If the gas is too humid, it loses some of its insulating properties; corrosion and dangerous leaks can also occur. A complete SF<sub>6\u00a0<\/sub>handling instrument monitors the quality of the gas, dries it out when wet, and replaces it safely when necessary, thanks to a <span>sulfur hexafluoride tank<\/span>.<\/b><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.wika.com\/en-us\/power_transmission_and_distribution_sf6.WIKA\" rel=\"external\" target=\"_blank\">Sulfur hexafluoride (SF<sub>6<\/sub>)<\/a> has excellent dielectric and heat transfer capabilities. That\u2019s why it is the preferred insulator for power transmission and distribution (T&amp;D) switchgear. However, humidity in the gas can decrease its insulation strength and promote corrosion in the equipment, leading to <a href=\"http:\/\/blog-stage.wika.cloudpowered.services\/us\/\/products\/sf6-products\/critical-conditions-caused-sf6-leaks-avoid\/\">serious health and environmental problems related to leaks<\/a>.\u00a0Therefore, one of the top priorities for T&amp;D engineers is to monitor the humidity level of gas-insulated switchgear (GIS<u>)<\/u>. SF<sub>6<\/sub> handling is crucial. As the humidity in SF<sub>6<\/sub>\u00a0approaches the gas\u2019s water saturation point, operators must make sure the wet gas is replaced with dry gas.<\/p>\n<h2>Replacing Sulfur Hexafluoride<\/h2>\n<p>SF<sub>6<\/sub>\u00a0handling can be tricky. The gas is nontoxic, but it easily displaces oxygen in enclosed areas, which can asphyxiate nearby personnel. What\u2019s more, SF<sub>6<\/sub>\u00a0is a very powerful greenhouse gas \u2013 23,900 times more effective than CO<sub>2<\/sub>\u00a0in trapping heat. To ensure that no leaks occur, the T&amp;D industry relies on SF<sub>6<\/sub>-handling instruments that 1) are designed to address safety issues and 2) comply with strict emissions regulations.<\/p>\n<p>For decades, WIKA\u2019s experts have put their experience to work in developing better products that address market demands. Our latest SF<sub>6<\/sub> products \u2013 pumps, compressors, filters, humidity and gas condition measuring systems, sulfur hexafluoride tank\u00a0\u2013 use advanced technology to safely handle the gas.<\/p>\n<h2>WIKA\u2019s All-in-One Solution for SF<sub>6<\/sub> Handling<\/h2>\n\n      <div class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width:396px;\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blog-stage.wika.cloudpowered.services\/us\/\/files\/2016\/10\/gpu-2000-388x388.png\" alt=\"GPU-2000 SF6 gas handler\" \/><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">GPU-2000 gas handling unit with sulfur hexafluoride tank<\/p><\/div>\n    \n<p>To simplify operations, WIKA has combined gas handling \u2013 filling, evacuating, cleaning, and venting \u2013 in one instrument for GIS and linear accelerators. The cost-effective <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wika.com\/en-us\/gpu_b_2000_gpu_b_3000.WIKA\" rel=\"external\" target=\"_blank\">GPU-2000<\/a>comes equipped with a humidity filter, particle filter, vacuum pump for air, oil-free vacuum compressor for SF<sub>6<\/sub>, and gas humidity measuring system. The standard model has a 300-liter sulfur hexafluoride tank; there is also the option for a 600-liter tank or no tank at all.<\/p>\n<p>The system sends an alert when the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wika.com\/en-us\/gdht_20.WIKA\" rel=\"external\" target=\"_blank\">GDHT-20<\/a>, a humidity monitor and transmitter, registers a value close to the maximum level allowed for the gas. Operators then have the option to either remove the wet gas and replace it with new SF<sub>6<\/sub>, or circulate the wet gas through filters to dry it out.<\/p>\n<p>The GPU-2000 is fast, efficient, low-maintenance, and intuitive. User-friendly features include a 10-inch IntelliTouch touchscreen and all components mounted on a compact cart with solid-rubber tires. A SIL (Safety Integrity Level) 2 design means operators can virtually rule out user errors, gas escapes, and overfilling the SF<sub>6<\/sub> tank. With a USB port and WiFi readiness, this gas-handling unit is easily integrated into existing systems.<\/p>\n<p>Click <a href=\"https:\/\/app.salesfusion.com\/webapp\/#\/page-builder\/creator\/41\" rel=\"external\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a> to download the white paper <em>GPU-2000: WIKA&#8217;s Optimal Solution for Comprehensive SF<sub>6 <\/sub>Gas Handling<\/em>.\u00a0<span>For more information about the GPU-2000, sulfur hexafluoride tanks, and other innovative gas-handling equipment, contact our experts today.<\/span><span><\/span><\/p>\n<div style=\"width: 100%;float: left\"><a class=\"button white\" style=\"float: right\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wika.com\/en-us\/contact.WIKA\" rel=\"external\" target=\"_blank\"><span>Contact Us<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n<div><strong>Products mentioned in this article:<\/strong><\/div>\n<div><strong>\u2022 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wika.com\/en-us\/gpu_s_2000_gpu_s_3000.WIKA\" rel=\"external\" target=\"_blank\">GPU-2000 SF<sub>6<\/sub> service equipment with sulfur hexafluoride tank<\/a><\/strong><\/div>\n<div><strong>\u2022 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wika.com\/en-us\/gdht_20.WIKA?_ga=2.14381492.26353822.1598276626-1817709049.1477575778\" rel=\"external\" target=\"_blank\">GDHT-20 SF<sub>6<\/sub> gas density transmitter with MODBUS<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> output<\/a><\/strong><\/div>\n<p>[contact-form-7 id=&#8221;14552&#8243; title=&#8221;Blog Contact Form&#8221;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The level of humidity in SF6-insulated switchgear must be kept below its water saturation point.
