Product Name: Lightning Counter
Product Code: KLR 02
The KLR 02 Lightning Event Counter is a high-precision device designed to record the number of lightning strikes experienced by a structure or system. Built with a non-resettable electromechanical display and an inductive sensing probe, it offers accurate, maintenance-free operation for years.
Engineered for outdoor environments, its IP67-rated enclosure ensures full protection against dust, water, and sunlight exposure — making it ideal for long-term installation on lightning protection systems.
Key Features
🌧️ IP67 rated enclosure – Fully waterproof and dustproof, suitable for external installations.
🔧 Easy installation – Can be retrofitted to any lightning protection system.
⚙️ Non-intrusive detection – Built-in inductive proximity sensor detects transient lightning currents.
🔒 Non-resettable electromechanical display – Ensures secure and tamper-proof strike counts.
📍 Flexible mounting – Can be installed at any point along the down conductor.
🌡️ Wide operating temperature range – Performs reliably between -20°C to +85°C.
⚡ High discharge handling capacity – Tested up to 150 kA.
