Static grounding systems October 1st 2009 Newson Gale has released the next
generation of its ATEX and IECEx
certified Earth-Rite hazardous area
static grounding systems. Designed
to minimise the hazards of static
ignitions during road tanker truck
loading and unloading, the new
systems feature a cluster of bright
pulsing green LEDs, which indicate
that a positive ground condition is
established for the duration of the
transfer process.
Housed in a IIC EX(d)
enclosure, the new electronics have
a certified operating temperature
range of -40 to +55°C, which
means the systems can be installed
in the harshest operating
environments without any
modification. More articles from Newson Gale Ltd: |
