  • Publication number: 20140246221
    Abstract: An electrical insulation system includes a first insulation layer having a first polymer and a first filler in the form of nanoparticles, and a second insulation layer including a second polymer and a second filler in the form of either chromium oxide, Cr2O3, iron oxide, Fe2O3, or a mixture of chromium oxide and iron oxide. At least one of the insulation layers is in the form of a solid and flat sheet. By an insulation system combining the first insulation layer with well dispersed nanoparticles and the second insulation layer filled with Cr2O3 particles and/or Fe2O3 particles, a synergetic effect of the two insulation layers provides an excellent shield and resistance of the insulation system against electrical discharges. The sheet material allows anybody to put together an insulation system without any special equipment.

  • Patent number: 7287423
    Abstract: A method and device for evaluating the capacity of a compressor (1) by air being allowed to flow out from a pressure tank (3) through an opening of known geometry. Following a calculation, the quantity of evacuated air is obtained. After this, a compressor (1) pumps back up to the initial pressure in the pressure tank (3). The compressor capacity (1) is established by comparing the time it takes for the compressor (1) to pump back up to the initial pressure in the pressure tank (3) with the time it takes when an acceptable compressor (1) pumps the same quantity of air. By the compressor capacity (1) is here meant the quantity of air which the compressor (1) delivers per unit of time at a given compressor speed and counter-pressure.

  • Patent number: 6702975
    Abstract: The invention concerns a method for manufacturing an electrical insulator that includes a body (1) and a coating (5, 5a) of insulating material arranged on the body (1) where the coating is applied onto the body in a screw-like form or a helical-like form, whereby the coating is applied by extrusion directly on the body (1). In this way, the build-up trapped pockets of air between the applied coating and the body (1) is prevented, and good adhesion is achieved. The invention also concerns an apparatus for manufacturing an insulator as well as the use of the said method or apparatus for the manufacturing of a high voltage insulator.

  • Patent number: 6140588
    Abstract: An arrangement with a conductor (15) intended to be on a high potential and a part (12) connected to ground and separated therefrom by at least a voltage receiving air gap (16, 17), comprising an insulating envelope (18) surrounding said conductor and at least a first member (9) of electrical insulating material arranged to screen off said ground part from said conductor. Said air gap is dimensioned to get such a high electrical field strength by possible sudden, strong voltage raises of said conductor, that air molecules in said air gap will be ionized. Said insulating envelope (18) and the insulating member (9) have surfaces arranged to receive electrical charges generated through said ionizing for creating a voltage over their thicknesses and decreasing the voltage drop in the air gap between the conductor (15) and the ground part (12).
