Tridelta offers a wide portfolio of surge arresters for high voltage applications up to 800 kV:
All Tridelta designs feature an excellent sealing system that prevents the ingress of any moisture, ensuring decades of reliable and maintenance-free operation. The wide range of TRIDELTA arresters offers optimal surge protection for various requirements and applications such as:
In addition to the proven SB arresters with porcelain housing, Tridelta Meidensha offers three arrester designs with silicone housing. All three designs use high quality LSR silicone that is water repellent and UV/aging resistant for life and ensures excellent impurity behavior. They also have in common a significantly lower weight compared to porcelain arresters, which makes transport easier, minimizes the risk of damage during transport and installation, and allows various installation options such as use as a line arrester.

Cage Design
Tridelta offers arresters with silicone housing in the cage design of the SBKC series for applications up to 420 kV.
Fiberglass-reinforced epoxy resin rods are fixed in the terminals using a patented process and enclose the metal oxide varistors. This cage-like structure gives the active part high mechanical strength. Direct potting of the “cage” with LSR silicone prevents moisture penetration, thus ensuring high reliability. We use high quality LSR silicone that is water repellent and UV/aging resistant for life and ensures excellent impurity behavior.
Our SBKC arresters in cage design are suitable for increased mechanical requirements and offer an excellent price/performance ratio. They can be used in substations standing or hanging, as well as in overhead lines as line arresters. High processing quality on the latest machines and testing with state-of-the-art measuring technology guarantee a long service life.

Tube Design
Our arresters with silicone housing in the tube design of the SBKT series are available for applications up to 800 kV.
Similar to porcelain arresters, they use a hollow insulator as a housing. The so-called composite insulator consists of a glass-fiber-reinforced plastic tube to which the silicone shields are applied by means of spraying technology. Composite insulators are characterized by very high mechanical strength.
For our SBKT arresters, we use high-quality LSR silicone that is water-repellent and UV/aging resistant for life and ensures excellent impurity behavior. An excellent sealing system prevents moisture penetration, ensuring a long service life.
Due to their very high mechanical strength, SBKT arresters from Tridelta are ideally suited for applications up to 550 kV networks as well as for highly earthquake-prone areas. Since 75% of the mechanical stability of the arrester is retained after an arrester failure, SBKT arresters can also be used for applications with a support function, in which the arrester simultaneously serves as a support in addition to its function as surge protection.

Solid Core Design
Our SBK series solid core design silicone packaged arresters are available for applications up to 170 kV.
As with all of our silicone packaged arresters, we use high quality LSR silicone that is water repellent and UV/aging resistant for life and ensures excellent impurity behavior.
Thanks to their modular design, our SBK arresters in solid core design can be manufactured easily and cost-effectively with variable lengths, creepage distances and impact distances according to customer requirements. Due to their very low dead weight, they are ideally suited for use as line arresters in transmission lines in addition to their application as station arresters.
