Sulfur Hexafluoride (SF6) is widely used in the electric industry. It is a very stable molecule, which makes it superior to other previously used mediums due to its insulation properties, dielectric strength, and arc quenching abilities. In short, the technical and economic performance realized by electrical equipment manufactures and electrical utilities using SF6 is unmatched.
A large percentage of the SF6 being used today is in closed system applications. As long as the SF6 remains within the closed system no emissions to the atmosphere will occur. However, in reality some SF6 will be emitted during the systems life cycle, so the emphasis is to minimize the amount of SF6 released.
