Weight for elevated downpipe supports AH40290

Down conductor weight for elevated down conductors – stability and safety of the lightning protection system

This weight, made of high-quality electrolytically galvanized steel and concrete, is designed to stabilize the down conductors of elevated down conductors in lightning protection systems. Its construction provides effective protection against wind and other external factors, minimizing the risk of mast deflection and maintaining the integrity of the entire system. The product complies with the PN-EN 62305 standard, which guarantees its effectiveness and safety.

Design and application

The weight consists of a solid concrete element, encased in electrolytically galvanized steel to ensure corrosion resistance. An additional rubber mat protects the conductor from mechanical damage at the point of contact with the weight. Designed for use with conductors with a diameter of 5 to 10 mm, it provides versatility and compatibility with various types of installations. Its main task is to provide adequate tension in the down conductor, preventing it from loosening and losing stability. This ensures that the lightning protection system works reliably even in difficult weather conditions.
