DISCHARGER: ANTI-STATIC, ALT: 10-900-59-1=7R

With electrostatic discharger technology virtually dormant for the last 20 years, electric charges on the surface of aircraft in flight and the detrimental effect of uncontrolled electrical discharge pulses on the performance of avionic systems have continued to pose problems for aircraft manufacturers worldwide. But at last a real breakthrough has been achieved by H R Smith (Technical Developments) Limited with the introduction of the revolutionary type T advanced electrostatic discharger. The type T advanced electrostatic discharger uses advanced semi-conductive composite materials to make the discharger base, rod and tip. The composite base offers compatibility with all airframe interface materials without suffering the corrosion problems sometimes seen with metallic discharger bases and airframes.
