Highlights
  • Fluorinated nitrile designed to be a lower GWP and sustainable alternative to sulfur hexafluoride (SF₆) enabling significant and meaningful reduction of the environmental impact
  • Reducing the GHG impact in on-grid commercial equipment more than 99%
  • Non-flammable
  • High dielectric strength
  • Wide safety margin for workers when used as designed for intended applications

3M™ Novec™ 4710 Insulating Gas is a sustainable alternative to sulfur hexafluoride (SF₆) for electrical equipment insulation and arc quenching applications. It offers excellent dielectric properties, a wide range of operating temperatures and significant and meaningful reductions in environmental impacts compared to SF₆.

Novec 4710 gas in pure form has a relative dielectric strength two times greater than SF6 at a given pressure. This SF6 alternative also has important environmental properties such as low global warming potential (GWP) when mixed with inert gases and zero ozone depletion potential (ODP). Novec 4710 gas is nonflammable and has a wide safety margin for workers when used as designed for intended applications.
Suggested applications
  • Insulating Gas for electrical equipment
