Description

A water-proof analog lightning strike counter is a universal type of lightning counter. When the lightning protection circuit system is functioning normally, there is no lightning current in the discharge line, and the lightning counter does not count. However, when a lightning current is discharged to the ground, the counter senses the current and performs lightning strike detection, accurately counting each strike by deflecting the numerical indicator.
While analog in function, it complements modern systems with features often found in digital setups, though without requiring a digital display. This analog lightning strike counter is suitable for all lightning protection system applications. It counts accurately without the need for batteries or an external power source. The device is designed to be dust-proof and water-proof, ensuring durability and consistent performance even in harsh environments

The Analog lightning counter can be installed with the down conductor suitable to mount on wall or mast. The installation diagram is as follows:
1) Loosen the two screw nuts in the back of the lightning counter, remove the clamp, put the down conductor of the lightning rod between the two screw nuts, and then put the pressing plate and then screw nuts, tighten the two screw nuts.
2) Pay attention to the down conductor of the lightning rod, the Installation and wiring diagram, the bareness part of the lightning rod and the mounting plate, and the pressing plate. The contact segment must be well connected to low down the contact resistance, to make sure counting accuracy).
