Proper SF6 gas handling is critical in the electrical transmission and distribution industry. This blog explores the importance of recovery, recycling, and reuse of SF6 gas to reduce environmental impact and comply with regulations. It highlights the key factors in selecting an SF6 recovery system, including efficiency, recovery time, and compliance standards. Additionally, it examines modern recovery system standards and the risks of using outdated equipment. Learn how DILO’s advanced SF6 recovery solutions help organizations enhance sustainability, reduce operational costs, and achieve near-total gas capture
SF6, also known as sulfur hexafluoride, is a synthetic gas with many useful industrial applications. It is mainly used as an insulator for gas insulated equipment in the transmission and distribution of power industry. Some states in the U.S., including California, have proposed or adopted limits and phase-outs for SF6 emissions, with California mandating the phase-out of SF6 in gas-insulated switchgear equipment by 2025.
Alternatives to SF6 gas are gaining traction in the Electrical Industry. Why are SF6 alternatives becoming popular? What available options are there to replace SF6 gas? Can users keep the same switchgear when looking for a replacement? Read on to learn all this and more.
When it comes to medium and high voltage circuit breakers, there is no better electrical insulator than SF6 gas. How does SF6 gas work in a circuit breaker? Why is circuit breaker electrical testing important? Are there SF6 gas handling considerations when working on an SF6 gas circuit breaker? Read on to learn all this and more.
