Aluminum - Power Line Markers

 

P & R Technologies introduces the new Model 36MM Power Line Marker, primarily to meet the need for a marker on the new ACCS conductors and high voltage applications.  ACCS conductors are rated at up to 250° C (482° F), a temperature that will possibly melt plastic and fiberglass power line markers. The Model 36MM is a 36” diameter metal marker, tested to 500KV.

The new Model 36MM is aluminum, which can withstand the higher temperatures and voltages and weighs only 20 lbs, much less than fiberglass markers. The Model 36MM is attached to the line with spiral wire perform, proven reliable in 40 years of service. Long life is insured by the rugged construction of the aluminum marker.

The SpanGuard Model 36MM is available in powder coated polyester colors recommended by the FAA, namely international orange, yellow and white. Powder coating insures good adhesion and better color retention for 10-20 years.

 

NEW! SpanGUARD MODEL 36MM POWER LINE MARKERS

SpanGUARD line markers make overhead power lines visible to low flying aircraft, protecting valuable power lines and saving lives. SpanGUARD markers have been in service since 1950, secured to the power line by spiral perform wire. Over 600 utilities are using SpanGUARD markers and all are repeat customers.


PREFORM ATTACHMENT

The secret of the SpanGUARD 36MM is its unique construction method of attachment.  SpanGUARDS are fastened to the conductor by means of spiral formed armor rods. These spiral rods actually reinforce the conductor at the point of attachment and prevent the marker from slipping on the line. They are designed to protect the conductor. SpanGUARDs can be installed in a matter of minutes without special tools.

 

IMPROVED FEATURES

The new SpanGUARD Model MM construction is a great improvement. Helinut locking assemblies are provided so that the far side bolts are installed on the ground, the markers slipped over the line clam-shell-wise, and the installer does not have to worry about loose nuts, bolts and washers to assemble the marker up in the air. He simply uses a wrench to tighten the near side Helinuts.

Optional SpanBRITE reflective tape can be installed on the markers to make markers more visible at night from helicopters and small planes. The landing lights of the aircraft make the light reflected from the markers visible to the pilot.


OPTIONAL STAINLESS HARDWARE

Utilities near salt-water bodies often specify Stainless Steel Bolts in order to prevent corrosion of standard galvanized bolts.
