8.1USER SETUP:

This paragraph describes the parameters that determine the behaviour of the instrument. The first step is always.

Activating the Menu System. In normal operation, the instrument can be taken to programming mode by simply touching the touch-screen. From the main menus, items can be selected.

Touching the screen will display the following menu structure:

Set volume / Contrast

Open Operator Level

Open Supervisor Level

Open Tech Level

Exit

In the following, it is presumed that this menu is displayed on the screen.

Passwords and Numeric Values must be entered as required. Numeric or alphanumeric keypads appear as required. Just touch the appropriate buttons, using +/- to delete the last digit and RETURN to confirm the entry.

In some cases, the present value of a parameter will already be entered. You may then confirm or delete and re-enter.

8.2Set volume / Contrast

Using the three slider type controls on this screen, select contrast for best visibility. Be careful with the contrast, if you bring the slider to its extreme positions it is possible that the screen appears blank. If this happens, and your finger is still on the screen, then run it straight upwards until the screen contents reappears.

The - and + buttons are for fine adjusting the contrast. These provide better resolution than the sliders. Every 5 presses advance the slider one step.

9.0Open Operator Level This menu displays to following:

9.1

Operator ID

If the operator's name is required on the data printout, the name can be entered here.

If the mode "Force Operator ID by Name" is active, this screen will automatically appear after power up. If nothing is entered, normal operation is possible but data printout is not possible.

SF6 specifications

Innovation technology in the realm of electrical applications has increasingly turned its focus towards SF6, or sulfur hexafluoride. This gas is recognized for its excellent insulating properties and is widely utilized in high voltage equipment. SF6 is colorless, odorless, and non-toxic, making it a preferred choice for many industries, particularly in electrical utilities and power generation.

One of the main features of SF6 technology is its superior dielectric strength. The gas can prevent electrical discharges even in high voltage environments, which minimizes the risk of electrical failures and enhances the safety of electrical equipment. Furthermore, the thermal stability of SF6 allows it to withstand significant temperature variations, making it highly effective in various environmental conditions.

Another notable characteristic is its ability to quench electrical arcs. SF6 has a high electron affinity, meaning it can effectively absorb free electrons present during arcing, thereby extinguishing the discharge. This feature is crucial for circuit breakers and switchgear, ensuring reliable operation and protection against faults.

In addition to its insulating capabilities, SF6 technology supports a range of innovations in smart grid applications. The gas is compatible with advanced monitoring systems that facilitate real-time assessments of electrical equipment’s health and performance. These monitoring systems can detect potential issues before they escalate, promoting preventive maintenance and reducing downtime.

However, despite these advantages, the environmental impact of SF6 has raised concerns. As a potent greenhouse gas with a global warming potential significantly higher than CO2, industries are exploring alternatives and seeking ways to mitigate SF6 emissions. Innovations such as gas mixtures and the development of alternative insulating technologies are underway, aiming to address these challenges while maintaining reliability and efficiency.

Furthermore, ongoing research continues to improve the lifecycle management of SF6, encompassing better handling, recycling technologies, and effective disposal methods. Transitioning towards a circular economy in the use of SF6 presents an exciting frontier in electrical technology, marrying the benefits of reliable insulation with unwavering commitment to environmental stewardship.

In conclusion, innovation technology in SF6 embodies a blend of superior electrical performance and an urgent need for sustainable practices, marking a pivotal point in the evolution of electrical engineering and power management systems. As industries navigate the balance between performance and environmental responsibility, SF6 remains at the forefront of technological advancements in high voltage applications.
