Dual-Mode Rotary Remote Racking System

CBS Arc Safe RRS-4

The RRS-4 remote circuit breaker racking device shares many of the same structural and mechanical features as the CBS ArcSafe RRS-1 model, making it one of the most portable, adjustable, and user-friendly remote racking systems available. What sets the RRS-4 apart from the RRS-1 and other remote racking systems on the market is its use of a dual-mode, source-programmable controller.

Thorne & Derrick can provide electrical safety equipment to substation engineers, cable jointers, overhead linesmen and utility workers with PPE to ensure worker safety when carrying out maintenance on LV-HV switchgear, substations, cables and electrical equipment.

CBS Arc Safe RRS-4 Operating Modes

CCM mode is a truly universal operating mode capable of racking virtually any rotary style breaker and requires minimal setup. In SEK mode, users create a custom profile for each breaker style being operated that includes real-time breaker location feedback. Both modes are considered “Source Programmable”, meaning that all setup and operation can be done in the field without factory assistance by following the setup procedures detailed in the manual.

The RRS-4 is powered utilising an AC/DC power system, meaning that the unit can be operated using standard 120VAC wall power or the internal batteries (which can provide approximately 30-60 racking operations depending on the application) when wall power is not available. The RRS-4 comes standard with both a corded 35 foot pendant station (extended lengths available) and a wireless radio remote pendant station capable of operating the unit from over 300 feet away.
