Description
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Überspannungsableiter mit mindestens einer Funkenstrecke und einem dazu in Reihe geschalteten elektrischen Element, wobei das elektrische Element aus einem Bauteil mit zwei Elektroden besteht, zwischen denen ein Granulat aus elektrisch leitfähigem Werkstoff angeordnet ist, welches die Elektroden elektrisch leitend miteinander verbindet, wobei der das Granulat haltende Raum von einer temperaturfesten Isolierstoffhülle umgeben ist.The invention relates to a surge arrester having at least one spark gap and an electrical element connected in series, wherein the electrical element consists of a component with two electrodes, between which a granulate of electrically conductive material is arranged, which electrically conductively connects the electrodes, wherein the granulate holding space is surrounded by a heat-resistant Isolierstoffhülle.
Im Stand der Technik sind Überspannungsableiter, insbesondere Blitzstromableiter bekannt, die eine blitzstromtragfähige Funkenstrecke mit mehreren in Reihe geschalteten Funkenstrecken aufweisen. Solche Einrichtungen werden zur Vermeidung von Schäden infolge eines Blitzeinschlages oder eines sonstigen Überspannungsfalles eingesetzt. Die Funkenstrecken werden zum transienten Potentialausgleich eingesetzt, wobei auch der nachfolgende Netzfolgestrom gelöscht werden soll. Die bisherigen Lösungen beruhen darauf, dass mehrere Funkenstrecken in Reihe geschaltet werden, um das Folgestrom-Löschvermögen zu verbessern. Daraus resultiert aber eine unerwünschte Erhöhung der Ansprechspannung. Je mehr Funkenstrecken in Reihe geschaltet werden, desto größer ist die Ansprechspannung des Systems.Surge arresters, in particular lightning current arresters, which have a spark-current-carrying spark gap with a plurality of spark gaps connected in series, are known in the prior art. Such devices are used to prevent damage due to a lightning strike or other overvoltage case. The spark gaps are used for transient equipotential bonding, whereby the subsequent follow-on current should also be deleted. The previous solutions are based on the fact that several spark gaps are connected in series in order to improve the sequence current extinguishing capability. However, this results in an undesirable increase in the response voltage. The more spark gaps are connected in series, the greater the response voltage of the system.
Um die Ansprechspannung und damit den Schutzpegel zu reduzieren kann beispielsweise eine kapazitive Steuerung der Funkenstrecken eingesetzt werden. Auch hierbei sind technische Grenzbedingungen gegeben, die bei einer Erhöhung der Funkenstreckenanzahl ebenfalls die Ansprechspannung erhöhen. Zudem ist der schaltungstechnische Aufwand durch die Vielzahl der Funkenstrecken und die gegebenenfalls erforderlichen zusätzlichen Schaltungsmaßnahmen, wie beispielsweise kapazitive Steuerungen, aufwendig.In order to reduce the response voltage and thus the protection level, for example, a capacitive control of the spark gaps can be used. Also in this case technical boundary conditions are given, which also increase the response voltage with an increase in the spark gap number. In addition, the circuit complexity due to the large number of spark gaps and possibly required additional circuit measures, such as capacitive controls, consuming.
Bei den bekannten Funkenstrecken wird ebenso, wie bei dem erfindungsgemäßen Überspannungsableiter bei einem Blitzeinschlag zunächst durch die Überspannung zwischen PE (Erdleiter) und den spannungsführenden Leitern die Funkenstrecke gezündet, wenn die Ansprechspannung der Funkenstrecke erreicht ist.In the known spark gaps as well as in the surge arrester according to the invention in a lightning strike initially ignited by the overvoltage between PE (ground conductor) and the live conductors, the spark gap when the operating voltage of the spark gap is reached.
Bei den bekannten Systemen wird die erste Funkenstrecke, die also direkt an den spannungsführenden Leiter angeschlossen ist, so ausgebildet und deren durch die Elektroden gebildete Anode und Kathode derart beabstandet, dass eine entsprechende Ansprechspannung erreicht wird. Je geringer der Abstand der Elektroden, desto geringer ist die Ansprechspannung. Bei dem bekannten System fließt nach dem Zünden ein Kurzschlussstrom und an jeder folgenden Funkenstrecke baut sich ein hoher Spannungsabfall auf, der sich durch die Vielzahl der Funkenstrecken aufsummiert, so dass entsprechend der Anzahl der Funkenstrecken die Lichtbogenbrennspannung größer als die Netzspannung ist, so dass kein Netzfolgestrom entsteht.In the known systems, the first spark gap, which is thus connected directly to the live conductor, so formed and their anode and cathode formed by the electrodes spaced such that a corresponding response voltage is achieved. The smaller the distance between the electrodes, the lower the response voltage. In the known system, a short-circuit current flows after ignition and at each following spark gap, a high voltage drop builds up, which adds up by the plurality of spark gaps, so that according to the number of spark gaps, the arc voltage is greater than the mains voltage, so that no Netzfolgestrom arises.

Ausgehend von diesem Stand der Technik liegt der Erfindung die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Überspannungsableiter zu schaffen, der ein System mit möglichst nur einer Funkenstrecke und damit entsprechendem Ansprechverhalten bildet und das Folgestromlöschvermögen einer Mehrfachfunkenstrecke aufweist.Based on this prior art, the present invention seeks to provide a surge arrester, which forms a system with as possible only a spark gap and thus appropriate response and has the Folgestromlöschvermögen a multiple spark gap.
Zudem soll der Installationsaufwand und der Aufwand an elektrischen und elektronischen Bauteilen gemindert werden.In addition, the installation costs and the cost of electrical and electronic components should be reduced.
Zur Lösung dieser Aufgabe schlägt die Erfindung vor, dass das Granulat in loser Schüttung in dem zwischen den Elektroden und der Isolierstoffhülle ausgebildeten Raum angeordnet ist, und dass das Granulat aus Graphitkörnern oder -kugeln besteht.To achieve this object, the invention proposes that the granules are arranged in bulk in the space formed between the electrodes and the Isolierstoffhülle, and that the granules consist of graphite grains or balls.
Das Bauteil mit den beiden Elektroden und dem dazwischen befindlichen Granulat aus elektrisch leitfähigem Werkstoff ist vor dem Stromfluss im Falle eines Überspannungsereignisses sehr niederohmig. Im Falle eines Überspannungsereignisses, beispielsweise eines Blitzeinschlages, werden zwischen den Granulatkörnern viele kleine Funkenstrecken gezündet, so dass bei der entsprechenden Strombelastung, bedingt durch die Gegenspannungen der zahlreichen Übergänge zwischen den Granulatkörpern eine hohe Dämpfung des Netzfolgestroms erreicht wird, so dass der Netzfolgestrom erlischt.The component with the two electrodes and the intervening granules of electrically conductive material is very low impedance before the current flow in the event of an overvoltage event. In the case of an overvoltage event, such as a lightning strike, many small spark gaps are ignited between the granules, so that at the corresponding current load due to the reverse voltages of the numerous transitions between the granules high attenuation of the Net sequence current is reached, so that the follower current goes out.
Um den Zusammenhalt des Bauteiles, gebildet aus den Elektroden und dem leitfähigen Granulat, zu gewährleisten, ist die entsprechend temperaturfeste Isolierstoffhülle vorgesehen. In der einfachsten Form ist ein solches Bauteil in Reihe zu einer Funkenstrecke mit entsprechend niedrigem Ansprechpegel, beispielsweise zwischen den Phasenleiter und den PE-Leiter eines geschützten Systems, anzuschließen. Durch diese Ausbildung wird die Aufgabe vollständig gelöst, da der Einfach-Funkenstrecke ein Element in Form des Bauteiles in Reihe geschaltet ist, das vor dem Stromfluss sehr niederohmig ist und während des Stromflusses eine hohe Gegenspannung bzw. Dämpfung entwickelt, um der Einfach-Funkenstrecke das Löschen des Folgestroms zu ermöglichen.In order to ensure the cohesion of the component, formed from the electrodes and the conductive granules, the corresponding temperature-resistant Isolierstoffhülle is provided. In the simplest form, such a component is to be connected in series with a spark gap having a correspondingly low response level, for example between the phase conductors and the PE conductors of a protected system. Due to this design, the problem is completely solved because the single-spark gap is an element in the form of the component connected in series, which is very low impedance before the current flow and during the current flow high counter-tension or damping developed to the single-spark gap the Allow deletion of the follow-on stream.
Eine lose Schüttung ist erforderlich, um einen Abstand zwischen den Granulatkörpern sicherzustellen, der die Ausbildung von kleinen Lichtbögen zwischen den Granulatkörnern ermöglicht. Die Schüttung muss aber innerhalb des Raumes, der von der Isolierstoffhülle umgeben ist, ausreichend sein, um bei unterschiedlichen Lagen des Elementes eine Kontaktierung des Granulates mit den Elektroden sicherzustellen.A loose bed is required to ensure a distance between the granules which allows the formation of small arcs between the granules. However, the bed must be sufficient within the space that is surrounded by the Isolierstoffhülle to ensure contact of the granules with the electrodes at different positions of the element.
Infolge des Einsatzes von Granulat in Form von Grafitkörner oder -kugeln wird erreicht, dass keine Verschmelzungen durch hohe Ströme und/oder Erwärmung auftreten kann.As a result of the use of granules in the form of graphite grains or spheres is achieved that no mergers can occur due to high currents and / or heating.

Zudem ist bevorzugt vorgesehen, dass das Granulat eine Körnung von 0,4 - 1,6 mm aufweist.In addition, it is preferably provided that the granules have a grain size of 0.4 to 1.6 mm.
Des Weiteren ist bevorzugt vorgesehen, dass die Isolierstoffhülle aus Keramik oder Glas besteht.Furthermore, it is preferably provided that the Isolierstoffhülle consists of ceramic or glass.
Bezüglich der Bemessung der Körnung ist wesentlich, dass eine untere Grenze dadurch gegeben ist, dass dann, wenn die Körnung sehr fein ist, sehr wenig Luft zwischen den Partikeln verbleibt, so dass der gewünschte Effekt möglicherweise nicht oder nur in unzureichendem Maße erreicht wird. Eine obere Grenze ist dadurch gegeben, dass eine möglichst große Anzahl von Granulatkörnern in dem entsprechenden Raum angeordnet sein soll.With regard to the design of the grain, it is essential that a lower limit is given by that, when the grain is very fine, very little air remains between the particles, so that the desired effect may not be achieved or only insufficiently achieved. An upper limit is given by the fact that the largest possible number of granules should be arranged in the corresponding space.
Weitere Parameter zur Einstellung der Löschwirkung sind der Durchmesser bzw. der Querschnitt der Isolierstoffhülle, die Länge der Isolierstoffhülle samt Granulatfüllung. Je nach Größe, also Dicke und/oder Länge der Isolierstoffhülle samt Granulat, wird durch dieses Bauteil eine kleinere oder größere Gegenspannung aufgebaut.Other parameters for setting the extinguishing effect are the diameter or cross section of the insulating material, the length of the insulating material, including granulate filling. Depending on the size, ie thickness and / or length of Isolierstoffhülle together with granules is through This component constructed a smaller or larger counter tension.
Es ist auch denkbar, den Überspannungsableiter mit mehreren in Reihe geschalteten Funkenstrecken auszubilden und diese mit einem elektrischen Element angegebener Bauart in Reihenschaltung zu komplettieren.It is also conceivable to form the surge arrester with a plurality of spark gaps connected in series and to complete these series-connected with an electrical element specified type.
Vorzugsweise ist zudem vorgesehen, dass die Elektroden aus Graphit bestehen.Preferably, it is also provided that the electrodes consist of graphite.
Um eine besonders kompakte Bauform der gesamten Funktionseinheit zu realisieren, kann vorgesehen sein, dass die eine Elektrode des Bauteiles eine Elektrode der Funkenstrecke bildet.In order to realize a particularly compact design of the entire functional unit, it can be provided that the one electrode of the component forms an electrode of the spark gap.

Zudem ist bevorzugt vorgesehen, dass die Elektroden des Bauteiles und der Funkenstrecke zylindrisch sind und die Isolierstoffhülle ein Rohr ist, welches an die Elektroden des Bauteils angeschlossen ist.In addition, it is preferably provided that the electrodes of the component and the spark gap are cylindrical and the insulating material is a tube which is connected to the electrodes of the component.
Der ringförmige Isolator zwischen den Elektroden der Funkenstrecke besteht aus wärmebeständigem Material, insbesondere PTFE oder auch Keramik.The annular insulator between the electrodes of the spark gap is made of heat-resistant material, in particular PTFE or ceramic.
Die besonders einfache Bauform des erfindungsgemäßen Überspannungsableiters ist in der Zeichnung verdeutlicht.The particularly simple design of the surge arrester according to the invention is illustrated in the drawing.

Das Granulat besteht aus kugeligen oder körnigen Teilchen, vorzugsweise Graphitkörnern oder Graphitkugeln, wobei eine Körnung in der Größenordnung von 0,4 - 1,6 mm bevorzugt ist. Die Isolierstoffhülle 6 besteht aus Keramik oder Glas, während die Elektroden 3,4 aus Graphit bestehen. Im Ausführungsbeispiel bildet die eine Elektrode 3 des Bauteiles 2 eine Elektrode der Funkenstrecke, deren anderer Elektrode bei 9 angegeben ist. Zwischen der Elektrode 3, die sowohl eine Elektrode des Bauteiles 2 bildet, als auch eine Elektrode der Funkenstrecke 1, und der Elektrode 9 ist ein vorzugsweise ringförmiger Isolator 10, beispielsweise aus PTFE angeordnet. Durch den Abstand zwischen den Elektroden 9 und 3 kann das Zündverhalten der Funkenstrecke 1 auf das gewünschte Maß eingestellt werden.
