BLTU
The ground bond test specialist.
BLTU is an automatic and portable bond and loop resistance tester with operator guidance.
Good bonding ensures unwanted current from lightning strikes or faulty equipment can be safely routed away from the structure. The BLTU provides automatic testing of ground bonding points on aircraft and other large structures and records the test data for full traceability.
Main BLTU Applications
Measuring resistance on aircraft, helicopters, UAV’s & large structures such as wind turbines, & chemical plant infrastructure
