Our Company Designates 2025 as the “SF6-Free Product Development Year”
In 2025, our company will focus on achieving the goal of the “SF6-Free Product Development Year” by fully promoting the development of environmentally friendly products. This initiative was officially announced by our Chief Technical Engineer, Mr. Zhuang Yu, on December 12, showcasing our determination and commitment to advancing green development.
In recent years, our company has made significant progress in developing eco-friendly products, including:
- SF6-Free Solid Insulated Switchgear (10kV-24kV)
- SF6-Free Eco-Friendly Switchgear (10kV-24kV, 630A-2000A)
- SF6-Free Pole-Mounted Vacuum Circuit Breaker (Recloser) (10kV-40.5kV)
These products have been well-received by customers for their reliable performance and environmental benefits.
However, as the enforcement of Europe’s 2026 SF6-Free Standards for medium-voltage switchgear draws nearer, and the call for SF6 alternatives grows stronger in developed countries, market demand for SF6-free load break switchgear (C-Panel) and load break switch-fuse combination cabinets (F-Panel) is becoming increasingly urgent. In light of this, our company recognizes the pressing need to accelerate the development of the “SF6-Free Product Series” to meet the expectations of both domestic and international customers.
Comprehensive Discussions
And Strategic Planning
Recently, our senior management and technical teams have held more than ten specialized seminars, conducting an in-depth analysis of the latest technological advancements, product features, development trends, and technical pathways in the field. Leveraging our technical expertise, extensive product development experience, experimental data, and feasibility studies, we have identified the development of the “SF6-Free Product Series” as a key focus for 2025. A detailed development plan and timeline have been established, aiming to complete prototype in the first half of 2025.
The key stages of the development process were meticulously broken down during the meetings, including:
- Design and Molding
- Switch Mechanism and Vacuum Interrupters
- Simulation and Modeling Experiments
- Internal Testing and External Validation
Key “SF6-Free” Products
To Be Developed in 2025
In 2025, our company plans to develop the following SF6-Free product series:
- Green FL(R)N36Ring Main Units: SF6-free C-Paneland F-Panel with voltage ratings of 10kV-25.8kV.
- Green AISRing Main Units: SF6-free C-Panel (green LBS)and F-Panel (green LBS with fuse combination) with voltage ratings of 10kV-25.8kV.
- Green Pole-Mounted Load Break Switch: SF6-free LBSwith voltage ratings of 10kV-27.5kV.
Building Momentum for Future Success
Since 2024, our company has achieved significant milestones in SF6-free technology exploration, experimental verification, mold development, and critical component testing. These achievements have laid a solid foundation for the comprehensive push in 2025.
We have the confidence and ability to complete the development task of “SF6-free series products” and contribute to reducing greenhouse gas emissions and promoting the green transformation of medium-voltage switches and switchgear!
