Lightning Warning System

The system is ideal for industrial facilities. Personnel working in exposed locations or facilities dealing with explosives or fuels can take protective measures when warned of lightning danger. It can then trigger its alarm to indicate when the danger has passed, allowing work to recommence as soon as possible. It is used for lightning warning applications and in research applications for measuring the local electric field. It measures the vertical component of the atmospheric electric field at the earth's surface. It is typically part of a larger electric-field system. It includes an integrated CR1000 datalogger, and so can be expanded with the addition of other sensors and peripherals.
