Lightning Protection for Military Facilities and Government Structures
Whether it’s ammunition storage, a communications center, or asset storage and maintenance, there are no operations more sensitive to damage from lightning. Safety, security, and remote locations all make for challenging implementation of lightning protection for military facilities. Together, VFC and Lyncole have completed more successful projects for the U.S. military than any other facility protection company. Both in the U.S. and internationally, our team is ready to provide what your military or government facility requires.
Military and Government Facility Lightning Protection
It’s no surprise that there are many important structures and facilities associated with both the military and the government. These facilities contain sensitive equipment and information that must be protected from the adverse effects of lightning. Without proper lightning protection implementation, critical data could be lost and possible explosions could happen. So, what areas of a government or military facility can VFC help protect?
Ammunition Storage Lightning Protection
Protecting ammunition storage from a lightning strike is extremely important for obvious reasons. Ammunition storage lightning protection is arguably one of the most important aspects of protecting a military facility as it can cause physical harm to personnel. Since the type of storage varies depending on the type of ammunition, our team provides customized grounding engineering solutions to ensure safety across the entire facility.
Communications Center
Another important aspect of military and government facility lightning protection is protecting any on-site communication centers. These centers can house vital and important data that could be lost during a surge event. With industrial surge protection, VFC is able to protect this data and provide peace of mind.
Asset Storage
Similar to ammunition storage lightning protection, this is another area of storage in a government or military facility that needs to be protected. In addition to ammunition, this can contain fleet vehicles, rolling stock, and other high-value assets. Through our exclusive lightning protection products, we are able to prevent damage and keep assets safe.
