ALS Dissipation System

Lightning prevention systems has been manufacturing this patented system for over twenty years. Our patented air terminals have been used across the world on thousands of structures that house hi tech / delicate electronics, mission critical, or flammable/ combustible materials. The ALS air terminals operate as a prevention type system to the structures installed on. The ALS are UL listed air terminals and meet NFPA requirements. The ALS simply takes place of each individual lightning rod a utilizes the same components and design.

Ionic emission is natures way of neutralizing a highly charged area, be it a cloud, an object, or the ground surface area. In order for nature to neutralize a highly charged area (lightning) there has to be three conditions present:

1) A generally negatively charged thunder cloud.
2) A generally positively charged surface underneath it.
3) A path between the two charges.

The lightning rod, which uses the point discharge (corona effect) to attract the stepped leader of a thunder cloud, is constantly dissipating ions into the atmosphere. By multiplying the number of discharge points thousand of times, a static dissipater was developed to gather the static build up or electrical charge on an object and rapidly dissipate the charge into the atmosphere. The wind and circulation of air particles typically blow these accumulated ions into the atmosphere thereby neutralizing the charge of the object. On a continuous operational basis, the ground charge never reaches a high enough value to be attractive to a lightning strike.

Nature neutralizes a cloud by dissipating ions to the earth's surface, LIGHTNING PREVENTION SYSTEMS neutralize your property by dissipating ions into the atmosphere. By sufficiently depleting the amount of charge on the earth's surface and on surrounding structures .Two of the three elements necessary for a strike to occur have been eliminated, thus a lightning strike has been prevented. A feature of static dissipation is eliminating unwanted signal noise. An electrical storm or friction of air molecules on a windy day can cause signal noise from the static charge build up on the tower or antenna. Static dissipaters eliminate this because they are constantly bleeding off static charges.
