DX Engineering UCGC-Z Universal Copper Grounding Clamps

DX Engineering Universal Copper Grounding Clamps, model DXE-UCGC-Z, are custom designed to provide a ground rod mounting solution for various types of lightning protectors commonly used for Amateur Radio. The "Z" design makes it easy to install and remove coaxial cable connectors. This ground rod clamp for surge protector mounting is ideal for permanent installations as well as for temporary installations, such as Field Day. The DXE-UCGC-Z Copper Grounding Clamp Features: - Mounts up to six protectors onto one ground rod - Fits common standard 5/8 in. through 3/4 in. diameter ground rods - Made from 1/16 in. thick Copper Alloy 110 for maximum conductivity -"Z" bends in the copper for easier installation and removal of coax connectors on protectors - Easy to assemble two-piece construction. Each plate is approximately 3-1/4 in. wide x 4-3/16 in. tall - Stainless Steel hardware is included: Four 1/4 in.-20 x 3/4 in. long hex head bolts, eight 1/4 in. flat washers, four 1/4 in.-20 Nyloc hex nuts - Using this copper clamp is faster and easier than building up the joint for an exothermic weld The DXE-UCGC-Z can easily mount up to six lightning protectors. The photo shows two DX Engineering and two PolyPhaser lightning protectors installed on a DXE-UCGC-Z mounted to a 5/8 in. diameter ground rod. Other lightning protection products can also be mounted, such as the DXE-IS-RCT Control Line Protector and Alpha Delta Lightning Protectors. Additionally, a solid copper strap from the station grounding bus bar may also be sandwiched between the copper plates of this clamp and the ground rod (not shown). An anti-seize compound such as JTL-12555 Jet Lube SS-30 Pure Copper Anti-Seize must be used on the threads to prevent galling or seizing of stainless steel hardware. All connections must be generously coated with a conductive joint compound to prevent moisture penetration and enhance conductivity. Properly weatherproofing coaxial cables and lightning protectors is important to ensure the longevity of the connection and maintain optimal performance. Prior to attaching the lightning protectors, install the coaxial cables to the lightning protectors and weather seal the PL-259 connectors using TES-2155 Temflex Rubber Sealing Tape with an overwrap of TES-06132 3M Super 33+ Vinyl Tape or 3M Scotch Super 88 Premium Vinyl Tape (TES-06143). These easily removable connector sealing tapes are now available in kits. The lightning protector bodies are not weatherproof and it is suggested to use a DX Engineering Weatherproofing Kits to permanently cover the body of the protectors. Some users have also suggested covering the entire assembly with a plastic food container or plastic trash bin As with all electronic equipment, take proper safety considerations. For example: Do not install if there is a storm anywhere in your area. Do not adjust or touch the grounding system equipment when there is a storm anywhere in your area. Make sure all power is removed before making any adjustments or working on any ground system or grounding components. Note: Whenever the DX Engineering "Documentation" tab is available, please look at the associated files for additional product information. Complete your coaxial cable grounding installation with DX Engineering UCGC-Z Universal Copper Grounding Clamps.

DX Engineering Weatherproofing Kits

DX Engineering Weatherproofing Kits weatherize your outdoor connections and prevent moisture entry and corrosion with vapor wrap and high quality electrical tape. When your non-weather resistant equipment needs to be mounted outdoors, these weatherproofing kits provide needed protection. Use these kits to protect lightning protectors, coaxial connections, antenna joints, steel hardware, junction boxes and just about anything you can wrap with tape by using these kits. The non-conductive malleable vapor wrap sealant is water-impermeable and withstands temperatures from minus 65 degrees F to plus 180 degrees F without cracking. Choose from Standard, Upgraded or Ultimate kits with different grades of vinyl tape. The WK-PRO Kit has more vapor wrap material and five rolls of tape for large projects. See each kit's detailed description. Note: Whenever the DX Engineering "Documentation" tab is available, please look at the associated files for additional product information. Reliable waterproofing is important to protect equipment and cable connections from damage caused by moisture penetration. Protect your equipment, handle extreme temperatures, and remain unaffected by water and UV sun rays with DX Engineering Weatherproofing Kits.
