Many industrial processes are susceptible to discharging electrostatic sparks in Ex / HAZLOC atmospheres. Download the Grounding & Bonding Handbook to learn about the risks associated with road tankers, Ex IBCs, drums and other plant equipment and the measures of control that can create a safer working environment....
Protecting workers and company assets from ignitions caused by static electricity can't be left to chance. In filling operations, the risk of a fire or explosion caused by a discharge of static electricity in an EX/HAZLOC area just can't be ignored. Download this full article from Newson Gale to learn more on how to protect and mitigate the risks of static ignition hazards....
Do you know the importance of controlling static electricity when transporting Hydrogen in tanker trucks, tube trailers, or refueling Hydrogen-powered vehicles? This is due to the low Minimum Ignition Energy (MIE) of Hydrogen being a fraction of other fuels. Download the full technical article and mitigate the hazards in your process....
Dust explosions can occur in any industry handling combustible dusts. In manufacturing and handling process industries in flammable and combustible atmospheres, the threat of static electricity is ever present. Read the full article to understand the dangers and how to mitigate static discharge in powder processing operations....
The 2 pole static grounding clamp ensures positive contact with the metallic item of plant equipment to be grounded. Powerful magnets together with tungsten carbide teeth provide a strong low resistance connection of 10 Ohms or less to any ferrous metal surface. Download the full datasheet here....
Countries around the world have set the strategic objective of reaching net-zero as soon as possible. One of the key enablers is the rapid development of the hydrogen economy. Vast amounts of public and private money are being invested in the production, storage and transportation of hydrogen as well as the fuelling station network for the increasing range of hydrogen vehicles....
