Product description
VESX45 Clamp + CENSTAT CABLE
ATEX, FM and IECEx approved clamps tested for:
• Clamp Pressure
• Electrical Continuity
• High Frequency Vibration
• Mechanical Pull
Tungsten carbide teeth are designed to penetrate electrical impedances caused by rust, coatings and product deposits.
Static grounding clamps must be capable of breaking through coatings, product deposits and rust to ensure a good electrical connection to process equipment.
Operators should be trained to toggle the clamp back and forth to bite through the coating and establish a visual connection to the base metal.

Cen-Stat cable
Cen-Stat is a range of brightly coloured cables specially designed for applications in industrial and hazardous areas.
Cen-Stat cables are based upon Hytrel® that combines the flexibility of rubber with the strength and process flexibility of thermoplastics.
Cables made from Hytrel are mechanically resilient, have a wide working temperature and are resistant to a wide range of chemicals, as well as strong and durable.
Included in our Cen-Stat formulation is static dissipative material that limits the cable from carrying an electrostatic charge and additives that provide protection against exposure to ultra-violet light.
The conductor is composed of multi-stranded galvanized steel threads providing a conductor cross-sectional area of 4 mm² (11 AWG), and with the coating included provides a cable diameter of 6.5 mm (0.25”).
Cen-Stat is supplied in standard retractable spiral lengths of 3 m (10 ft), 5 m (16 ft), and 10 m (32 ft).
Cen-Stat is supplied with Newson Gale’s heavy duty clamps. Other lengths are available on request.
