[Sneap] alternatives to SF6

[Larry Ahle]

We are retrofitting an existing pelletron that has been moth balled 
for many years.  Unfortunately, the gas storage system developed a 
leak during that time and so we have no SF6.  We are interested in 
any info about possible gas mixtures that are more economical than 
SF6 but have comparable insulating properties.  Thanks.
