Tanker Grounding

​

The Scully Groundhog™ Vehicle Static Grounding System Don’t let unsure grounding methods leave you guessing. Transport vehicles should be properly tied to ground before and during the loading operation. There should never be any doubt that the grounding systems at your terminals are performing their proper function. Many systems give you little assurance of their operation.

​

The Scully Groundhog™ gives you complete assurance that a proper ground tie-in is present. The Groundhog™ is a self-proving grounding system for maximum safety in loading operations.

 

The system consists of a rack mounted control housing with two installation methods. It can operate in conjunction with your existing Scully Overfill Prevention System or as an independent unit. Scully Signal Company has over 30 years of electronic liquid handling system experience along with the dependability, service and safety Scully is known for.

The Scully Groundhog™ grounding system can be used for a wide variety of loading applications for use with tank trucks, rail cars, and aircraft refuellers.

​

The Groundhog™ can be used as a completely independent system. This system is ideal for top loading or applications where a Scully Overfill Prevention System is not in use. The control monitor connects to a heavy duty Sculcon® junction box with attached cable and special quick release snap-on plug.

The Scully Ground Plug connects to a specially designed electronic Scully Ground Ball mounted on each vehicle. The controller in conjunction with the ground ball provides and verifies vehicle grounding before loading can begin. The controller must receive an electronic return signal from the ball throughout the loading operation.
