Exceptional Hydrophobicity and Environmental ResistanceBenefit from excellent hydrophobic properties and robust acid & alkali resistance. Our polymer electric insulators are optimally designed with silicone rubber housing, providing reliable performance even in highly polluted or moisture-rich environments. The self-extinguishing and UV-resistant surface treatment helps maintain integrity and safety over its extensive lifespan.
Reliable Performance Across Extreme TemperaturesThese insulators remain fully operational within a temperature range of -40C to +60C, ensuring faultless performance in freezing winters or scorching heat. Such adaptability makes them ideal for varied climates, supporting transmission and distribution lines throughout India and abroad.
Compliance with International Standards and Long Service LifeEach polymer electric insulator is manufactured in strict accordance with IS 14252, IEC 61109, and ANSI standards. With a minimum service life of 25 years and mechanical strength up to 120 kN, these insulators consistently deliver reliability and safety for utility and industrial applications.
FAQs of Polymer Electric Insulator:
Q: How is the polymer electric insulator installed for overhead transmission lines?
A: The insulator is mounted by attaching its forged steel and hot dip galvanized end fittings to the designated structure using shackle, pin, or disc type designs. Proper tightening and alignment ensure optimal mechanical and electrical performance.
Q: What benefits does the silicone rubber and FRP rod material provide?
A: Silicone rubber housing offers outstanding hydrophobicity, UV resistance, and fire resistance, while the FRP rod delivers high mechanical strength, making the insulator suitable for extreme weather, acid, and alkali environments.
Q: When should you consider using a polymer insulator over porcelain or glass types?
A: Polymer insulators are preferred in highly contaminated, coastal, or high humidity areas where self-cleaning, lightweight design, and excellent electrical properties are required for overhead transmission or distribution lines.
Q: Where can these insulators be applied?
A: These insulators are intended for use in overhead transmission and distribution lines, and are adaptable for utility, industrial, or renewable energy projects across urban, rural, and remote regions.
Q: What is the process for manufacturing and quality assurance?
A: Insulators are produced using silicone rubber molding around an FRP rod, with forged steel fittings subjected to hot dip galvanization. Each unit is tested for leakage current, tensile strength, and fire resistance according to IS, IEC, and ANSI standards, ensuring consistent quality.
Q: How does the excellent hydrophobicity of the insulator improve system performance?
A: Enhanced hydrophobicity prevents water film formation, reducing leakage current and minimizing flashover risk. This ensures continuous electrical insulationeven in rain or pollutionresulting in less maintenance and greater reliability.
Q: What packing options are available for safe transportation?
A: Polymer electric insulators are packed in robust carton boxes or wooden crates based on client specifications, ensuring damage-free delivery throughout India and for export shipments.
