SF6 A new concept in transformer insulation GAS
INSTEAD
O F O I L . . . that is headline news!
Sulphur Hexafluoride is a heavy, non-flammable gas and is both chemically and physiologically inert. These characteristics plus its high dielectric strength pin-pointed the heavy duty transformer field as a logical target. And so it turned out! SF6 instead of oil is now being used in high voltage transformers with the following advantages: * operations are much quieter · lighter construction permissible • less restriction in location · lower maintenance * fire-proof a n d explosion-proof In SF6, the electrical and electronics industries are finding a very useful product providing both electrical insulation and cooling. As in so many 'headline' products serving industry, the element S is part of the chem ical structure!
