Summary
ALPTEC uses a new type of electrostatic sub-conductor to make the Personal Electrostatic Eliminating Alarm, which can slowly discharge and ensure personal electrostatic that it will not catch fire.
We all have
the experience
of being shocked by electrostatic discharge. The electrostatic is carried by
the human body can reach up to 5,000 volts. Hidden dangers of discharge and
ignition may be caused if it is not removed in time. In recent years, petroleum industry has
developed rapidly, and the accompanying electrostatic accidents have also
occurred frequently, causing greatly economic
losses and personal casualties. The causes of electrostatic accidents are not
complicated, but they are extremely concealed, which brings confusion and
pressure to the safety management of enterprises.
In order to solve the
potential safety hazards caused by excessive personal electrostatic in the
petrochemical industry, ALPTEC decided to establish a project
in October 2007 and is committed to the research and development of Personal
Electrostatic Eliminating Alarm(PS-A for short). It was officially completed in
June 2009. The birth of the PS-A has opened a new milestone in the domestic
market for personal electrostatic discharge. The PS-A is the first personal
electrostatic discharger that can intelligently provide audible and visible
alarms in China. It can intelligently
detect whether the static voltage of the human body has been removed. When the
static voltage of the human body is at a dangerous value, an audible and visual
alarm is issued. A new generation of explosion-proof products designed for the
petrochemical industry.
After 14 years, PS-A
has been upgraded for 6 generations, which is more and more humanized, and it
can guide employees to touch and release personal electrostatic to ensure the
safety of production.
Prior to this, the
static elimination devices were widely used in the country which was the method
of directly grounding stainless steel metal conductors to eliminate personal
electrostatic. This method uses inter-conductor discharge, which inevitably has
a large electrostatic discharge energy, and there is a great potential safety
hazard of spark discharge. From a safety perspective, it actually adds an
"ignition source". ALPTEC broke through the technical limitation, and
after nearly one year, the electrostatic sub-conductor touch ball was born! The
conductive ball made of special materials can release the static electricity of
human body slowly at the same time, suppress the static energy, and ensure that
no sparks are generated at the moment of contact.
ALPTEC
has always been committed to professionally manufacturing Static Grounding
& Overfill Protection products, with the constant focus on bringing more
value to customers, and sincerely looks forward to in-depth exchanges and
cooperation with domestic and foreign customers.
