Static Discharge Grounding Reel
Static Discharge Grounding Reels are used to ground static charges on service equipment during the transfer of
combustible fuel and other flammable liquids. The Static Discharge Grounding Reels supplied with your OilSafe
®
System
are spring operated automatic retrieve reels containing standard steel aircraft cable.
The reel is compact in design, for convenient mounting to your OilSafe
®
tank frame and provides a light, constant spring
tension on the grounding cable, keeping the cable from becoming tangled.
The reels are constructed of steel and are equipped with a 100-ampere ground clamp and rubber covered bumper. An
instant-acting lock and release provides operator convenience.
IMPORTANT:
CARE MUST BE TAKEN when reeling the cable back onto the reel. DO NOT let go of the cable –
walk it back towards the reel, always keeping tension on the cable.
The cable stop assembly may be adjusted to any position. The mechanical locking device works positively and in all
positions, regard- less of the cable retraction speed. The lock engages at the desired position by pulling the cable
approximately ½". The lock release knob completely disengages the lock to constant tension. Care should be taken to
mount the reel on the front face of the OilSafe
®
tank frame where threaded holes have been provided.
For instructions on use, see page 23.
