Cen-Stat X45 and X90

ATEX / FM approved earthing clamps, cables and reels

The Cen-Stat X45 and X90 are general purpose static earthing clamps and are FM and ATEX certified for guidelines of safe use within hazardous areas.

The earthing clamps are made from corrosion resistant stainless steel (304) and contain two hard wearing tungsten carbide tips that bite through rust, paint and product deposits. It is designed specially for use on large containers, drums and IBCs.

5 good reasons to specify FM & ATEX certified earthing clamp

    1.   Earthing Clamp Pressure Testing
          Ensures the earthing clamp is capable of establishing and maintaining low resistance electrical
          contact with equipment (FM approvals).

    2.   Electrical Continuity Testing
          Ensuring the continuity from the tip throughout the earthing clamp is less than 1 ohm (FM
          approvals).

    3.   High Frequency Vibration Testing
          Ensures the earthing clamp is capable of maintaining positive contact when attached to vibrating
          equipment (FM approvals).

    4.   Mechanical Pull Testing
          Ensures the earthing clamp cannot be pulled off the equipment without an intentional application of
          force (FM approvals).

    5.   Sources of mechanical sparking
          Ensures no mechanical sparking sources are present in the clamp (ATEX certification)


! ATTENTION ! - drums and containers can have typical coating thicknesses of 675 micro-metres.   The flat surfaces of basic welding clamps and battery clips are not designed to penetrate such  coatings. Product deposits on drums and containers have thicknesses of up to several millimetres. It is of critical importance to specify earthing clamps that can make regular and positive electrical contact with the conductive parts of the container. This will ensure that every time a process capable of generating static charges is carried out the risk of an incendive static spark discharge is reduced to an acceptable level.
