Sulfur Hexafluoride-SF6
Proper Shipping Name: Sulfur HexafluorideOur SF6 adheres to the highest standards for purity and quality, with the lowest moisture content in the industry. SF6 is commonly used by utilities, as well as in commercial applications.
Sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) is a colorless in-noxious and non-flammable gas at atmospheric temperature.. It is chemical stable with good insulation.
Concorde also offers SF6 gas for industrial uses. Concorde filters its Sulfur Hexafluoride with a unique purification system using our proprietary chemical and SF6 Gas - Concorde Gas manufacturing processes, tailored creates a superior grade SF6 that exceeds the industry standards for SF6.

Sulfur hexafluoride is used in a range of industries for a range of applications including:
For it excellent insulation, SF6 is widely used in electrical industries, such as circuit breaker, high-voltage transmission line, CIS, large cable coil, mutual inductor, lightning arrester, etc
Dielectric medium:
SF6 is used in the electrical industry as a gaseous dielectric medium for high-voltage circuit breakers, switchgear, and other electrical equipment, often replacing oil filled circuit breakers (OCBs) that can contain harmful PCBs.
Medical use:
SF6 is used to provide a tamponade or plug of a retinal hole in retinal detachment repair operations in the form of a gas bubble.
Tracer compound.
as an etchant, as inert gas to fill casting forms, as a filler gas in tennis balls and so on.
