Cen-Stat X45 and X90

ATEX / FM approved clamps, cables and reels

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

The 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.

   FM / ATEX approved earthing clamps

 
Tungsten carbide tips

 

ATEX / FM approved static earthing clamp.

Electrical continuity from tips to cable connection of less than 1 ohm.

Vibration resistant contact with positive spring action.

Corrosion resistant stainless steel construction

5 good reasons to specify ATEX & FM approved clamps

    1.   Clamp Pressure Testing
          Ensures the 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 clamp is less than 1 ohm (FM
          approvals).

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

    4.   Mechanical Pull Testing
          Ensures the 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 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.
