PDC3.1
PDC3.1
The document is a brochure for INGESCO PDC lightning rods, which utilize an Early Streamer Emission (ESE) system to provide lightning protection. The brochure highlights various models, their specifications, and installation guidelines.
Specifications
The brochure details several models of lightning rods, including PDC 3.1, PDC 3.3, PDC 3.4, PDC 6.3, and PDC 6.4. Each model has a specified protection radius, ranging from 35m to 113m, depending on the model and protection level (I to IV). All models feature a double ESE system with an electro-atmospheric capacitor and atmospheric accelerator, tested by LABELEC.
Warranty and Quality
All products come with a 10-year warranty against manufacturing defects and are effective in various atmospheric conditions. They comply with standards NFC 17-102:2011 and UNE 21186:2011, and the company holds ISO 9001:2015 and 14001:2015 certifications.
Materials and Construction
The lightning rods are made from AISI 316L stainless steel, ensuring durability and maintenance-free operation. They are non-electronic and tested to withstand up to 200kA.
Installation Guidelines
The installation involves fixing the air terminal to the mast, connecting down conductors, and ensuring proper grounding. Two types of grounding systems are recommended: Type A (horizontal or vertical electrodes) and Type B (ring-shaped electrodes). For rocky grounds, a vertical electrode-grounding plate is suggested.
Operation
The PDC lightning rod generates an upward flow of ionized particles to attract and channel electrical discharges safely to the ground. Its design enhances lightning capture and extends the protected area.
Testing and Certification
The INGESCO PDC has passed various certification tests, including product certification by Bureau Veritas, streamer emission time evaluation, current support, insulation in wet conditions, and mechanical tests.

OPERATION CAPTURE SYSTEM • Fix the central axis of the air terminal to the lightning head-mast adaptor piece. • Pass the down conductor cable through the interior of the mast and connect it to the base of the adaptor, fixing it using two Allen screws. • Couple the adaptor inside the mast. Secure it with its screw. • Connect all the metallic structures that are within the safety distance using spark gaps. The INGESCO® PDC lightning rod generates an upward flow of ionized particles that safely attracts and channels the electrical discharge to the ground, preventing lightning strikes in unprotected...
