36 kV SF6 Gas Circuit Breakers

36 kV SF6 gas breakers are a kind of breakers used at high voltage level. These breakers are used to control and interrupt high voltage electrical currents in power transmission lines. SF6 gas is a gas used in insulation and discharge processes.

The main parts of such breakers include the gas chamber, trigger mechanism, breaker electrodes and control circuits. The gas chamber is the section where SF6 gas is stored and controls the pressure of the gas. The trigger mechanism is used to open and close the breaker and the control circuits control the operation of the breaker.

The advantages of 36 kV SF6 gas breakers include high breaking capacity, fast breaking time, long life, low maintenance costs and reliability. In addition, the high insulating property of SF6 gas allows for a smaller sized breaker design. In addition, SF6 gas breakers are environmentally friendly and less harmful to the atmosphere when compared to other gases.
