LXY series U100BL Glass Insulator

Product Description：

The LXY Series U100BL Glass Insulator is a toughened glass suspension unit designed for high-voltage transmission and distribution lines. With outstanding mechanical strength, excellent dielectric performance, and superior aging resistance, it ensures stable insulation and reliable support for conductors. Its non-aging glass surface provides long-term clarity, strong impact resistance, and automatic shattering safety, making it ideal for harsh environments.

Product Advantages：

• 100kN mechanical tensile strength for stable load support

• Non-aging glass material maintains long-term insulation performance

• High impact resistance with visible fracture indication

• Strong resistance to pollution, humidity, and temperature changes

• Excellent dielectric strength and arc resistance

• Full compliance with IEC, ANSI, and utility standards

Application Scenarios：

1. High Voltage Transmission Lines:Installed as suspension units on towers to support conductors and maintain insulation clearance.

2. Substation Busbar & Equipment Insulation:Used to isolate live components from grounded structures in busbar systems.

3. Coastal & Industrial Pollution Zones:Glass surface resists pollution accumulation; suitable for areas with salt fog or chemical exposure.

4. Long-Span River Crossings:Installed in long strings to handle higher mechanical loads and ensure insulation reliability.

5. Mountainous or Extreme Weather Regions:Glass withstands rapid temperature changes and strong winds without deterioration.

Quality Assurance：

Each insulator undergoes mechanical tensile tests, electrical withstand voltage tests, thermal cycle tests, and self-explosion rate checks to guarantee long-term reliability.

Features
