Customer Description: An electrical equipment manufacturer relied on
Dow Corning for a partnership solution to help them generate new business opportunities. |
 |
Problem: An electrical equipment manufacturer in North Africa is looking
to
win a major government contract. They need raw materials, innovative production processes, and
testing services. With initial approval for
production, it was essential that they quickly move
ahead at full-power
on reference regarding norms testing and a method to interpret the results. |
Solution: The Manufacturer relied on the Dow Corning network to build equipment and institutional testing partnerships, and to oversee the entire process. The innovative high voltage electrical
insulator solution secured
the government contract - and helped the manufacturer win the business. |

Q: We deal with considerable amounts of contamination in our station post insulators and transformer
bushings. Is High Voltage Silicone Rubber still the
right material for these applications?
A: Contaminants and stress can cause EPDM and EPDM alloys to
lose hydrophobicity. In contrast, insulators made with Dow Corning High Voltage Silicone
Rubber maintain hydrophobicity and
controls leakage currents even when stressed or contaminated, keeping the insulating value high. |
