Sf6 Gas Recovery Equipment and SF6 Gas Evacuation and Refilling Unit

What is the Role of SF6 Gas?

1. Due to its excellent dielectric properties, the SF6 gas can insulate switchgear, circuit breakers, and disconnectors by extinguishing dangerous arcs. It can be used to achieve voltage electrical insulation, current interruption, and arc extinguishing in power transmission and distribution.

2. SF6 pressurized gas is used as an insulator in gas-insulated switchgear (GIS) because it has a much higher dielectric strength than air or dry nitrogen.

3. Electronic-grade high-purity sulfur hexafluoride is an ideal electronic etchant and is widely used in the field of microelectronics technology. It is used as a plasma etching and cleaning agent in the manufacture of large-scale integrated circuits such as LCD screens and computer chips.

4. It is used as a fluorine source in the production of fluorine-doped glass in the preparation of optical fibers, and as a dopant in the isolation layer in the manufacture of low-loss and high-quality single-mode optical fibers.

5. Sulfur hexafluoride can also be used as a tracer for the determination of air pollution, and the tracer distance can reach 100km.

6. Sulfur hexafluoride has good chemical stability and does not corrode equipment, and can be used as a refrigerant in the refrigeration industry (operating temperature between -45-0℃). As a refrigerant, it can replace Freon, has no damaging effect on the ozone layer, and meets the requirements of environmental protection and performance. It is a refrigerant with the potential for development.

Why Do We Have to Do SF6 Gas Recovery?

1. The price of SF6 is high.

2. SF6 is a major greenhouse gas with a high global warming potential.

3. When SF6 gas contains moisture, it will cause the following hazards to electrical equipment:

(1) In the presence of moisture, the SF6 decomposition product undergoes a hydrolysis reaction, which hinders the recombination of the SF6 decomposition product, reduces the recovery strength of the SF6 medium, and thus reduces the insulation properties of the equipment.

(2) Condensation may occur in the equipment. Since the moisture in the gas exists in the form of water vapor, when the temperature drops, it may condense inside the equipment and adhere to the surface of the equipment, easily causing surface discharge and causing accidents.

4. Leaks in gas-insulated equipment mean less gas to protect it from arcing. The result is signal loss, short circuits, malfunctions, and ultimately equipment failures that compromise safety and operations.

5. The decomposition products of sulfur hexafluoride gas under the action of electric arcs, such as sulfur fluoride, sulfur difluoride, sulfur tetrafluoride, etc., all have strong corrosiveness and toxicity.
