The Universal Resistance Tester (URT) is designed to provide users of Newson Gale Bond-Rite® static earthing systems with a means of testing the permissive resistance range on a regular basis.
The easy-to-use tester consists of a pair of rotary switches that enable a competent electrical person to check the resistance level at which the earthing system should be working and conduct a PASS/FAIL test at the required setting.
The Earth-Rite® MGV Tester is a capacitance resistance tester (CRT) designed to have the same electrical characteristics as a road tanker and provides engineers with a means of checking that the Earth-Rite® MGV undergoing installation is permissive when it detects these characteristics.
The tester is connected to the Earth-Rite® MGV system and its earthing point, and when activated, the Earth-Rite® MGV’s LED indicators change from red to green, confirming that the Road Tanker Recognition and Static Earth Verification checks are functioning as intended.
The CRT is highly recommended with a minimum of one per site.
• Required for system commissioning and routine service checks
• Easy to use with simple PASS/FAIL condition
Newson Gale’s R-series of static earthing reels offer Hytrel® cable housed on an automatically retractable cable reel.
An optional stowage point is available for the VESX50-IP 2-pole magnetic earthing clamp. It allows the clamp to have a designated stowage point close to the item of ferrous metal-based plant that the operator can use to stow the clamp safely when it is not in use.
Cen-Stat™ is a range of brightly coloured cables specially designed for applications in industrial and hazardous areas. Cen-Stat™ cables are based upon Hytrel® that combines the flexibility of rubber with the strength and process flexibility of thermoplastics.
Cables made from Hytrel® are mechanically resilient, have a wide working temperature and are resistant to a wide range of chemicals, as well as strong and durable.
The Cen-Stat™ range of ATEX and FM approved static earthing clamps and systems are designed to operate in the harshest HAZLOC/EX areas. The certifications achieved by our range of clamps and cables benchmark their ability to establish and maintain good electrical contact with equipment requiring static earthing and bonding protection.
Equipment specifiers can order the Bond-Rite® CLAMP with 2-pole Cen-StatTM cable on standard spiral lengths of 3 m (10 ft), 5 m (16 ft) 10 m (32 ft) and 15 m (50 ft) of cable.
The spiral cable retracts when the clamp is not in use, ensuring the cable is neatly stowed and safely out of the way.
The Universal Resistance Tester (URT) is designed to provide users of Newson Gale Earth-Rite® static earthing systems with a means of testing the permissive resistance range on a regular basis.
The easy-to-use tester consists of a pair of rotary switches that enable a competent electrical person to check the resistance level at which the earthing system should be working and conduct a PASS/FAIL test at the required setting.
With this assembly operators tasked with earthing mobile process equipment will have a dedicated earthing point to attach the easy-to-use screw thread connector. The ‘plug-and-play connector can interface with all Newson Gale 2-core systems to provide earth monitoring capability on a wide range of mobile processes and equipment where generic earthing clamps cannot be used. The conical shape design aids in the reduction of powder deposit build-up over time and aids in clean-down operations.
A quick and easy-to-use earthing kit which may be swiftly deployed in emergency or combustible material transfer operations where pre-existing designated grounding points are not available or accessible.
The portable earthing kit combines multiple shortened earthing rods (355 mm long) with surface wire grounding techniques to provide acceptably low resistance for static grounding requirements in field operations.
The flexible array of interconnected earthing rods is inserted into the soil at specified intervals to maximise the ability to safely dissipate static electricity from mobile trucks, service vehicles and other equipment.

The strobe light is mounted in an elevated position and when the equipment is correctly earthed, flashes continuously informing personnel that a transfer process is underway and is protected from the static hazard. The strobe light can be used in conjunction with this product.
• 115 V / 230 V AC and 24 V DC options
• ATEX / IECEx approved Ex d strobe light
• II 2G Ex d IIC T4 (Ta. -50° C to +70° C)
• II 2G Ex d IIC T5 (Ta. -50° C to +40° C)
• II 2D Ex tD A21 IP67 T125° C based on max. Ta. 70° C
Designed for operating environments subject to intense sunlight, the ERII Sun Shield protects against direct sunlight hitting the indicators on the static earthing system.
The Sun Shield casts a shadow over the indicators during peak sunlight hours so that operators can easily view the earth status indicators. The shield is constructed from stainless steel and can be fitted to any installation in a matter of minutes.
The IS Switching PCB is an additional circuit board added to Newson Gale system enclosures, enabling users to directly interface with, and switch, intrinsically safe circuits without the need for additional equipment. The IS Switching PCB is designed not to affect the IS signals electrical parameters and is compatible with this product.
The retractable cable reel is supplied for grounding system installations where customers want to ensure the grounding clamp and cable are returned to the static grounding system by operators and drivers on completion of the product transfer process. The reel can be used in conjunction with this product.
