The Earth-Rite® II MGV system is an exclusive, patented technology designed to provide automatic confirmation of a positive static ground connection for vehicles used to transport flammable and combustible products.

Vacuum tankers and chemical road tankers build up static charges during transfer: an invisible accumulation that can become an ignition source if discharged as a spark. API RP 2219 recommends connecting the vehicle to a verified ground before transfer; MGV makes this possible in a safe, verified way.

Technology

  • Ground point verification: checks that the resistance of the connection is low enough to dissipate charges from the vehicle.
  • Continuous monitoring: after verification, it monitors the resistance throughout the transfer, keeping it at ≤ 10 Ohm.

Scope of supply

Main unit (Ex-d in aluminium or Ex-e in GRP), junction box with parking stud, large (30 mm) and small (15 mm) ATEX grounding clamps, Hytrel coiled cables, 15 m ATEX cable reel, breakaway connector. Accessories: installation kit, CRT tester, intrinsically safe PCB, portable kit, ATEX beacon, sun shield.
