Product catalog summary
Overview: The document details the specifications, technology, quality, warranty, and installation procedures for the PDC.E lightning rod with Early Streamer Emission (ESE) system. It complies with NFC 17-102:2011, UNE 21186:2011, and NP 4426:2013 standards.
Technology: The PDC.E uses a capacitive circuit and atmospheric accelerator to generate an upward leader, tested by LABELEC and certified by Bureau Veritas. It is made from AISI 316L stainless steel, ensuring high protection and efficacy.
Quality and Warranty: The product meets current regulations and holds ISO 9001:2015 and 14001:2015 certifications. It offers a 5-year warranty against manufacturing defects and operates effectively in temperatures from -40ºC to +90ºC.
Protection Levels: The PDC.E is available in four models (15, 30, 45, 60) with varying protection radii, ranging from 35m to 113m, depending on the model and protection level (I-IV).
Installation Instructions: The document provides detailed steps for installing the lightning rod, including fixing the air terminal, connecting down conductors, and grounding systems. It emphasizes the use of spark gaps and proper anchoring techniques.
Grounding Systems: Two types 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.E detects electric field increases and releases energy to create an upward ion leader, channeling lightning safely to the ground.
Testing and Certification: The PDC.E has undergone various tests, including streamer emission time evaluation and mechanical tests, ensuring reliability and compliance with standards.

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONSCAPTURE 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. • Anchor the mast to the structure using the most appropriate support and, if necessary, fix the mast to the cover using anchor braces. • Fix the down conductor with clamping brackets,...
