Detailed Production Process Flow:

The manufacturing of this arrester involves precision engineering and strict quality control. Below is the step-by-step production workflow:

1. Raw Material Preparation

ZnO Valve Blocks:

High-purity ZnO powder (99.5%+) mixed with additives (Bi₂O₃, Sb₂O₃, Co₂O₃, MnO₂) for non-linear characteristics.  

Powder pressed into discs under 100–150 MPa pressure.  

Sintered at 1,100–1,250°C in controlled-atmosphere furnaces to form dense, homogeneous blocks.  

Polymer Housing:

Silicone Rubber (HTV) or EPDM pellets compounded with:  

Alumina Trihydrate (ATH, 40–60% for arc resistance).  

UV stabilizers, pigments (grey colorant), and hydrophobic agents.  


2. Valve Block Electrical Grading

Each sintered ZnO disc tested for **non-linear coefficient (α) and threshold voltage (V₁mA/mm).  

Discs grouped by electrical properties to ensure uniform voltage distribution.  

Stacked into columns, separated by conductive coatings (Al-Zn spray), and bonded with epoxy.  



3. Housing Molding (6-Shed Design)

Injection Molding Process:

Polymer compound injected into precision molds designed for 6 optimized sheds (enhanced rain washing/pollution resistance).  

Molds engineered to achieve 360mm creepage distance via:  

   - Increased shed spacing and depth.  

   - Extended leakage path along housing profile.  

Curing:

 - Vulcanized at 160–180°C under pressure (20–30 MPa) for 10–15 minutes.  

 - Post-curing at 200°C for 4–6 hours to maximize hydrophobicity.

4. Metal End-Fitting Fabrication

Aluminum/stainless steel terminals machined with:  

 - Threaded bolts for line connection.  

 - Compression grooves for housing sealing.  

Surface passivated (anodized/Zn-plated) for corrosion resistance.

5. Assembly & Sealing

Core-Housing Integration:

 - ZnO column inserted into the polymer housing.  

 - End-fittings crimped/sealed onto both ends via cold-welding or compression molding.  

Hermetic Sealing:

 - Silicone sealant injected at terminals to prevent moisture ingress (IP67 rating).  

 - Critical for long-term stability in humid environments.

6. Electrical Testing & Quality Control

Routine Tests (Per IEC 60099-4):

 - DC Reference Voltage (Vref): Measures V at 1mA DC (verifies non-linearity).  

 - Leakage Current Test:≤50 μA at 0.75 × Vref.  

 - Impulse Current Test: 5kA (8/20 μs) applied 2x – checks energy handling.  

 - Power Frequency Withstand: 30kV/10s (no flashover).  

Special Tests (Sample Basis):

 - Pollution Test:Validates 360mm creepage under salt-fog (IEC 60507).  

 - Accelerated Aging: 1,000 hrs at 115°C to simulate 20-year service.  



7. Final Inspection & Packaging

Visual inspection for defects (cracks, air bubbles).  

Laser marking: Ratings (11kV, 5kA), manufacturer, date.  

Packaged in shock-resistant boxes with desiccant.  


Key Technical Advantages

6-Shed Design: Maximizes pollution performance (suitable for IEC Class IV/Heavy Pollution).  

Extended Creepage (360mm):Prevents flashover in coastal/industrial areas.  

Robust Construction: Sealed polymer housing resists UV, tracking, and thermal cycling (-40°C to +85°C).  

Eco-Friendly: No gas/SF6, maintenance-free.
