ULTRASH T® • The patented electric ignition system, produces a high quality connection while eliminating the inconsistencies associated with using the old starting powder process. The elimination of

the starting powder has also been shown to reduce emissions and extend mold life.

• New UltraShot Controller uses an 18v Milwaukee lithium ion battery that makes it easier to charge and use.

• The system provides superior safety by allowing the user to maintain a safe distance from the reaction during ignition.

• Reduces labor and material costs due to misfi res.

• Uses the traditional method of ignition with starting powder.

• Innovative dual chamber design keeps weld metal and starting powder separate until point of use.

• Reduces material and labor costs by eliminating migrating starting powder issues.

Step & Touch Voltage

Touch VoltageEliminate Touch Voltage Threats by providing additional ground conductors in the area of the Touch Voltage hazard such as a switch handle.Options include: • Personnel Safety Mats • Counterpoise Wires

Step VoltageEliminate Step Voltage Threats by providing additional ground conductors (electrodes) in the area of the step voltage hazard such as the perimeter of the Substation Grid.Options include: • Additional Grid Conductor • Additional Ground Rods • Use of Deep Driven Ground Rods • Prefabricated Wire Mesh
