IOT CONNECTED Smart Effective Lightning Protection Technology

WHAT ARE THE EXPECTATIONS OF BUILDING DEVELOPERS AND MANAGERS? A RELIABLE LIGHTNING PROTECTION SYSTEM. A PERMANENTLY CONNECTED PRODUCT. It must ensure maximum safety against direct lightning damages to structures and occupants. Laboratory tests, real lightning test campaigns, standards compliance, international certifications by independent organizations are required. That offers building developers and owners a long-term state-ofthe-art protection. Predictive maintenance, real time fault detection, data collection during the product complete life cycle … are expected features by engineers....

connect PREVECTRON 3® UNIQUE ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY The patented OptiMax technology provides the Early Streamer Emission air terminal a perfect performance and protection repeatability. This innovative system leads to a 40% reduction of the standard deviations measured in High Voltage Laboratory: Less variations mean a more reliable upward streamer development process. It significantly improves the lightning protection performance and reliability. OptiMax Technology Optimized Performance Launched in 2015, the PREVECTRON 3® has been the first ever Early Streamer Emission lightning rod tested...

IoT technology spreads quickly into the industry. It supports the connection of industrial components to Internet. Users have a permanent access to monitor their equipment remotely: condition, temperatures, voltage, safety parameters etc… can be remotely monitored. www.indelec-connect.com M2M (Machine to Machine) technology has been selected by the Lightning Innovation & Research Institute. The PREVECTRON 3® Connect uses the widely available GSM/GPRS Quad-Band telecom networks. network connection, no space on the client servers, no impact on client internet bandwidth… As a pure “Plug &...

THE PROTECTION AREA THE PROTECTION RADIUS (Rp) OF A PREVECTRON 3® LIGHTNING CONDUCTOR IS CALCULATED ACCORDING TO FRENCH STANDARD NF C 17-102 : 201 THUS : 1, Rp (h) = √2rh -h² + Δ(2r + Δ) for h ≥ 5m et Rp= h x Rp (5)/5 for 2m ≤ h ≤ 5m The protection radius depends on a number of factors : • h(m) : is the height of the ESEAT tip over the horizontal plane through the furthest point of the object/area to be protected. • (m) : 20 m, 30m, 45m or 60m according to the Protection Level I, r II, III or IV assessed for the site using the Risk Analysis calculation (NF C 17-102 : 201 Annex A). 1 • Δ (m)...

STANDARD COMPLIANCE AND TECHNICAL VALIDATION Lightning is a natural phenomenon. Lightning air terminals are exposed to a very large range of events: extreme climatic conditions (temperatures, humidity…), high intensity electrical shocks up to several hundreds of thousands of Amperes, unpredictable lightning frequency… The PREVECTRON 3® Connect is a fully innovative product. Substantiating its compliance and reliability requires multiple standard references, test campaigns and field tests, conducted by our R&D engineers in more than 20 countries, from artic to tropical areas. Lightning...
