Electrical insulators of glass
CPC v2.1 Code: 37197
About electrical insulators of glass
cpc code 37197 covers the production of electrical insulators made from glass. These insulators play a crucial role in the electrical and electronics industries, ensuring the safe and efficient transmission of power by preventing the flow of electricity between conductors. As a key component in a wide range of electrical equipment, from power lines to household appliances, the demand for high-quality glass insulators remains steady across various sectors of the economy.
Production process
The production of electrical insulators of glass typically involves several key steps. First, the raw materials, such as silica sand, soda ash, and other mineral additives, are carefully measured and mixed to create the desired glass composition. This mixture is then melted in a high-temperature furnace, and the molten glass is formed into the desired insulator shape using specialized molds or extrusion processes. The insulators are then slowly cooled to anneal the glass, ensuring its strength and durability. Finally, the insulators may undergo additional finishing processes, such as surface treatment or the application of protective coatings, to enhance their performance and appearance.
Production inputs
The main inputs required for the production of electrical insulators of glass include high-purity silica sand, soda ash, and other mineral additives such as alumina, calcium oxide, and magnesium oxide. These raw materials are essential for creating the desired glass composition with the necessary electrical, mechanical, and thermal properties. Additionally, the production process requires specialized equipment, such as glass-melting furnaces, molds, and annealing ovens, as well as skilled labor to operate the machinery and ensure quality control.
Production outputs
The primary output of cpc code 37197 is electrical insulators made from glass. These insulators are used in a wide range of electrical and electronic applications, including power transmission and distribution 35111 Electric power transmission, telecommunications 61310 Wired telecommunications activities, and industrial equipment 28000 Manufacture of machinery and equipment n.e.c.. The glass insulators produced under this code may also be used in the manufacture of other electrical components, such as 26110 Electronic components, or incorporated into finished products like 27120 Manufacture of electricity distribution and control apparatus.
