Ground Proving Clamp and Cable With Sculcon

Brand: Scully Signal Company
The Scully SC-47CC/CLMP Clamp and Cable Unit is designed to drain static charges built up on vehicles, railcars and other metal liquid tank containers. The clamp unit is designed to be connected, via two wires, to the Scully Groundhog™ grounding verification system. When the clamp is attached to bare metal on the tank container, the system utilizes an intrinsically safe signal to verify that a proper static bond exists during liquid transfer operations.

Static grounding is used to dissipate any static charges which can build up as a result of product flow or other movement. Some applications such as rail lines and pipelines may also have stray currents present. In these situations the rail or pipeline must be bonded to ground independently from the Scully system. Local codes should be consulted regarding wire gauges and number of conductors. 

If the clamp is not properly attached to the tank vehicle, the system will not allow product to transfer. If at any time during the transfer process the clamp is disconnected, the system will send a signal to stop the product transfer. 

The clamp and cable unit is connected to a heavy duty, weatherproof junction box. The junction box acts as a housing to connect the cable wires and the controller wiring. In the event of a drive-away, the cable pulls out of the junction box. This maintains vapor tight safety and prevents damage at the control monitor. Other systems without a junction box disconnect and may allow non-intrinsically safe signals within the liquid transfer environment during a drive-away accident.
Features
  • Verification of static grounding when properly connected to the trailer frame
  • Intrinsically safe operation
  • Spring-loaded clamp jaws with adjustable contact pins for a solid bond to the trailer frame
  • Heavy-duty, weather-sealed aluminum junction box to house cable wiring
  • The clamp and cable disconnects from the junction box during a drive-away accident, preventing damage to the control monitor and maintaining intrinsic safety
