SF6, or sulfur hexafluoride, is a colorless, odorless, non-toxic, and non-flammable gas that is used extensively as an electrical insulator in high-voltage applications. The SF6 gas system refers to the use of sulfur hexafluoride in gas-insulated switchgear (GIS), circuit breakers, and other electrical equipment for insulation and arc quenching purposes.
SF6’s importance in the electrical industry is rooted in its unique properties that ensure safety, reliability, and efficiency in high-voltage applications. However, balancing its benefits with environmental responsibilities continues to be a critical focus for the industry.
