The role of the lightning conductors is to capture lightning to flow it into the ground by down conductors.Simple rod, with sharp, steel points, derived from earlier designs.
They provide protection for small structures.While Early Streamer Emission (ESE), a development of simple rod, but in which the efficiency is enhanced by using a device generated High voltage pulses to create a corona/effect. This reduces meeting time between the upward and the downward leaders and makes designs suitable for much larger structures.
Features:
1. Superior performance:
2. Offer a wider protection range than ordinary simple rod under the same conditions(altitude)
3. More accurate lightning, reducing the probability of lightning hitting non- lightning rod body
4. Lower flash voltage than simple rod
5. Safe and reliable: no radioactive elements, stainless steel, corrosion resistance, wind resistance
6. Maintenance-free: Passive, no power, no energy-consuming element
Simple installation: light weight, without the need of install shielded coaxial cable
7. Attractive appearance
Application:
Large public facilities (universities, hospitals, sports arenas, gas stations, highways, government offices, office buildings),
buildings (high-rise residential, villas, farms, grain), military installations (radar stations, barracks, missile sites, military
camps warehouse ), historic buildings, industrial facilities (factories and mines, dangerous goods warehouse, substation),
telecommunication (communication base stations, radio tower, microwave stations)
