Abstract

The invention relates to a sulfur hexafluoride high-voltage circuit breaker. The sulfur hexafluoride high-voltage circuit breaker used in cold regions comprises a high-voltage circuit breaker equipment body. A sulfur hexafluoride gas chamber, a density relay and a transmission mechanism are arranged in the equipment body. The sulfur hexafluoride gas chamber is filled with sulfur hexafluoride gas. The high-voltage circuit breaker further comprises sulfur hexafluoride gas liquefaction prevention plant. The sulfur hexafluoride gas liquefaction prevention plant comprises a gas storage tank filled with the sulfur hexafluoride gas and a connecting pipe. One end of the the connecting pipe is connected onto a gas supplement port or a dedicated connection port of the high-voltage circuit breaker body in a sealing manner, and the other end of the connecting pipe is connected onto the gas storage tank to communicate the gas storage tank and the sulfur hexafluoride gas chamber. A heat insulating layer is arranged outside the gas storage tank.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to high-voltage electrical equipment, in particular to a sulfur hexafluoride high-voltage circuit breaker. Background technique [0002] Because sulfur hexafluoride gas has excellent insulation and arc extinguishing properties, it is an ideal insulation and arc extinguishing medium in high-voltage circuit breakers, and has been widely used at home and abroad. The excellent performance of sulfur hexafluoride gas is realized at a certain density and pressure. When the temperature drops to a certain level, the sulfur hexafluoride gas inside the high-voltage circuit breaker will liquefy, and its liquefaction temperature is related to density and pressure. The greater the density, the higher the liquefaction temperature. Due to the liquefaction of sulfur hexafluoride gas inside the high-voltage circuit breaker, part of the gas becomes liquid, the density and pressure of sulfur hexafluoride gas will gradually decrease, which will c...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0005] 1. Use mixed gas (sulfur hexafluoride / N 2 ; Sulfur hexafluoride / CF4, etc.) as an arc extinguishing and insulating medium, its disadvantages are: the breaking power capacity of high-voltage circuit breakers is only about 80% of the original, and the manufacturing technology requirements are high and the cost is expensive; the proportion of mixed gas The mixing method requires a reasonable ratio, otherwise the insulating properties and arc extinguishing properties of the mixed gas will be severely weakened. At the same time, once the gas leaks, but because the two high-pressure gases are mixed together, the leakage rate is different, and the supplementary gas process is very complicated. Failure to meet the technical requirements of the product has brought a lot of inconvenience to the use, testing and management of the product, so it cannot be promoted

[0006] 2. Reduce the pressure of sulfur hexafluoride to reduce the liquefaction point of sulfur hexafluoride gas. However, due to the reduction of gas pressure, the gas density also decreases, resulting in a decrease in the arc extinguishing performance and insulation performance of high-voltage circuit breakers.

The disadvantage of this method is: since the sulfur hexafluoride gas of the tank-type sulfur hexafluoride circuit breaker is well sealed in the tank, it can only be heated by heat conduction, the structure is complex, and the thermal efficiency is low. Direct heating will also accelerate the aging of the sealing ring of the tank-type sulfur hexafluoride circuit breaker, causing air leakage and serious safety problems; The following measures are taken: that is, a heater is installed inside or outside the sulfur hexafluoride gas chamber of the high-voltage circuit breaker, and is automatically controlled by an intelligent temperature controller. When the ambient temperature drops below a certain temperature, the thermostat turns on the power supply of the heater Heating the sulfur hexafluoride gas chamber to keep the temperature of the sulfur hexafluoride gas chamber above a certain temperature

[0009] The technology of directly heating the sulfur hexafluoride gas of the high-voltage circuit breaker is very simple in principle, but the current technology is very difficult to implement, because the sulfur hexafluoride gas of the high-voltage circuit breaker is sealed in the high-voltage circuit breaker body In the sulfur hexafluoride gas chamber, and the voltage of the high-voltage circuit breaker is very high, it is generally difficult to directly heat the sulfur hexafluoride gas chamber

In this way, the heating effect is not very ideal, or it may cause serious problems such as rapid aging of the sealing ring and air leakage.

[0010] To sum up, the current SF6 high-voltage circuit breaker has the problem of liquefaction of SF6 gas in cold regions, which brings hidden dangers to the safe operation of the power grid, so innovation is urgently needed
