How Humidity Affects the Safety of SF6-Insulated Equipment
Leo Lopez | SF6 Gas SolutionsSulfur hexafluoride (SF 6 ) is a gas widely used in switchgear in power plants, and the electricity transmission and distribution sector for its first-rate dielectric properties. This gas is an excellent insulator, up to three times better than air and nitrogen, and it …
SF6 Handling: Why the Full Lifecycle of Product Matters
Leo Lopez | SF6 Gas SolutionsThe dielectric and heat transfer characteristics of sulfur hexafluoride (SF 6 ) has made it the insulator of choice for circuit breakers, disconnectors, and switchgear in the power transmission and distribution industry. For decades, the T&D sector has relied …
How to Minimize Emissions of Environment-Damaging SF6
Leo Lopez | SF6 Gas SolutionsSulfur hexafluoride (SF 6 ) has been used for decades as an insulator in power plants and electrical transmission and distribution. This gas has excellent dielectric properties, almost three times better than air and nitrogen, and it works well as arc quencher in …
Pressure Measurement: Understanding PSI, PSIA and PSIG
Robert Lukat | PressurePressure measurement is all about PSI. That’s because pounds per square inch (PSI) is the most common unit for measuring pressure in the U.S. It’s important to understand what PSI means and how it is used, as pressure measurement is an important part of life in the …
