Lightning monitoring and early warning system for oil storage tank provides lightning protection early warning for hazardous chemical enterprises

Most of the storage tanks of hazardous chemical enterprises are stored in the open air, which are large and made of metal, and are the key targets of "thunder". This is true not only abroad, but also at home. Summer is a period of frequent lightning disasters, especially the thunderstorm season, and it is an important period of lightning protection for large hazardous chemical enterprises.

According to statistics, lightning activities in China mainly occur in May to September, of which May to August is the most active, during this period of lightning disasters accounted for about 80% of the annual total. During this period, we can often see the news reports of lightning resulting in casualties, can not be underestimated!

How can hazardous enterprises prevent lightning disasters? In addition to conducting lightning risk assessment before site selection and construction, avoiding areas with high lightning risk, lightning disaster early warning and defense programs should be implemented in strict accordance with lightning protection norms.

For hazardous enterprises, a small spark may cause major accidents such as fire and explosion, so it is necessary to install combustible gas alarms, lightning rods and other instruments in the risk area.

Lightning monitoring and early warning system for oil storage tank provides lightning protection early warning for hazardous chemical enterprises

The storage tank lightning monitoring and early warning system is a fully digital electric field detection and lightning early warning platform. Based on charge induction principle, MEMS technology is used, and there is no motor and other easily worn moving mechanical parts, which can meet the application requirements of atmospheric electric field detection and local lightning short-term early warning.

It is mainly composed of lightning warning probe, data processing host, solar power supply system, anti-direct lightning system, surge system, grounding system, lifting lightning rod and other equipment, it can be connected with the computer, has achieved the purpose of remote monitoring. The electric field measurement range is -30kV/m~30kV/m.

By analyzing the data, we can make a more accurate judgment on the intensity and polarity of the thunderstorm electrostatic field. The lightning monitoring and warning system of the oil storage tank can also be connected with the audible and visual alarm system, supporting the central monitoring software, data transmission follows the network protocol, and has 1 aviation jack and 1 network interface.
