CIBRE-60 series – 6-contact Circuit Breaker Analyser with motion analysis

The CIBRE-60 is a circuit breaker analyser for three-phase breakers in MV and HV installations. With six dry contact inputs you measure breakers with two interrupters per pole in one run, or two breakers at once. Each channel detects the main contact and the insertion resistor contact. Motion analysis via linear or rotary encoder, voltage inputs, and coil current logging. With 7-inch touchscreen, built-in printer, and optional Li-ion battery, fully field-ready in an IP67 case.

Applications

  • Commissioning of circuit breakers with two interrupters per pole: all six interrupters in one run
  • Periodic inspection: documenting open and close times and flagging deviations from the factory values and previous measurements
  • Factory Acceptance Test including motion analysis and coil current logging
  • Maintenance assessment of vacuum, SF6, oil, and air breakers in substations

Key features

  • 6 dry contact inputs: two interrupters per pole or two breakers at once; each channel detects main and insertion resistor contact
  • Contact timing for O, C, O-C, C-O, and O-C-O test modes
  • Motion analysis: Transducer Speed, Stroke, and Bounce
  • Optional: linear encoder 325 mm or rotary encoder
  • Voltage input V1 (analogue 0–250 V DC or ACpeak) and V2 (presence/absence 24–300 V DC or ACpeak)
  • Coil current measurement 0–20 A DC, 5 kHz
  • Timing accuracy 0.05% rdg ± 0.1 ms across time windows of 1 s, 10 s, and 20 s
  • 7-inch TFT colour touchscreen, readable in direct sunlight
  • Built-in 2.28-inch thermal printer plus storage on USB and internal memory (200 records)
  • Optional Bluetooth for wireless data transfer
  • Optional Li-ion battery 14.4 V / 6.9 Ah for off-grid field work
  • Protection class IP67 (case closed), operating temperature −10 to +60 °C

Which model fits your application?

Choose the CIBRE-60 for breakers with two interrupters per pole, or if you want to test two breakers at once. Six channels then capture all interrupters in one run.

If the breaker has one interrupter per pole, the CIBRE-30 is sufficient. With three channels, one per pole, it also measures all three phases in one run. If you only need contact timing without motion analysis, choose the CIBRE-L6 (6 channels) or the CIBRE-L3 (3 channels). For additional contact resistance measurements in micro-ohm range, the ARES-200D is a logical complement. For broader substation commissioning, the SUWI-120 (rental) is a suitable companion system.
