Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of electrostatic grounding systems, in particular to a special testing tool for an electrostatic grounding system of an RTR tank truck. Background Art
[0002] During daily use, it was found that when the special grounding clamp was connected to the tank truck grounding point, the RTR tank truck special electrostatic grounding system could not identify the connected object as a tank truck or the tank truck grounding resistance was greater than 10Ω, and the interlock did not allow unloading. For the above faults, the RTR tank truck electrostatic grounding system may have the following problems: poor tank truck grounding contact, damaged grounding clamp, damaged grounding clamp connection line, etc. When maintenance personnel want to test, the tank truck cannot wait for a long time for testing, resulting in a waste of maintenance time and an increase in maintenance costs.

[0006] The internal circuit structure is as follows: a No. 1 capacitor is provided on the grounding wire in the junction box, and a No. 1 resistor, a No. 2 resistor, a No. 3 resistor and a No. 4 resistor are sequentially connected in series on the side of the No. 1 capacitor close to the tool clip lead-out line, and the No. 4 resistor is connected to the tool clip lead-out line.
