EQUIPMENT FOR MAINTENANCE OF HIGH-VOLTAGE DEVICES WITH SULFUR HEXAFLUORIDE (SF6) INSULATION

Abstract:
A device for dehydration and recovery of sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) used as an insulating gas in the accelerator mass spectrometer has been developed and manufactured. The device supports the required parameters of compartments: dew point not higher than –55ºC, purity not worse than 99.8%. The device ensures the smooth operation of the mass spectrometer for more than 2 years.
Keywords: accelerator mass spectrometer, sulfur hexafluoride, dehydration and recovery of insulating gas.
