Businesses working with sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) are aware of the importance of taking precautions against accidental emissions. Common fittings for safe SF6 handling include compression fittings, flange couplings, flare fittings, National Pipe Thread (NPT), parallel thread, and tongue and groove fittings. The sealing principle allows equipment to be secured without a sealing compound, maintaining high levels of gas tightness even under extreme pressure.Eurocaltech also offers couplings and valves for alternative gases, such as C4-FN for gas mixtures, C5-FK for gas mixtures, and DILO Couplings CA for gas mixtures based on dry-air or clean-air. These connections remain pressure-tight even when coupling or uncoupling and have leak rates equal to or less than 1x10-8 mbar l/s. To prevent cross-contamination, DILO alternative gas couplings have a different thread pitch or size than standard SF6 couplings and can be color-coded for technicians.Eurocaltech offers a variety of f adapter kits that connect to many common connections, including the DN8 Testing and Filling Adapter Kit, which includes the necessary couplings for all DILO measuring devices and compatible couplings for most breakers. The kit also includes a high-quality SF6 regulator that can be used for filling SF6 gas compartments or used to reduce gas when performing gas analysis on a bottle of gas.
The DN20 V3 Adapter Kit contains Eurocaltech DN20 adapters for commonly used SF6 gas compartment connections, including adapters to convert DILO's DN20 self-sealing male coupling to various types of connections. The kit also includes color-coded plastic coupling covers and protective eyewear.
