Portable, Self-Testing Grounding & Bonding Assembly Meets Heavy-Duty Applications



The popular self-testing Bond-Rite EZ, portable static grounding and bonding assembly is now available equipped with a heavy-duty stainless steel clamp able to provide reliable, long term service in virtually any application where permanent ground connections would be impractical. The new heavy duty clamp is fitted with a special jaw grip able to clamp onto virtually any surface, including field-installed grounding rods. This robust clamping mechanism, combined with sharp tungsten carbide “tooth contact points” penetrate through even the heaviest build-up of paint, coatings, corrosion, or other insulating deposits.

The new heavy-duty EZ clamp, like its general-application predecessor, is a self-contained, easy to use device, which provides, and continuously verifies, a low-resistance bonding connection. In service it signals the existence of a safe connection to ground - less than 10 Ohms - through a flashing green LED indicator on the handle of the monitoring clamp.

There are numerous operations in industry, transportation and emergency response where it is necessary to establish a low-resistance bond or connection to a local ground point, especially where vehicles such as vacuum trucks or a variety of other mobile or portable equipment are employed. In these situations, the Bond-Rite EZ offers a self-contained, easy to use device. It is available in a range of options, with 5m or 10m retractable Cen-Stat® cables, or with portable cable reels with up to 100-foot capacity.

The Bond-Rite EZ is ATEX certified as intrinsically safe and suitable for use in all flammable gas, vapour and combustible dust atmospheres. It also carries the equivalent FM and CSA approvals for all hazardous locations. The recently modified PCB now enables the battery to power the EZ for up to a year (based on typical cycle of 3 hrs use per day over a 5 day week). The Ultralife battery has a shelf life of 10 years.

The Bond-Rite EZ is just part of the Newson Gale range of static grounding and bonding equipment available from Newson Gale Ltd, the specialists in hazardous area static control.
