Cable duct 4 x 400mm OC 92800201

Down conductor tube – a key element of lightning protection installation

The down conductor tube, made of steel and protected with galvanized coating, is an essential component in lightning protection systems. It is used to securely fasten lightning protection elements, such as grounding conductors or masts, providing them with appropriate tension and strength. This product is particularly important where reliability and corrosion resistance are required – which is in virtually every outdoor installation.

Construction and application

The tube with a diameter of 28.2 mm (although the product description mentions 4 x 400mm OC, this probably refers to dimensions related to mounting or another element of the system) is made of steel, which guarantees its mechanical strength. Galvanic/electrolytic zinc coating protects it against the effects of atmospheric factors such as humidity, rain or snow. Thanks to this, the tube retains its properties for a long time, minimizing maintenance and replacement costs.

It finds application in:

• Lightning protection installations on residential and industrial buildings – as a tensioning element for grounding conductors.
• Free-standing structures – for stabilizing antenna masts and other elements exposed to wind and atmospheric discharges.
• Protection systems for public utility facilities – ensuring the safety of people and property.

Advantages for the installer and end user

• Strength: Steel construction provides resistance to mechanical damage and loads.
• Corrosion resistance: Galvanizing protects against the effects of weather conditions, extending the product's life.
• Stability: Provides stable tension of lightning conductors, which is crucial for the proper functioning of the system.
• Versatility: Can be used in various types of lightning protection installations.
• Simple installation: Enables quick and easy installation of lightning protection elements.
• Safety: Increases the safety of the facility by providing reliable surge protection.

The down conductor tube from ELKO-BIS is a high-quality product that will meet the expectations of even the most demanding customers. It is an investment in the safety and durability of the lightning protection system.
