Antennas with non-conducting surfaces
• Antennas with non-conducting surfaces (e.g. Rod antenna and Process Seal
antenna) may generate an ignition-capable level of electrostatic charge under
extreme condtions.
Therefore, when the antenna is used in a potentially explosive atmoshpere,
appropriate measures must be taken to prevent electrostatic discharge.
