42、2008 7 INTRODUCTION SF6technology is used in switchgear and controlgear, for more than 30 years. Its application is mainly in electric power equipment for rated voltages exceeding 1 kV up to the highest rated voltages for which switchgear and controlgear are manufactured. It is estimated that severa
43、l millions of the different types of SF6-filled units are currently in service. Three methods for gas containment are technically available, according to IEC 62271-1: controlled pressure system; NOTE 1 Controlled pressure systems are no longer used for new equipment, because of the unacceptable leak
44、age rate (see IEC 62271-203). closed pressure system: modern high-voltage electric power equipments. The standardized values for leakage rates are 0,5 % and 1 % per year and per gas-filled compartment; sealed pressure system: modern medium-voltage electric power equipments (commercially designated a
45、s “sealed for life products” or “hermetically sealed systems”). The tightness of sealed pressure systems is specified by their expected operating life. The expected operating life with regard to leakage performance is specified by the manufacturer. Preferred values are 20, 30 and 40 years. NOTE 2 To
46、 fulfil the expected operating life requirement the leakage rate of the SF6sealed pressure systems is considered to be less than 0,1 % per year. The long experience with the use of SF6in switchgear and controlgear evidences that a certain number of elementary precautions and procedures should be ado
47、pted in order to achieve operational, safety at work and environmental benefits such as: safe operation of the equipment; optimisation of resources and tools required; minimisation of out-of-service time for equipment; standard training of personnel handling SF6; reduction of the amount of gas relea
48、sed during handling operations down to the functional physical limit; avoidance of any deliberate release, for example flushing to the atmosphere; reduction of SF6losses and emissions during commissioning, service, operation and end-of-life treatment to a minimum. Recently, the latest practical recommendations on the use of SF6technology applied to switchgear and controlgear have been published by WG B3.02 of CIGRE Study Committee B3 11. This information i
