WIKA’s GDI-100 gas density indicator, a robust analog measuring instrument, has long been a trusted device for measuring and monitoring SF 6 gas in medium- and high-voltage equipment. For calibration-standard accuracy, WIKA offers the GDI-100-D digital gas density …
Sulfur hexafluoride is widely used as an insulating gas and arc quencher in electrical equipment. However, to maintain its effectiveness, SF 6 needs regular cleaning to get rid of harmful impurities. Handling also needs to be done with care, as SF 6 is a potent …
Pure SF 6 is an excellent insulator in electric switchgears, but humidity in the gas decreases its insulating ability and can also result in very harmful decomposition products for humans, machinery, and the environment. Created in partnership with a European utility …
WIKA designed and manufactures the GPU-2000, a unique unit for SF 6 gas handling. The company has recently signed an agreement with ABB, Inc., which intends to be the exclusive distributor in the United States for this gas-processing cart. On …
SF 6 -insulated switchgear is widely used in electrical transmission and distribution. The level of humidity in the sulfur hexafluoride, however, must be kept below its water saturation point. If the gas gets too wet, it loses some of its insulating properties; …
