Earth-Rite® Plus Static Grounding System
The Earth-Rite® Plus provides positive verification of a static ground connection on a wide range of industrial plant equipment including
railcars, drums, containers, tanker trucks and other conductive equipment. Whenever flammable liquids or powders are transferred,
or wherever there is a risk of conductive plant items becoming isolated from earth within hazardous locations, effective grounding and
bonding is necessary to ensure safe dissipation of static electricity to prevent fires and explosions which can be ignited by static. When
connected to a drum or other conductive equipment, the intrinsically safe monitoring circuit verifies a low resistance connection and
dissipation path to ground. Good connection is confirmed by pulsing LED indicators, releasing a pair of voltage free output contacts and
enabling the transfer of product to start.
