1. उत्पादन समाप्तview
The Burndy PENETROX A-13 (Model PEN A13-8) is an advanced oxide-inhibiting joint compound designed for use in electrical compression terminals. This product is formulated to facilitate reliable electrical connections between aluminum-to-aluminum and aluminum-to-copper conductors, as well as for aluminum conduit threading. It is also suitable for use with insulated cables.
PENETROX A-13 contains homogeneously suspended zinc particles. These particles enhance conductivity by creating additional conductive surface area and acting as electrical bridges between conductor strands, improving the overall integrity of the connection. The compound effectively penetrates thin oxide films, seals out air and moisture, and prevents further oxidation or corrosion. It exhibits superior weathering characteristics and maintains performance across a wide range of temperatures, ensuring a high-conductivity, "gastight" joint.
This product is recommended for all voltages and is UL Listed and RoHS compliant, ensuring adherence to safety and environmental standards.

3. आवेदन निर्देशनहरू
3.1. तयारी
- Ensure all electrical power to the connection point is disconnected and locked out according to safety procedures.
- Clean the conductor surfaces thoroughly using a wire brush or abrasive pad to remove any existing oxides, dirt, or contaminants.
- Wipe the cleaned surfaces with a clean, lint-free cloth.
३.१. आवेदन प्रक्रिया
PENETROX A-13 is designed for use with compression and bolted connectors to improve service life for aluminum connections.
- Apply a generous amount of PENETROX A-13 directly onto the cleaned conductor surfaces and inside the connector barrel.
- Ensure complete coverage of all contact surfaces to maximize the oxide-inhibiting effect and electrical conductivity.
- कनेक्टरमा कन्डक्टर घुसाउनुहोस्।
- Proceed with the compression or bolting process according to the connector manufacturer's instructions. The compound will aid in gripping the conductor and enhance the integrity of the connection.
- Wipe away any excess compound from the exterior of the connection after assembly.
नोट: PENETROX A-13 is compatible with insulating materials such as rubber or polyethylene, making it suitable for a wide range of applications.
4. भण्डारण र मर्मतसम्भार
Proper storage ensures the longevity and effectiveness of PENETROX A-13.
- Store the product in its original container with the cap tightly sealed.
- Keep in a cool, dry environment, away from extreme temperatures and direct sunlight.
- Avoid contamination of the product with other substances.
Once applied, the compound forms a durable, gastight seal, requiring no further maintenance for the connection itself under normal operating conditions.
T. समस्या निवारण
PENETROX A-13 is a straightforward application product. Most issues arise from improper surface preparation or application.
| समस्या | सम्भावित कारण | समाधान |
|---|---|---|
| Poor connection conductivity after application | Inadequate surface cleaning; insufficient compound application; improper connector compression/bolting. | Ensure surfaces are thoroughly cleaned before application. Apply a generous amount of compound to all contact areas. Verify connector is properly installed according to manufacturer specifications. |
| Compound appears dry or separated | Improper storage (e.g., extreme temperatures, prolonged exposure to air). | Ensure product is stored in a cool, dry place with the cap tightly sealed. If the product's consistency has significantly changed, it may need to be replaced. |
