Superior Protection for Critical Applications
At H.J. Hirtzer & Associates Inc., we understand the critical role that insulated links play in ensuring safety and reliability. Our links are designed to meet stringent standards and provide essential protection against Radio Frequency interference. Discover why choosing our high-quality, Navy-approved links can enhance the safety and performance of your operations.
Understanding RF
Radio Frequency (RF) refers to continuous electrical discharge emitted by radar, radio, and television towers, as well as microwave transmitters, satellites, and other high-frequency wireless communicators. As wireless communication technology advances, these high-frequency radio waves travel through the atmosphere and increase in intensity.
Dangers of RF Exposure
RF waves are captured by antennas and metal objects, leading to continual electrical discharge if not properly insulated. Cranes and other loading equipment can also absorb these waves, potentially causing burns to load handlers. In severe instances, RF can result in hazardous high-voltage electrical arcing.
Mitigating RF Risks
H.J. Hirtzer & Associates Inc. insulators, when positioned between the hook and lifting device, effectively prevent RF discharge from reaching the end of the hook. This protection safeguards load handlers from electrical burns and shields sensitive electronics from potential damage.
