mimic diagram on panel front, no opening of doors required for manual operation.
  • Wide range of monitoring and diagnostic features for safe and reliable operations. All switching devices are motor-operated and can be controlled remotely.

Additional Features

  • Switchgear suitable for indoor applications
  • Vacuum circuit breaker type VD4X
  • Outer cone cable termination system
  • Integrated pressure relief ducts and optional pressure relief to the outside of the switchgear room
