Valve gas filter and gas-insulated switchgear
A valve gas filter includes: a valve box attached to a gas enclosing port connected to a gas-insulated device to be filled with an insulating gas and hermetically sealed; and a valve body that opens and closes a gas passage by moving in the valve box, in which the valve body includes a gas filter, which is formed by a porous insulating material and allows passage of an insulating gas but does not allow passage of foreign matter contained in the insulating gas.
1. A valve gas filter comprising:
a valve box attached to a gas enclosing port connected to a gas-insulated device, wherein the gas-insulated device is to be filled with an insulating gas and hermetically sealed; and
a valve body configured using a tubular member whose upper surface and bottom surface are opened, the tubular member being arranged such that an axial direction is parallel to a gas passage of the insulating gas, the valve body opening and closing the gas passage by the tubular member moving in a direction perpendicular to the gas passage in the valve box, wherein
the valve body includes, in the tubular member, a filter that is formed by a porous insulating material and that allows passage of the insulating gas but does not allow passage of foreign matter contained in the insulating gas.
2. The valve gas filter according to claim 1 , wherein
the filter is fixed to an inner surface of the tubular member by a snap ring.
3. The valve gas filter according to claim 1 , wherein
the valve box further includes a first connecting part connectable to a gas hose through which the insulating gas passes, and a second connecting part connectable to a main body valve connected to the gas-insulated device.
4. The valve gas filter according to claim 1 , wherein
the valve box is integrally formed with a main body valve connected to the gas-insulated device.
5. A gas-insulated switchgear comprising:
a gas-insulated device to be filled with an insulating gas and hermetically sealed;
a valve box attached to a gas enclosing port connected to the gas-insulated device; and
a valve body configured using a tubular member whose upper surface and bottom surface are opened, the tubular member being arranged such that an axial direction is parallel to a gas passage of the insulating gas, the valve body opening and closing the gas passage by the tubular member moving in a direction perpendicular to the gas passage in the valve box, wherein
the valve body includes, in the tubular member, a filter that is formed by a porous insulating material and that allows passage of the insulating gas but does not allow passage of foreign matter contained in the insulating gas.
6. The valve gas filter according to claim 2 , wherein
the valve box further includes a first connecting part connectable to a gas hose through which the insulating gas passes, and a second connecting part connectable to a main body valve connected to the gas-insulated device.
7. The valve gas filter according to claim 2 , wherein
the valve box is integrally formed with a main body valve connected to the gas-insulated device.
