  • Patent number: 10483042
    Abstract: A method of manufacturing a capacitive electrical device is disclosed. The method includes a) bonding a first electrical insulation film with a second electrical insulation film to obtain a single electrical insulation film that has a larger surface area than any of the first electrical insulation film and the second electrical insulation film has alone, b) providing a conductive layer onto the single electrical insulation film, and c) winding the single electrical insulation film and the conductive layer around a shaft to obtain a layer of the single electrical insulation film and a layer of the conductive layer wound onto the shaft, thereby forming the capacitive electrical device.

  • Publication number: 20190198241
    Abstract: The present invention refers to HV apparatus, in particular a HV dry current transformer, insulated with an insulating gel, or a voltage transformer, insulated with an insulating gel. The dry HV current transformer comprises at least two electrically conductive elements i.e. a head transformer cover, a head housing base, a core casing and a primary conductor. In the dry HV current transformer at least one of the electrically conductive elements has a coating made of solid insulating material separating the surface of the conductive elements from the insulating gel and adapted for limiting the electron emission from the conductive elements into the insulating gel. The voltage transformer comprises a bottom external housing, a bottom support flange, a core.

  • Patent number: 9870847
    Abstract: The method relates to an electric device comprising at least two electrodes which are separated by dielectric part. At least one of said electrodes is arranged to be at a floating potential. The dielectric part comprises at least one turn of at least one non-impregnatable electrically insulating film between two neighboring electrodes. The electrodes are bonded to adjacent turns of non-impregnatable insulating film, and adjacent turns of non-impregnatable insulating film, if any, are bonded to each other, so that the turns of non-impregnatable insulating film and the electrodes form a solid body. The invention further relates to a method of manufacturing an electric device, where bonding of at least one turn is performed upon forming of said turn, so that the bonding of said turn to the turn/electrode underneath will commence before said turn has been completely covered by the next turn.

  • Patent number: 6165325
    Abstract: A vacuum vessel for continuous or semicontinuous treatment of fatty oils in connection with deodorization includes spaces through which the oil which is to be treated is brought to pass. The vessel also contains U-tubes used to heat or cool the oil and perforated pipes arranged at the bottom of the vessel. Through these pipes stripping gas is led into the oil. The vacuum vessel is connected to a vacuum source. According to the invention the vessel has the form of a container with a mainly rectangular bottom with partitions parallel to a long side of the container. These partitions delimit channels connected in series through which the oil passes. The bottom of a first channel as seen in the direction of flow is arranged on a higher level than the second channel seen in the direction of flow such that the oil is forced to pass through the vessel by gravity. The vacuum vessel has a low height in relation to the length of its sides.
