To minimise static ignitions
October 1st 2009 Newson Gale has released the next
generation of its ATEX and IECEx
certified Earth-Rite hazardous area
static grounding systems.
The new systems feature a
cluster of bright pulsing
green LEDs, which
provide attention
grabbing indication to
personnel that a
positive ground
condition is established
for the duration of the
transfer process.
The new electronics, which are
housed in a IIC EX(d) enclosure as
standard, have a certified operating
temperature range of -40 to +55°C,
which means the new systems can be
installed in the harshest operating
environments without any additional
protection or modification.
Designed specifically to
minimise the hazards of
static ignitions during
road tanker truck
loading and
unloading, the
patented Earth-Rite
RTR provides operators
with automatic and
failsafe static ground
verification and tanker truck
recognition checks. |
