For bridging buried insulating joints in cathodically protected pipe sections of pipelines
For protecting insulating joints in potentially explosive atmospheres
Voltage drop across the coaxial cable is up to three times lower than across a conventional connection cable. Depending on the insulation strength of the insulating joint, the length of the connection cable can be up to 5 m
The integrated EXFS 100 spark gap is thus inspected and replaced outside the Ex area / above ground (no excavation work needed)
Version for lightning equipotential bonding according to IEC 62305 in hazardous areas
Spark gap is easily accessible since cables do not have to be disconnected and insulations do not have to be removed during inspection
Delivery does not include fixing accessory
