Products Description

 

Tungsten copper lightning rod, as a device for protecting buildings or tall trees from lightning strikes, has a discharge function at the tip of the rod. Install it at the top of the protected object and connect it to the underground drainage network using compliant wires. It is made of tungsten copper alloy material, which combines the advantages of metal tungsten and metal copper. It has a high melting point, high hardness, resistance to burning, good conductivity, thermal conductivity, high temperature resistance, and adhesion resistance.

 

Tungsten copper material is also an instantaneous high-temperature material that can withstand high temperatures and stresses, and has a short working time, completing tasks in a few seconds to 200 seconds. Therefore, using it to make lightning rods is the best option. Moreover, the tungsten copper lightning rods made from it have high surface smoothness, extremely high precision, low loss, and practical.

 

Classification of Tungsten Copper Lightening Rod

 

1. Direct lightning tungsten copper lightning rod: suitable for petrochemical warehouses, radio and television, gas stations, construction buildings, beacon stations, communication base stations, meteorological stations, military bases, radar computer rooms, and bank buildings;
2. Special tungsten copper lightning rod: suitable for high-rise building microwave communication stations, radar base stations, beacon stations, communication base stations, military bases, radar computer rooms, bank buildings, astronomical meteorological observatory and other important places;
3. Pre-discharged tungsten copper lightning rod: When the lightning rod is hit by lightning, it flashes by the flashing body. Through the lightning waveform processing device, there is a 3mm gap between the shell and the central grounding rod to form a coupling capacitor. At the same time, the shell is grounded through an inductor coil (center grounding rod). When the downward pilot approaches the flasher, due to the extremely high frequency, the inductor is in an open circuit state, and the capacitor shows short-circuit characteristics to high frequency. Therefore, under the action of the coupling capacitor, the electric field strength of the flasher surface increases rapidly until the avalanche process is triggered, so that the lightning current can be discharged into the ground in an instant, so as to effectively achieve the purpose of lightning protection and safety.

 

 

 

features of Tungsten Copper Lightening Rod

 

Effective Tungsten Copper lightning rod was made possible by the mixture of tungsten and copper. Due to the high melting point of tungsten, a lightning rod can retain its shape since it will not melt or deform during a lightning strike and thus ensure the dependable conduction of lightning currents into the earth. Copper's excellent lightning fast conductivity enables the rods to lightning currents. This property allows lightning currents to flow more quickly through the rods, minimizing damage to structures and equipment caused by lightning strikes. Furthermore, tungsten copper lightning rods resist corrosion and mechanical destruction, enabling use in multitude natural regions. They withstand powerful winds and rain without eroding for long periods of time. Their smooth surfaces do not attract dust and dirt, reducing the risk of reduced conductive performance from soiled surfaces.
