Abstract: The present application relates to a flexible bag for an oil expansion tank of a transformer, an oil expansion tank comprising the flexible bag and a transformer comprising the oil expansion tank comprising the flexible bag. Further, the present application relates to a method for producing the flexible bag and use of the flexible bag in an oil expansion tank of a transformer. In particular, the present application relates to an flexible bag for an oil expansion tank of a transformer, comprising a first and a second elastomer layer, and a reinforcement layer comprising a fabric, the reinforcement layer arranged between the first elastomer layer and the second elastomer layer; and the first and the second elastomer layers comprising each at least one elastomer selected from at least one of vulcanized nitrile butadiene rubber, vulcanized hydrogenated nitrile butadiene rubber or vulcanized epichlorohydrin rubber.

Abstract: A surge arrester and a method for manufacturing the surge arrester are disclosed. The surge arrester includes a preassembled active part extending in a longitudinal direction, and a separately produced flexible housing defining a bore in the longitudinal direction and having an opening at an end surface of the flexible housing. The flexible housing is arranged surrounding the active part via the bore and in contact with the active part. The contact causes a deformation of the flexible housing in a circumferential direction, and the deformation generates a pressure applied on the active part along a radial direction.

Abstract: A surge arrester (100) and a method for manufacturing the surge arrester (100), the surge arrester (100) comprises a preassembled active part (110) extending in a longitudinal direction (Y), and a separately produced flexible housing (120) defining a bore (121) in the longitudinal direction (Y) and having an opening at an end surface (126) of the flexible housing (120), the flexible housing (120) is arranged surrounding the active part (110) via the bore (121) and in contact with the active part (110), the contact causes a deformation of the flexible housing (120) in a circumferential direction (C), and the deformation generates a pressure applied on the active part (110) along a radial direction (R).
