Moving away from SF6: the technological breakthrough
Our commitment to lead the sustainable transformation of electrical grids has driven us to develop an alternative innovative technology, without the use of SF6 as dielectric gas up to 24 kV, which guarantees a lower environmental impact on our planet.
A collaborative process with our customers to identify the key attributes and requirements our new ranges of primary and secondary switchgears should meet
Thus, we have the best alternative for the distribution grid based on the following requirements:

Natural origin gas
- Natural air components
- Industrially manufactured
- Fully accesible

Minimum filling pressure
- Well-known behaviour
- Proven tightness

Digital native
- Sensoring
- Automation

Easy operation & exploitation
- Innovative load break switch
- Circuit-breaker with proven technology

Compact dimension
- Similar footprint
- Optimised dimensions
State-of-the-art technology of integral gas insulation
