Grounding Systems  Manufacturers, Traders, Suppliers

Electrostatic charges on the surface due to friction of chargeable materials. This charge remains on the material until it either slowly degrades or unloads by arcing to a conductor. The sparks which develop from this discharge can cause an ignition in the event of an explosive atmosphere. To prevent this electrostatic charging, and provide a safe derivation of charges, the use of suitable grounding systems is required such as, for example, grounding clamps on barrels, equipment and pipes. Grounding clamps are to be used especially for mobile objects, because quick installation and dismounting of the grounding clamps is possible.
During unloading a tank truck electrotatic charge can occur. With the grounding monitoring device FARADO®, it is possible to indicate the functioning potential equalization through an extremely bright illuminated LED signal. Furthermore, the switching outputs can be used to actuate certain components, for example, to switch pumps on or off. Dangerous, charge-generating processes can therefore be stopped immediately.
