Energy & High Voltage.

Potting compounds, electrical casting resins, adhesives and sealants, and specialty lubricants for energy technology and high-voltage components. Components in transformers, switchgear, and sensors often remain in operation for decades, are subjected to electrical stress, and are difficult to access. SILITECH provides support with material selection, technical data sheets, and alternatives, with delivery from our Gümligen warehouse.

Areas of application

Application areas

Potting & Insulation

Potting compounds for transformers, coils, and chokes. A potting compound must retain its elasticity, dielectric strength, and heat dissipation throughout the service life of a high-voltage component. We supply epoxy resins, silicone potting compounds, and polyurethane systems for applications ranging from low-voltage transformers to high-voltage components, offering increased thermal conductivity or reduced fire load depending on the requirements; the technical data sheets are authoritative.

To the product range

Switchgear

Adhesives and sealants for enclosures, partitions, and connections. Switchgear enclosures must remain sealed and mechanically stable for decades, often under vibration, humidity, and temperature fluctuations. We supply structural adhesives, MS polymers, and silicone sealants for permanently elastic and high-strength bonds; we assess suitability based on the technical data sheets and recommend testing on the original substrate.

Sensors under high voltage

Potting systems for measurement and sensor electronics in electrically stressed environments. Sensors in high-voltage environments require potting compounds that provide electrical insulation, mechanical protection, and heat dissipation. Our product range includes silicone and epoxy potting compounds for sensors and measurement electronics, from control cabinet electronics to on-site measurement technology; dielectric properties according to manufacturer documentation.

Mechanics & Lubrication

Special lubricants for switching and drive mechanisms with long maintenance intervals. Mechanisms in energy technology are often not moved for years and yet must function immediately in an emergency. We supply special lubricants based on silicone, PFPE, and mineral oil for applications with long service lives, high continuous loads, or extreme temperatures. Operating limits and suitability are detailed in the technical data sheet.
