14 Vibration Damper
The spiral vibration damper installed on the conductor or ground wire with small dia, to minimize the
vibration causing by the breeze.
The spiral vibration damper consists of a short section of gripping and a long section of damping. The
gripping section holding the conductor tightly to tighten the spiral vibration damper on the conductor line. The
damping section to minimize the vibration with collision of conductor line. The spiral vibration damper is made
of solid PVC.
Spiral Vibration Damper

Turning Fork Type Damper

Trait:
1）Spiral Vibration Damper could efficiently restrain the vibration of the conductor caused by breeze.
2）The design of 4D series vibration damper offered by H&C Company is Stockblique turning fork, and the
multi-resonant Vibration Damper is mainly used to reduce and disperse the impact power on the cable caused
by the vibration of the breeze.
3）Easy and quick installation could be finished by a person without any special tool.
Note：
1） The gripping section of spiral vibration damper should be set on a 30cm distance from the ends of armor
rods or other fittings.
2） The Spiral vibration damper can be used frequently without any damage on workers face.
3） The direction of the big hammerhead should face the tower when installing the Vibration Damper.

When choosing the damper, two factors should be taken into consider, one is damper weight, The other is
diameter of the conductor. Considering all the main factor of the conductor/ground wire such as Tensility,wind
speed,landform.
