Abstract
Abstract Relay To increase the dielectric strength of a gas-filled enclosed relay as compared to that attainable with a relay of the same size whose interior is filled with dry air or an inert gas, the interior of the relay is filled under normal pressure with a filler gas which contains at least one electronegative gas.
The enclosure is made of plastic. The plastic en-capsulation is sealed and is matched with the filler gas in such a way as to sufficiently prevent the electronegative gas from diffusing away. As a re-sult, the dielectric strength will not fall below a specified value throughout the life of the relay.

2~98145 enclosures are compensated for or hermetica(~y sealed, practically leakage-free meta~-glass enclosures are employed.
In the case of a plastic-encapsuLated relay, howeYer, which is to be producibLe at low cost, is to haYe a small Yolume, and is to be mounted on printed-c;rcu;t boards, for examp~e, this category of enclosure is not realizable; leakage compensat;on ;s just as unsu;tabLe.
For low-cost relays for printed-circuit boards, only a tight plast;c enclosure can be provided.
Plastic-encapsulated relays for pr;nted-circuit boards are known, ;ncluding gas-f;lled relays, in which an ;nert gas is generally used to enhance contact re-liability. The inert gas is introduced through specific openings which are closable after the fiLling operation.
One example is the washable relay disc~osed in DE-A-3323922. This does not result in a signif;cant ;n-crease in d;electric strength, however.
On the one hand, more stringent-safety requirements placed on relays necessitate a higher dielectric strength, and on the other hand, smaller relay si~es are desired because of the higher component density in printed circuits. A worthwh;le goal for improuing performance capability is therefore to increase the dielectric strength ~;th unchanged dimensions or to maintain the dielectric strength despite significantly smal~er dimensions.
Lt is, therefore, the object of the present in~ention to :
i provide a relay which can be made at low cost and has a higher dielectric strength than can. be achieYed with a relay of identical construction whose interior is filled wi.th dry air or an inert gas. The relay i.s to be suitable for appli.cations as are contained in con-tact application categories 0, 1, 2 and 3 of ~EC
Standard 255-7,and as can be found mainly in telecommuni-cations.
Thi.s object i.s attained by the combi.nation of features :
according to c~aim 1.
Under atmospheric or slight-y increased pressure, the electronegati~e gas is able to increase the di.electric strength as compared with dry-air or inert-gas fillings to a sufficient extent. For f;llings under normal pressure, plastic enclosures and sealedplastic encap-sulations are sufficient to limit leakaqe losses. The matchinq of the types of plastics and aas used and of their sealing prevents any nonpermissible diffusion loss of the electronegative gas. A specified dielectric strength is thus maintained throughout the life of the relay. Compared with known relays, smaller relays with equally high dielectric strength or re~ays of the same size with higher dielectric strength can be manufactured.
Further advantageous features of the relay according to the invention are defined in the dependent claims.
Peculiarities of the invention will no~ be exp~ained in some more detail.
The advantages of electronegati.ve gases with respect to the dielectr;c strength of contacts are apparent , ,-:

- ` 2098145 in enclosed high-~oltage switch gear. HoweYer, the soph;sticated technology available there cannot readily be applied to other appl;cations, where iifferent bound-ary conditions frequently exist. Miniature relays for use on printed-circuit boards, for example, must be mass-producible and suitable for use at temperatures down to far below 0C. Viewed from this standpoint, a hermeticaLly sealed enclosure is prohibitively expensive.
Furthermore, high pressure as is usual in SF6-insulated switch gear results in nonpermissible condensation of the gas already at moderate temperatures.
This is where the invention sets in, aimina to increase the dielectric strength by adequate means, taking into account the boundary conditions. The advan-taqes of electrone~ative qases are utilized, but not to the full extent, i.e., not by use under greatly increased pressure, but under atmospheric pressure.
This provides only a partial increase of the dielectric strength, which, however, is sufficient for the resDective application provided that the qas can be effective through-out the intended life of the relay. Since normal pressure is used, a hermetically sealed encaDsulation can be disDensed with. An encLosure made of low-cost plastics uithout connection to the outside air is sufficient. According to the invention, it is also possible, of course, to use a slightly increased pressure of the gas filling up to approximately 1.5 bar. The permissible pressure is only determined by the fact that no special steps have to be taken for the encapsulation to be able to maintain the partial pressure of the electronegative gas throughout the life of the relay.

The known technique involuing the use of ;.nert gas serves mainly to ensure an uncontaminated starting atmosphere. Inert gas, such as n;trogen or argon, then d;ffuses through the plast;c at a similar rate as ~ater vapor or oxygen. For the outside a;r di.ffusing ;.nto the interior of the enclosure by way of compensa-tion, the plastic acts as a microf;lter, so that no contamination w;ll occur.
With the increase of the dielectric strength through the electronegati.ve gas ;n accordance w;.th the inven-tion, things are different. Electronegative gases, de-pendi.ng on the type, have a relative breakdown strength wh;.ch is up to five t;mes higher than that of air. Al-ready a gas w;th a relat;ve breakdown strength of 2.5 provides a sufficient increase of the dielectric strength in the sense of the invention. The electro-negat;ve gas must be preserved ;n the ;nter;or of the enclosure in a suff;c;ent concentration. To this end, plastics w;ll be selected whose structure nearly com-pletely holds back the molecules of the electronegative gas. As a rule, the molecules of the electroneeative gas are larger than those of air and of inert gases, which extends the range of suitable Plastics~ Due to the diffusion properties of all gases with respect to the plastics used, the composition of the gas filling changes after the manufacture of the relay, but the concentration of electronegative gas remains high enough to ensure a specified dielectric strength.
The use of a gas filling under normal pressure not only reduces the requirements placed on the enclosure but t '.

also extends the range of enclosure materials to choose from. As is well known, during the l;fe of qas-filled relays, changes in the filling result not only from ~eakages, but also from diffus;on losses through the enclosure. The relatively expensive and difficult-to-hand~e metal enclosures are very well suited to over-coming this problem. Plast;c encapsulations are much lower in cost. Without suitable matchina of the ~lastic and the electronegative gas, however, the Latter will diffuse away too rapidly, so that during the life of the relay, the dielectric strength will drop below the specified value. The plastics used for the encap-sulation must therefore be optimized with regard to the diffusion properties of the filler gas.
A proven, well investigated and, therefore, preferred electronegative gas is sulfur hexafluoride,SF6. It can be used in the form of technically pure SF6 as the sole filler gas. A mixture of gases can provide improvements, e.g., with respect to the therma~ characteristic. Pre-ferabLy, one of the gases of such a mixture is again SF6- . -The proposed measures in combination thus allo~ a re-lay with improved properties regarding die~ectric strength to be manufactured at low cost in a similar manner as heretofor. Thus, compared with the dieLectric strength attainable with a relay whose interior is fil~ed with dry air or an inert gas, either a higher die~ectric strength can be achieved with unchanged relay dimensions or smaller relay dimensions can be realized with unchanged dielectric strength.
