Lightning Strike Recorder

Leveraging upon our technologically-advanced production facility, we are highly engaged in manufacturing and supplying Lightning Strike Recorder to our prestigious clients spread all across the country. It is designed to keep a record of all direct lightning strikes on the external lightning protection system. Beside this, offered Lightning Strike Recorder is manufactured under the strict vigilance of our qualified professionals using optimum grade components with the help of advanced technology.

Features:

• Long operational life
• Impeccable performance
• High functionality
• Sturdiness

Lightning Strike Recorder:

• The lightning strike counter is designed to keep a record of all direct lightning strikes on the external lightning protection system. The digital display (6 digits) allows a direct and comfortable reading of the number of recorded impacts.
• Lightning discharges counting and saving requires no external power supply and its work on electromagnetic impulse coupling. The lightning strike recorder (LSR1) is of non-resettable type in an IP 67 enclosure which enables the customers to use in any outdoor applications.

Installation:

• The lightning strike counter is fixed directly on the down-conductor using 2 mounting flanges located on the back face. No interruption of the down conductor is necessary, thus allowing an excellent electrical continuity of the installation down from the rod to earthing the system.
• The counter records the lightning current by induction at the time of passage in the down conductor. Detect and register lightning impacts with occur over an external lightning protection system.

Other details:

• 6 Digits
• Up to 999999 counts
• Testable using LSR-Tester

LPI Lightning Strike Recorder (LSR1) is a lightning strike counter. The LSR1 is simply mounted at any location along the down conductor route. Its purpose is to record the number of strikes captured and conveyed by the downconductor. When the lightning rod receive an impact of the lightning strike, discharge counter detects the energy dissipated by the down conductor, thereby incrementing the number. The LSR1 operates by sensing current by means of an inductive pick up loop. With the voltage impulse detected by the current transformer (CT) a trigger to the pulse counter then turns the counter to register the lightning event. The equipment does not require either external or internal power supply, as it is electromechanical and uses the power of the induced current dissipated through the down conductor.
