MIDSUN® HVIC: unrivalled protection against electric arcs
The HVIC silicone coating is a special hydrophobic paint that extends the life of your insulators and increases their reliability at a lower cost. Its unique formula allows, once the HVIC paint is applied, to reduce fouling and deposits on your porcelain or glass insulators. Due to its self-cleaning composition, HVIC paint prevents excessive leakage currents, discharge elongation and arcing, minimising the need for periodic maintenance, cleaning or greasing of insulators.
HVIC silicone is resistant to UV radiation, temperature variations, corrosive environments and aluminium hydroxide pitting caused by arcing in dry tape. It offers a long-term solution to breakdown problems. It is particularly used on insulators in dirty areas, such as cement plants, steel mills, seafronts exposed to salt spray, areas subject to sand, dust or organic plant or animal deposits.
Electrical insulation: basis of safety in the electromechanical industry
An electrical insulator, also called a dielectric material, is a part of a component or an organ having the function of preventing the passage of any electric current between two conductive parts. An insulator has few free charges, they are trapped there, unlike a conductive material where the charges are numerous and free to move under the action of an electromagnetic field. It is therefore necessary to protect men, animals and machines from the dangerous effects of electricity in the event of an electric arc.
