RESLO-20 – Earth Enhancing Compound 20 Kg

LPI® Earth Enhancing Compound RESLO-20

Due to varying soil conditions from one site to the next the installation of earthing conductors alone are typically insufficient in achieving a low resistance earth.
The application of earth enhancing compounds around the conductors in an earthing system aids significantly in achieving the desired low level resistivity levels required for an effective earthing system.

LPI RESLO-20 is a low resistance, non corrosive earth enhancing compound which is supplied in easy to handle 20 Kg bags.

Benefits:
* Significantly reduces earth resistance
* Long lasting treatment with no maintenance required
* Effective under varying soil conditions
* Minimal seasonal changes in resistance values
* Easy to handle and install
* Environmentally friendly
* Does not adversely affect soil
* RESLO-20 solidifies and does not wash away
* No maintenance required
* Independently tested by Australian University

Product Description

The requirement for a low resistance or impedance is extremely important with the installation of any earthing system. LPI’s RESLO-20 provides the ability to dramatically reduce this resistance, especially in soils that have moderate to high electrical resistivity.

RESLO-20 is comprised of specially-selected compounds that possess excellent electrical conductivity and anti-corrosion performance. When RESLO is mixed with water and poured around the earthing system and surrounding soil, the powder and water react to form a hardened mass around the earthing system. RESLO will not wash away under wet seasonal conditions and therefore provides a permanent presence in working to improve and maintain the integrity of an earthing system.

RESLO-20 is not a cement-based product that sets solid under many variable conditions, but rather a bentonite- and gypsum-based product. As such, the mechanical state of the installed product will depend upon many variables, such as soil moisture content, soil porosity and the amount of water added at mixing time.

At one extreme, with highly porous and dry soil, the product will set into a plaster form within a few hours, retaining sufficient moisture to ensure long term electrical conductivity.

At the other extreme, in very wet soil conditions, the product will absorb the required amount of moisture from the surrounding soil and remain as a “plastic clay”, a design feature of the product to hold and retain moisture to ensure long term electrical conductivity.
