Guyed
When mounting a Stormaster ESE terminal a
typical guyed configuration would involve the
following. See drawing SM-1 and Figure 29.
• Two sections of mast (Aluminium mast
& FRP mast) coupled together with a
inline coupling. Securing of guy wires is
completed at the eyelets as provided on
the inline coupling.
• Alternatively a guy ring can be supplied
which is installed at the neck of the mast
in between the Stormaster terminal
and the top section of the FRP. The guy
ring provides eyelets for
connection of the guy wires.
Freestanding
A freestanding mast configuration is
typically used in situations where protection
by isolation is required. For example a
Stormaster ESE terminal is installed 5 metres
or more away from a fuel storage tank.
Prior to installing the freestanding mast
ensure that:
• A spigot has been supplied with the
freestanding mast which allows
for external or internal mounting of the FRP
mast.
• The downconductor can exit through the
base of the freestanding
mast if run internally.
• Adequate information is provided for mast
foundation requirements.
LPI supplies a mast base welded directly onto the required length
of aluminium mast. The base has a hole in the bottom for the
downconductor to run if being routed inside the mast. Ordering Code:
