The Earth-Rite® II DGS Dual Grounding System (DGS) has two independent ground monitoring circuits that allows operators to ground and continuously monitor two items of metal conductive plant equipment concurrently to less than 10 Ohms, such as two bulk transportation vehicles or other metallic vessels like Ex IBCs and metal drums. This feature is commonly used to ground trucks and tank cars during transloading operations or to ground up to two trucks or tank cars that are being loaded/unloaded at dedicated loading rack installations. Interlocking the grounding system with the process equipment being used enhances the safety and operating procedure before the process starts. If the ground is lost then Earth-Rite® II DGS can shut down the process for one or both of the channels.

Note: This package includes Newson Gale's Earth-Rite® II DGS Static Grounding System with Two (2) 32 ft. Spiral Cables and Two (2) Heavy Duty X90 SS Static Grounding and Monitoring Clamps.

Features

  • Three attention grabbing red/green LEDs confirms resistance to earth is 10 Ohms (or less) - Complies with NFPA 77
  • Monitors the resistance of the ground loop from the grounded object through to the site’s verified true earth grounding point
  • Two dry output contacts which can be interlocked to electromechanical devices or PLC systems, to stop the flow of product should the system detect a risk of static charge accumulation
  • Two VESX90-IP 2-pole heavy duty stainless steel static grounding and monitoring clamps with tungsten carbide pointed contacts to ease good metal to metal contact and spiral cable in-line-quick-connect feature
  • Two 32 ft. (10 m.) Cen-Stat blue hytrel sheathed spiral cables with junction boxes and clamp quick connect fittings attached
  • Two intrinsically safe wiring GRP junction boxes with quick connection and clamp stowage pin
  • Supplied with 1 pair of handles for opening and closing of the enclosure lid
  • Two year warranty
