Description
Lightning strike recorder is designed to count and record the lightning strikes captured by lightning protection systems such as ESE lightning rods, simple capturing rods and the cage method. The Lightning strike recorder is necessary to determine whether the lightning rod received any lightning strikes.
The counter is connected to the down conductor of the lightning arrester and therefore it detects the electromagnetic field caused by lightning discharge current and it counts each strike and shows it by way of the number display.With the help of the Lightning strike recorder the customer can follow the number of lightning strikes arrested by system.

- Ease of installation, Flashcount can be retrofitted to any lightning protection system
- Non-intrusive and fast acting proximity circuit detects lightning transient currents
- Non resettable electro-mechanical counter
- Can be mounted at any location along the down conducto
