SF6 decomposition Insulated Equipment for Siemens

Abstract: The increasing application of SF6 as an insulating gas has led to many studies on SF6 decomposition in gas-insulated equipment. In the presence-of an electric arc, spark or corona, SF6 decomposes to a wide variety of chemically active products which possess completely different properties from SF6.

The single-pole encapsulated 8DAB 12 is a SF6-free medium-voltage switchgear in the Siemens blue GIS portfolio. Switches and switchgear that use SF6 as the insulating, switching, and extinguishing gas remain an important part of the Siemens

2017-1-24Gas Insulated Switchgear (GIS) has been widely used in substations. The insulating medium used in GIS is sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) gas. However, the internal insulation defect existed in GIS would inevitably lead to partial discharge (PD), and cause the composition of SF6 to SOF2, SO2F2 and SO2 and other characteristic component gases.

In electrical equipment, SF6 is used for nearly all high-voltage (over 38kV) circuit breakers worldwide. It is also used in gas-insulated substations (GIS) and gas-insulated lines (GIL), highly suited to urban power transmission applications.

Worldwide, many TSOs intend to eliminate greenhouse gases for new installations of gas-insulated equipment and therefore continue to contribute to their voluntary self-commitment in SF 6 reduction. Until now, SF 6-free voltage transformers were available for voltages up to 245 kV.Recently, Siemens has succeeded to expand

Transmission Products from Siemens Energy. Siemens Transmission Products offers all products of high-voltage substations including bundling and their electrical integration to systems up to 1.200kV: Tranformers, gas-insulated switchgears, circuit breakers, surge arresters, disconnectors, instrument transformers, and bushings.

The first generation of SF6 circuit breakers was the lower voltage classes of 72kV and 145kV. As SF6 breaker technology improved, circuit breaker manufacturers introduced a dual pressure design for 145kV through 800kV applications, as well as air-blast breakers utilizing SF6 as the line-to ground dielectric insulation.

2021-2-18Our 8D series of gas-insulated switchgear represents a highly successful product concept. Since its introduction in 1968, Siemens has installed more than 26,000 bays world-wide. A total of well over 286,000 years of bay operation have since been recorded. Intensive research work, many years of system experience,
