HY5WR-3.8/13.5 3kV Capacitor Type Zinc Oxide Arrester Composite Housing

Product Overview

Metal oxide arresters (zinc oxide arresters) produced and sold are currently the best type of overvoltage protection devices, widely used in power generation, transmission, transformation and distribution systems to protect the insulation of electrical equipment from overvoltage damage. Their core components adopt excellent "nonlinear volt-ampere" characteristics, greatly improving overvoltage current carrying capacity, thus bringing fundamental changes to arrester characteristics. Under normal operating voltage, the current through the arrester is only microampere level. When subjected to overvoltage, due to the nonlinearity of zinc oxide resistance, the current through the arrester instantly reaches thousands of amperes, and the arrester is in a conducting state, releasing overvoltage energy, thereby effectively limiting overvoltage damage to transmission and transformation equipment.

Composite housing zinc oxide arresters are a scientific research achievement combining organic insulation materials with traditional porcelain housing metal oxide arrester technology advantages. They not only have the advantages of porcelain housing metal oxide arresters, but also have good electrical insulation performance, high dielectric strength, anti-tracking, anti-corrosion, heat resistance, cold resistance, aging resistance, explosion-proof, hydrophobicity, and good sealing performance.

HY5WR-3.8/13.5 3kV capacitor type zinc oxide arrester is suitable for AC 220kV and below power generation, transmission, transformation and distribution systems, used to limit the amplitude of lightning and system internal operating overvoltages to specified levels, and is the basic equipment for system insulation coordination. It is the ideal lightning protection component for integrated, modular medium and high voltage transmission and transformation complete equipment. Arrester models include HY5WR-3.8/13.5, HY5WR-5/13.5, HY5CR-3.8/12.0.
