Grounding system TERRALIGHT

TERRALIGHT for safe monitoring of containers

Description

Uncontrolled electrostatic discharges when handling highly flammable or explosive media often cause personal injuries and damage to equipment. With smaller containers such as drums, buckets and canisters, the risk of electrostatic sparks is often underestimated. For these simple, but no less dangerous processes, Eltex has developed the TERRALIGHT battery-operated ground monitoring system. The TERRALIGHT grounding system shows the user that a correct dissipative ground connection is present and thus ensures a high level of safety when handling highly flammable media. Mobile ground monitoring, e.g. on mobile suction/pumping stations or containers, is also possible. For a safe ground contact, the contactor/clamp is important as an interface between the grounding device and the object to be grounded. For the TERRALIGHT we offer the TERRACLAMP with built-in grounding indicator. The user can see directly on the clamp if the grounding has been done correctly
