Air termination

Free-standing air termination

Free-standing interception air rods are easily constructed

from a small range of components including air rod or

interception pole, support frame and concrete base, to create

a complete unit which when connected to the air termination

network provides a highly versatile and effective lightning

protection solution.

Features & benefits

–– Protects rooftop mounted equipment from direct

lightning strikes

–– Complies with IEC/BS EN 62305 standard

–– Lightweight construction

–– Corrosion resistant
