Description

Shield‑A‑Spark is an engineered safety solution from Gorman‑Rupp created to help minimize the risk of static or electrical sparks in pump systems operating in environments where flammable vapors or combustible fluids may be present. In pump installations — especially those handling petroleum products, chemical liquids, or in confined spaces — uncontrolled electrical discharge and static buildup can pose ignition hazards. Shield‑A‑Spark addresses this risk by providing spark suppression and enhanced electrical safety.

Designed to integrate with compatible Gorman‑Rupp pumps and accessories, Shield‑A‑Spark helps dissipate static charge and reduce the likelihood of electrical sparks during pump operation. Its construction and materials are selected to improve grounding and limit discharge points that could otherwise ignite vapors or combustible atmospheres. This added protective measure supports safer operation in industrial, municipal, and fuel‑handling applications where safety and compliance with electrical safety standards are critical.

Key Features:

• Reduces static charge and electrical sparking in pump systems

• Enhances safety in hazardous, combustible, or flammable environments

• Designed for use with Gorman‑Rupp pumps and systems

• Improves grounding and electrical discharge control

• Supports safer operation in industrial and fuel handling applications

Shield‑A‑Spark provides an important layer of protection for operators and facilities, helping reduce ignition risks and promote safer pumping operations in environments prone to combustible or flammable hazards.
