Equivalent Ion Surge Arrestor

The Equivalent Ion Lightning Blocking Device (PEICA Series) is a revolutionary new type of lightning protection device that breaks with tradition by providing "non-lightning-to-ground" protection. It is dedicated to creating comprehensive lightning protection and represents a revolutionary lightning blocking and disaster mitigation service.

Description

The device employs an induction array lightning rod and a dielectric-blocking strong ionization composite discharger, fully utilizing the thundercloud electric field to achieve passive strong ionization. The high-concentration plasma generated by the strong ionization discharger and dispersed towards the cloud-to-ground axis efficiently neutralizes the thundercloud charge attracted by traditional lightning rods. This causes the equivalent capacitor between the thundercloud and the ground to leak efficiently, becoming a "bad capacitor," thus preventing it from charging to the voltage level required for breakdown discharge (forming a lightning leader), fundamentally preventing direct lightning strikes.

Features

1. Does Not Attract Lightning to the Ground (Core Selling Point): Traditional lightning rods attract lightning to the ground, accompanied by currents of tens to hundreds of thousands of amperes; this product does not attract lightning to the ground, with the operating current (through current) during lightning protection being only in the microampere range, resulting in an extremely high safety factor.

2. Extremely Large Protection Range: Traditional lightning rods have a small protection angle (approximately 45 degrees) and a small protection radius. This product has a protection angle of up to 86 degrees (coverage angle up to 172°), and a protection radius that can reach 10 to 14 times the height difference ($R=14\Delta H$).

3. Elimination of Secondary Electromagnetic Hazards and Step Voltage: Since no large current flows to the ground, no destructive large magnetic fields or high induced voltages are generated in the surrounding area. There is no backflash voltage or step voltage hazard, ensuring the safety of nearby microelectronic devices, communication systems, and people and livestock.

4. Minimally No Requirements for Grounding Resistance: Traditional lightning protection requires extremely high grounding resistance ($R ≤ 10 ohms). This product is not sensitive to grounding resistance values; even in complex environments such as mountainous areas with high ground resistance of thousands of ohms, no cumbersome resistance reduction measures are required.

5. Intelligent Self-Contained Monitoring System: Equipped with a built-in data system and dedicated sensors, it can wirelessly transmit data in real time on the lightning protection process, equipment location, voltage, ambient temperature, battery voltage, etc., enabling remote monitoring and historical query of lightning protection data during thunderstorms.

6. Strong Military-Grade Weather Resistance: The main equipment is completely passive, enabling all-weather salt spray protection. Surface treatment meets the national military standard WJ463-1995, allowing stable operation in extreme environments ranging from -60℃ to +65℃.

Application fields

1. New Energy Field: Wind Power Plants (can be directly embedded or retrofitted on-site to the blade tips to suppress side-strike lightning), Village/Centralized Photovoltaic Power Stations (low investment, protects solar panels and surrounding personnel).

2. New Power Systems: High-voltage/ultra-high-voltage transmission lines and towers (e.g., 220KV/500KV lines of State Grid and China Southern Power Grid, which can significantly reduce or completely eliminate lightning tripping rates after installation).

3. Military and Special National Defense Security: Mobile radar vehicles accompanying troops, special lifting weapons and equipment, combat-ready military vehicles, field fortifications and camp protection, radar stations in high-altitude, heavily lightning-prone border areas, coastal long-wave transmission towers, etc.

4. Special Geographical Environments and Marine Lightning Protection: Lightning protection for island areas (creating "lightning-free islands"), offshore oil platforms, ice-resistant and earthquake-resistant buoy platforms, ships, luxury cruise ships, docks, oil depots, etc.

5. Smart Cities and Public Infrastructure: Smart integrated poles, smart building rooftops, airports (e.g., Changsha Huanghua Airport, Bali Airport), highways, communication/broadcasting towers, high-risk lightning strike areas in tourist attractions (e.g., Jiuhua Mountain, Huangshan Scenic Area).
