  • Patent number: 11107609
    Abstract: The invention relates to a contamination protection device (10) for high-voltage insulators (3), and to an assembly of a contamination protection device (10) and a high-voltage insulator (10). The contamination protection device (10) is designed for fastening to the insulator cap (5) of the high-voltage insulator (3) and has a protective shield (11), which extends radially around a feed-through opening (12) for the connection element (7) of the insulator cap (5), the feed-through opening (12) being surrounded, on the one side of the protective shield (11), by a fastening region (23) for interlocking connection to the insulator cap (5). On the other side of the protective shield (11), two eyes (14) for the insertion of a tab element (30) are provided and a tab element (30) is provided.

  • Patent number: 11107606
    Abstract: The invention relates to a contamination protection device for high-voltage insulators and an arrangement consisting of the contamination protection device and a high-voltage insulator. The contamination protection device for high-voltage insulators according to the invention is designed to be mounted on the insulator cap of the high-voltage insulator and comprises for this purpose a mounting region, which is designed to be interlockingly connected to the insulator cap and comprises a through-opening for the connecting element of the insulator cap. A protective shield is furthermore provided, which extends radially around the mounting region in order to cover the high-voltage insulator. The arrangement comprises a high-voltage insulator with an insulator cap and a contamination protection device disposed on the insulator cap, wherein the contamination protection device is designed according to the invention and is connected to the insulator cap by means of an interlocking connection.

  • Patent number: 8654001
    Abstract: A method for detecting electromagnetic threats to an aircraft, wherein electromagnetic fields are measured, and in the case of an arising threat to the aircraft being detected, countermeasures are taken, characterized by the following steps: measuring the frequency and the amplitude of at least one electromagnetic field in the frequency range from 9 KHz to 40 GHz; analyzing the measured results and determining the field intensity in relation to each measured frequency; comparing the field intensity in relation to each measured frequency with stored limiting values or qualification values, wherein the aircraft is qualified for field intensities that are lower than the limiting values; and providing the result in the form of a warning signal in the case of approaching or exceeding a limiting value.
