Definitions

  • the invention relates to a surge arrester with a gas-tight housing in which cone-shaped electrodes face each other forming a gap, which are inserted into the ends of a tubular insulating body, on the inside of which there is at least one line of electrically conductive material as an ignition line over part of the tube length in the direction extends from one to the other electrode and is connected to an electrode.
  • Such a surge arrester is known from DE-AS 23 46 174.
  • the response voltage should be unaffected by the distance from the ignition line to the counter electrode.
  • the priming line connected to the one electrode extends beyond the height of the gap and the distance between the priming line and the counter electrode is greater than the gap between the two electrodes.
  • arresters that do not contain radioactive substances have the following property: If the arresters are brought from the bright room into the dark, their ignition voltage is about 2% above that at room brightness. If the arresters are in the dark for several hours or days, their ignition voltage rises to twice the value, with the collective scattering between 2% and 100% drift.
  • radioactive preparations are suitable for the pre-ionization of the gas filling, the half-life of which is of the order of the component life.
  • tritium is also used as the gas and promethium 147 or radium 226 as the solid substance.
  • the serious disadvantage of using radioactive preparations is that because of their powdery or gaseous nature there is always the possibility of contamination of the environment. Radioactive substances therefore require extensive safety precautions from the manufacturer of arresters as well as from their customers. The disposal of defective arresters is also problematic.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a gas discharge surge arrester in which no radioactive substances are used and which has only the 2% drift of the ignition voltage in the dark, which is caused by the dependence of the triggering coefficient on the light.
  • a surge arrester of the type mentioned at the outset that the ignition line 3 is electrically conductively connected at both ends to the respective electrode 1, 2 and preferably has an interruption outside the gap space, the length (I) of which is less than that Gap length (c).
  • the electrodes are provided with an activating compound on their active surfaces, the triggering coefficient of which is greater than the triggering coefficient of the material of the primer, for which pencil graphite is particularly suitable.
  • tubular insulating body is made of glass, it is advantageous to roughen the insulating body at least on its inside by etching to apply the primer.
  • the distances between the ignition lines are first made too small and, after the arrester has been sealed gas-tight, they are burned to the desired size by applying a voltage and igniting the arrester. It is expedient to add 0.1% to 10% oxygen to the gas atmosphere of the arrester when the electrodes melt, so that the combustion of the graphite used as the material for the primer is accelerated.
  • a free electron is sufficient to ignite the arrester, and this does not necessarily have to come from a radioactive substance, but may have been generated as a result of the radiation or the activation mass or the field emission on the arrester electrodes or the field emission along the break in the ignition.
  • the surge arrester shown schematically in section in the figure consists of egg Nem gas-tight housing in which frusto-conical electrodes 1, 2 form a gap opposite each other, which are inserted into the ends of a tubular insulating body 4.
  • frusto-conical electrodes 1, 2 form a gap opposite each other, which are inserted into the ends of a tubular insulating body 4.
  • the ignition line 3 is connected to both electrodes 1, 2.
  • the ignition line 3 is interrupted outside the combustion chamber over the length 1, 1 being smaller than the electrode distance c.

Claims (6)

1. Parasurtension à décharge dans un gaz possédant une enveloppe étanche au gaz dans laquelle des électrodes tronconiques (1, 2) sont disposées l'une en face de l'autre en formant un intervalle et sont insérées dans les extrémités d'un corps isolant tubulaire (4), dont le côté intérieur porte au moins un trait (3) d'un matériau électriquement conducteur servant de trait d'amorçage et s'étendant sur une partie de la longueur du tube dans la direction allant de l'une à l'autre électrode, en étant relié à une électrode, caractérisé en ce que le trait d'amorçage est relié électriquement aux deux extrémités à l'électrode correspondante (1, 2), et présente une interruption située de préférence en dehors de l'espace où se trouve l'intervalle, et dont la longueur (1) est inférieure à la longueur (c) de l'intervalle.
2. Parasurtension selon la revendication 1, caractérisé en ce que les surfaces actives des électrodes (1, 2) sont pourvues d'une masse d'activation dont le coefficient de déclenchement est plus grand que le coefficient de déclenchement du trait d'amorçage (3).
3. Parasurtension selon la revendication 1 ou 2, caractérisé en ce que le trait d'amorçage (3) est en plombagine.
4. Parasurtension selon une des revendications 1 à 3, caractérisé en ce que le corps isolant tubulaire (4) est en verre et est rendu rugueux par attaque chimique sur son côté intérieur, au moins.
5. Procédé pour fabriquer un parasurtension avec une interruption dans le trait d'amorçage, selon la revendication 1, caractérisé en ce que l'on rend d'abord la distance entre les parties du trait d'amorçage trop petite puis, après fermeture étanche au gaz du parasurtension, on les brûle à la dimension de consigne par application d'une tension et amorçage du parasurtension.
6. Procédé selon la revendication 5, caractérisé en ce que l'on ajoute 0,1 % à 10 % d'oxygène à l'atmosphère gazeuse du parasurtension, lors de l'insertion par fusion des électrodes (1, 2), pour accélérer la combustion du graphite utilisé comme matériau pour le trait d'amorçage (3).
