The ground monitoring device ensures the electrostatic grounding of road tankers, rail cars and Big Bag (Rev. C) while loading flammable liquids and powder. The device provides a conductive connection to the ground and monitors in parallel the quality of the electrostatic grounding. This guarantees that the electrostatic charge remains at a safe level and that no explosion hazard is generated by uncontrolled energy discharge. The following recommendation requires grounding during loading and recommends interrupting loading in case of incorrect grounding: - CLC/TR 60079-32-1 recommendation for avoiding ignition hazards due to electrostatic charges. - TRBS 727 rules for avoiding ignition hazards as a result of electrostatic charges.
- Controlled electrostatic grounding of road tankers, rail cars and Big Bag (Rev. C) during loading
- Continuous monitoring of correct grounding
- The object recognition prevents potential operator errors (with road tankers)
- Water jet protected aluminium enclosure IP65
- Up to four potential-free change-over contacts for signalling
- Insulated point of suspension for clamps
- Ambient temperature -55 ... +60 °C
- Bluetooth communication and infrared
