What is Schneider Electric AirSeT and why is SF₆‑free switchgear important?
Schneider Electric AirSeT is a next‑generation SF₆‑free switchgear that replaces traditional medium voltage switchgear using SF₆ — an industrial greenhouse gas. AirSeT uses Pure Air insulation and Shunt Vacuum Interruption (SVI) technology to deliver the same proven reliability whilst eliminating high‑GWP gases. This helps customers significantly accelerate carbon reduction and meet sustainability goals without changing how operators work.
How does SF₆‑free AirSeT support smart grids, sustainable energy, and electrification?
AirSeT is designed to enable the transition towards smart‑grid readiness, renewable‑energy integration, and broader electrification. Its digital monitoring and predictive‑maintenance features enhance network visibility and resilience, making it easier for utilities and businesses to adopt sustainable energy technologies whilst future‑proofing their electrical distribution.
What benefits does AirSeT bring to medium voltage installations?
AirSeT complies with IEC 63360 standards and offers a compact, robust design with fuse protection, identical reliability, and zero SF₆ handling. With Pure Air — clean, abundant, and sealed for life — AirSeT allows organisations to transition seamlessly to sustainable MV technology. It's SF₆‑free switchgear powered by Pure Air — because the best gas is no gas.
