Description
Galvanized Steel Lightning Rod Elevating Mast – Third Element:
The third lightning rod lifting mast element is made of galvanized steel. It has a length of 2.00 meters and an outside diameter of 50 mm. This mast is specially designed to fit the second element mast for the elevation of the ESE Ellips® and Paraton@ir® Early Streamer Emission (ESE) Lightning Rods.
Facility:
Its installation is easy and safe for raising a lightning rod to approximately 5.7 meters (for example: lightning rod on a hospital, factory, building, etc.). We also offer a stainless steel version, ideal for environments prone to corrosion.
Lightning Rod Elevation – Increased Protection Radius:
Thus, a third mast section is added to reach a height of 5.7 meters. Longitudinal clamping screws are used to secure the second and third mast sections. Consequently, the modularity of this assembly offers precise adaptability to meet the needs of achieving a greater height Protection Radius with a Protection Level constant.
Choose a system of mast fixings tailored to your project.
Stable and robust, our lightning rod elevation mast generally does not require a guying kit when used with our lightning rods.
Benefits:
Thus, the lightning rod elevation mast plays several key roles in lightning protection. It expands the protection zone by raising the lightning rod above the buildings. Consequently, the radius of lightning protection coverage is effectively increased.
This optimized positioning allows for more strategic interception of electrical discharges, thus providing better protection. The lightning rod captures and channels the direct impacts of lightning and its energy away from vulnerable areas, thereby protecting the underlying structure.
Namely:
In addition to its functionality, the design of the lightning rod's lifting mast has been carefully considered. Indeed, its aesthetics are designed to harmonize with the surrounding architecture, combining protection and style. (House, Historic Building, Hospital, Apartment Building, Factory…)
Thanks to its composition, this mast is a "natural conductor". (IEC 62305 and NFC 17-102:2011 standards).
Finally, for even greater integration, the mast can be painted. This allows for customization according to the preferences or architectural requirements of the project.
