Product selection

Free standing air rod selection is based on two factors:

a) air rod height required to create the necessary

protective zone around the equipment

b) anticipated wind loading at the installation

Wind loading is an important factor, especially for

taller interception air rods as extreme weather can

subject them to fatigue mechanisms.

For UK installations, the map featured right highlights

four key wind zones from which the appropriate free

standing air rod can be established.

Relevant part numbers can then be determined

through cross referencing wind loading with the

height of air rod required in the table below.

For non-UK installations, please refer to available data

for local wind conditions or contact your Furse

representative to discuss your particular requirements.

For details of individual components, refer to page 41

for copper/aluminium air rods and pages 48-49 for

interception poles, support frames and concrete bases.
