The Kyle® Type NOVA three-phase, electronically controlled, vacuuminterrupting automatic circuit reclosers provide reliable, economical overcurrent protection, advanced metering, and automation systems for distribution circuits rated through 34.5 kV.

The NOVA recloser combines solid cycloaliphatic-epoxy polymerencapsulated vacuum interrupters with a reliable, lightweight operating mechanism that utilizes a magnetic actuator to provide a lifetime of trouble-free operation. The solid polymer system does not rely on a gaseous, liquid, or foam dielectric. The Type NOVA recloser is highly resistant to ozone, oxygen, moisture, contamination, and ultraviolet light.

The Type NOVA recloser is available with two configuration options: controlpowered interface and auxiliarypowered interface. Designed and tested to be compatible with Cooper Power Systems three-phase controls, these automatic circuit reclosers offer superior coordination, protection, and application capabilities.

Recloser operations are programmed in an electronic control with accurate characteristics and a host of advanced features. Precise operating tolerances enable close coordination with other protective devices on the system. When system requirements change, program settings are easily altered with no sacrifice of accuracy or consistency.

Compact and lightweight, NOVA reclosers are easily installed on poles or in substations. Mounting equipment is available for both pole and substation applications.
