7m reinforced mast for high-level downspouts 62057009

Protection against atmospheric discharges – support mast for horizontal conductors

This 7-meter reinforced mast for horizontal conductors is a key element of the lightning protection system. It is used to protect metal roof elements and external devices, such as skylights, air conditioners or ventilation units, from the effects of lightning strikes. Its solid aluminum construction ensures reliable protection and long-lasting operation.

The mast serves as a support for the Aldrey rope, which is stretched between successive lightning protection masts. It enables the passage mounting of two Aldrey ropes, which increases the efficiency of the entire system. It is important to maintain an appropriate insulation distance between the masts and the protected devices – the distance between the masts connected by the Aldrey rope should not exceed 8 meters. The reinforced construction of the mast ensures its stability even in strong winds.

Construction and assembly

The mast is made of durable aluminum, which guarantees its lightness and corrosion resistance. It is intended for use with appropriate mounting brackets (e.g. 66000105), which are selected depending on the type of mounting surface. The assembly includes connecting the mast to the Aldrey rope using special connectors and securing the connections with M8 clamping screws. A 13mm and 17mm flat wrench and mounting adhesive will be required for correct assembly.

The use of a reinforced construction translates into greater resistance to wind loads, which is particularly important in areas exposed to strong gusts. Wind resistance depends on the configuration of the mast grid – detailed information on resistance can be found in the product's technical documentation. The mast has a wire diameter range of 16 to 40 mm, which ensures compatibility with various lightning protection systems. The raw surface condition requires additional anti-corrosion protection before installation if the operating conditions require it.
