HJ3’s Patented NFPA-69 Compliant Carbon Fiber System with ESD Technology
Power Generation + Static Electricity = A Dangerous Spark
In the world of power generation, safety and efficiency must go hand in hand. But when static electricity enters the picture, especially in facilities handling flammable materials like natural gas, coal dust, or battery chemicals, the risks escalate dramatically. A single static discharge can be the spark that triggers a catastrophic explosion.
Unfortunately, traditional repair systems often fail to account for this invisible threat.
The Hidden Danger in Power Facilities
Power generation infrastructure—from gas turbines to coal conveyors to battery storage units—operates in high-risk environments. These systems are constantly exposed to mechanical vibration, fluctuating temperatures, and airborne particulates that can all contribute to the buildup of static electricity. In facilities where even a tiny charge can ignite explosive atmospheres, managing electrostatic discharge is critical.
When critical infrastructure is damaged or begins to deteriorate, repairs are essential, but the process must not introduce additional risks. Traditional composite repair materials might reinforce the structure, but they don’t solve the electrostatic problem. In fact, they can exacerbate it by allowing static charges to accumulate on their surfaces with nowhere to go.
That’s where HJ3 steps in.
Introducing HJ3’s New Patented Technology, a Carbon Fiber Reinforced System with Electrostatic Dissipation Built In (HJ3’s ESD System)
HJ3 incorporates its patented ESD System (US 11,849,529 B2) into TankWrap™ and SiloWrap™, which is specifically engineered for power generation and agricultural environments where both structural integrity and static dissipation are essential. This is not a one-size-fits-all solution—it’s a purpose-built, NFPA 69-compliant system designed to support continuous, safe operations in high-hazard areas.
Unlike conventional composites, the HJ3 ESD System features electrostatic dissipation technology that channels built-up static safely to a grounding source. The result? Strengthened infrastructure that doesn’t compromise on safety.
Key Advantages for Power Generation Facilities
