Mast for high horizontal downspouts 5M 62045009

Mast for horizontal down conductors – protection against lightning strikes

This mast, made of durable aluminum, is a key element of the lightning protection system. It is used to protect metal roof elements and external equipment – skylights, air conditioners, ventilation units, or ventilation ducts – from the effects of lightning strikes. Its main function is to serve as a support for the Aldrey wire, stretched between lightning protection masts, providing adequate insulation distance from the protected elements. The mast allows for the through-mounting of two Aldrey wires, increasing the flexibility of the installation.

Construction and application

The mast is designed for use in horizontal down conductor systems. The distance between masts connected by the Aldrey wire should not exceed 8 meters. The reinforced construction ensures stability even in strong winds. Aluminum construction guarantees lightness and corrosion resistance, which translates to a long system life. Appropriate brackets are required for mast mounting, selected depending on the type of surface on which it will be installed – e.g., model 66000105.

Why choose this mast?

• Versatility: Suitable for securing various structural elements and external equipment.
• Durability: Made of aluminum, resistant to weathering and mechanical damage.
• Installation flexibility: Allows for through-mounting of two Aldrey wires, adapting to the specifics of the installation.
• Safety: Provides effective protection against the effects of lightning strikes, minimizing the risk of damage and danger to people.
• Simple installation: When combined with appropriate brackets (e.g., 66000105), installation is quick and efficient.

The mast has a raw surface protection and is adapted for connections using a round conductor with a diameter of 16 to 40 mm. It is important to maintain appropriate insulation distances and proper grounding of the lightning protection system to ensure its full functionality and safety.
