Marine Grounding System
DESCRIPTION
Monitored potential equalization during loading and unloading of sea oil tankers and vessels. Very low-ohmic measure line especially for maritime application.
Marine Grounding System
APPLICATIONS
  • Effective potential equalization between ship and shore prevents possible formation of sparks and hot spots
  • Highest safety by interruption of the battery effect (galvanic cell) between ship and shore
  • Automatic shut off of product flow, when grounding is interrupted
  • Explosion protection for worldwide use according to IECEx and the European ATEX directive 2014/34/EU (zone 1) – IECEx approval not yet finalized –
  • As absolutely essential safety component even when insulating flanges are used

FUNCTIONS
  • Various control outputs, e.g. for connection to an additional status indicator to display an unsafe status
  • Marine Grounding Clamp with 2 integrated status LEDs
  • Effective failure diagnosis by integrated system information display (incl. 10 status-LEDs)
  • Object recognition of the ship
  • The electrical conductive bonding line connection between ship and shore is released, after a proper mechanical and electrical contracting is monitored
  • Detection of incorrectly connected clamp or pull off and immediately switching into safe status
