Main Parts

Forend Tester LC

The Forend Active Heads can be checked by the FOREND Tester every time. The Tester will indicate OK or FAULT with the help of red or green LED . Its connection cable can be long up to 100 meters.

Forend Lightning Discharge Counter ( FOREND -LSC)

Applications and Descriptions:

  • Enclosure Rating /IP 67
  • Nonresetable
  • Currents detected from 2 to 200 kA .
  • Mechanical Counter with 3 digits.
  • Easy mountable.
  • Does not require any external power supply.
    Serial Counter
  • Dimensions: 11,3x7x4,8 cm

The Lightning Strikes are detected and monitored by FOREND-LSC, which is able to give some information about the service necessity of the Lightning System. By using an inductive record, the counter is able accurately to count all lightning events for a later reference.

 

Operating Principle:

FOREND-LSC works with an inductive effect of the lightning strike current. The events are monitored by a mechanical counter display. The counter includes a high frequency transformer.

Radius of Protection

The radius of protection of Forend Early Streamer Emission(E.S.E) lightning conductor is related to its height (h) relative to the area to be protected, to its; triggering advance and to the selected protection level.

Rp = √ h(2D – h) + ∆L (2D + ∆L) with h ≥ 5m.

Rp = radius of protection

h = tip of Forend ESE

D = triggering distance
      20m for protection level I,
      30m for protection level II,
      45m for protection level III,
      60m for protection level IV.

∆L = upward leader length gain

∆L₍m₎ = V₍m/µs₎ • ∆T₍µs₎ (V = 1m/µs)

∆T = triggering advance
