High Purity Tantalum Grounding Rings

Overview

High Purity Tantalum Grounding Rings is a grounding device made of the special physical and chemical properties of tantalum. It is mainly used in electrical systems that require reliable grounding, corrosion resistance, and electromagnetic interference resistance in harsh environments.

Advantages

• Excellent corrosion resistance, can resist corrosion from almost all strong acids, alkalis, and salt solutions at room temperature.
• Tantalum has excellent conductivity, and it is not easy to form an oxide layer on the surface, and the contact resistance is stable, ensuring a long-term and reliable grounding effect.
• High melting point, can still maintain stable physical properties in a high-temperature environment, and the grounding ring will not soften or fail due to high temperature.
• Small size, light weight, small footprint, suitable for installation in compact equipment or pipeline systems.
• Good environmental protection, long service life, and low long-term maintenance cost.

Application

In electronic equipment, chemical pipelines, storage tanks, and other scenarios, static electricity is easily accumulated due to friction, induction, and other reasons. High Purity Tantalum Grounding Rings conduct static electricity to the ground through a low impedance path to avoid electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage to precision electronic components or safety hazards in flammable and explosive environments. In addition, Tantalum Grounding Rings can quickly conduct leakage current to the ground, reduce the potential of the equipment casing, and avoid the risk of electric shock.

1. Chemical industry: static grounding of strong acid, strong alkali pipelines, and reactors;
2. Oil and gas: lightning protection, grounding, and anti-static protection of storage tanks and oil pipelines;
3. Electronics and precision instruments: electromagnetic shielding, grounding of high-frequency circuits, and semiconductor equipment;
4. Marine engineering: anti-corrosion grounding of seawater desalination equipment and ship pipelines;
5. Power system: lightning protection grounding of high-voltage transformers and GIS equipment;
6. Aerospace: anti-interference grounding of precision instruments and spacecraft electronic equipment.

Installation Point

① Before installation, confirm the environmental conditions, specification matching and material compatibility check, cut off the power supply of the equipment and release static electricity.

② Prepare installation tools in advance, including torque wrench, sandpaper, ground resistance tester, welding equipment, anti-loosening nut/washer, etc.

③ The grounding lead should use tantalum wire or copper-plated tantalum wire with sufficient cross-sectional area, and the path should be as short and straight as possible to avoid bending or winding.

④ In large equipment or pipeline systems, tantalum grounding rings should be installed every 10-15 meters, and tantalum belts should be used to bridge to prevent static electricity accumulation.

⑤ Discarded tantalum grounding rings are recyclable metals and need to be collected separately to avoid mixing with other metals and reduce recycling costs.
