High voltage solutions

Challenge

Invisible Risk. Costly Consequences.

SF₆ is used in high-voltage switchgear because of its excellent insulating properties—but it is a highly potent greenhouse gas. Leaks often go unnoticed until they lead to outages, high repair costs, and regulatory consequences. Experience shows that approximately 75% of all outages could be prevented through early fault detection.

Our approach

A unique end-to-end portfolio in the SF6 sector.

WIKA is the only provider that covers the entire SF6 life cycle from a single source—from sensors to gas handling to IIoT monitoring. Complemented by Dynamic Line Rating (DLR) with Astrose for maximum grid utilization.
