Multiple Field Electric Compensator

SERTEC Electromagnetic Field Protector
The PDCE-CMCE SERTEC Protector aims to protect people, animals and structures in
installations on land, air and water from any electrical phenomenon whose means of
transport is air.

The PDCE-CMCE SERTEC is designed to protect using countermeasures that control and
compensate the electroatmospheric effects produced by climate change, industrial,
meteorological or solar electromagnetic pollution, manifested in the form of electrical storms,
electromagnetic pulses, etc. The PDCE SERTEC is permanently protecting its coverage area to
correct the effects of electromagnetic disturbances according to their origin, frequency, voltage
and intensity. Compensating, stabilizing the current of the electric charges in its environment,
draining them to earth in harmless milliamperes, minimizing the formation of the lightning in its
protection area

The PDCE-CMCE SERTEC is the result of the discovery of the behavior of electroatmospheric
phenomena that interact in the atmosphere of our planet. The novelty of this technological
development is supported by the well-known laws of OHM and Maxwell's equations, on which
this new technology is based. Essentially to have at all times the stabilized electric field of the
atmosphere referring to earth in the protection area. The system behaves passively at the level
of prevention, based on atmospheric electrical activity with the aim of maintaining a clean and
controlled environment of electrical and magnetic contamination.

In 1916 Nikola Tesla

in his patent No.
1,266,175 mentioned the
operating principles of a
primitive device based on
the principles that underpin
our developments, explaining
the inconveniences caused by
the lightning rods, which instead
of protecting property and people,
attracted the rays increasing the
feasibility of electric discharges and
consequently the risks that they entailed.

New materials and designs, added to years

of experience, have allowed us to improve the
experiences of the undisputed scientist Nikola
Tesla, evolving in the protection of atmospheric
phenomena.

OPERATING
Principle
The multiple electric field compensator,
CMCE SERTEC
is a passive sensor system designed to balance and deionize at all times the effects of atmospheric phenomena
through multiple compensators, generating a protective shield in its coverage area, its operating principle is
based on compensating, stabilizing the existing electric field in its environment, in this way it cancels the formation
of the ascending tracer neutralizing the lightning draining the electric charges to earth, in harmless milliamperes.

Each capacitor has one of its electrodes

referenced to earth which is charged with the
same polarity as this one. The free electrode
induces atmospheric charges of polarity contrary
to that of the earth, balancing internally, between
its electrodes, which generates a potential Drain current

CLIMATE
CHANGE
CURRENT SITUATION
The current climate change is generated by air pollution,
deforestation, greenhouse gases. To all this we should add
the solar flares that when they reach our atmosphere,
generate weather phenomena causing the electrification of
the severe atmosphere for hours, creating large
thunderstorm cores with a lot of lightning activity, where the
positive polarity predominates (rising lightning) , although
there is also a negative polarity (descending lightning).

In normal weather, a voltage higher than 120V / m created

by the potential difference between the ionosphere and the
earth appears at sea level. This value varies constantly
depending on the natural electrification of the atmosphere,
either by solar flares or by the formation of electrical storms.
Our atmosphere is a perfect laboratory where the
molecules of the gases recombine to find their stability,
varying pressures and temperatures according to their
electrical excitation, which turn into different meteorological
phenomena. When the atmosphere is excited, it seeks
equilibrium, thus generating large displacements of
masses to compensate, in its wake creating winds and
changes in the state of the water molecule, transforming
into a broad catalog of clouds. Thunderstorms are
responsible for accidents and human losses.

EVOLUTION
Of The Lightning Rod
Benjamin Franklin, published in London in his famous almanac (Poor Richard's Almanack), an
article where he proposed the idea of using pointed steel rods, on roofs, to protect themselves
from falling lightning. His theory was tested in England and France before he even executed his
famous comet experiment in 1752. One would say that he invented the lightning rod and
presented the so-called single fluid theory to explain the two types of atmospheric electricity, the
positive and negative.

In 1753, the Russian Georg Wilhelm Richmann followed Franklin's investigations to verify the
protective effect, but in his investigation a lightning strike struck him when he was excited and
attracted by the lightning rod, and he received a deadly electric shock when manipulating part of
the installation of the lightning rod.

The foundation of an ESE (Early Streamer Emission) terminal as it is known generates impulses
of controlled magnitude and frequency at the tip of the terminal during high static fields before a
lightning strike. This allows the creation of an uplink leader from the terminal that propagates
into the downlink leader from the cloud.

A lightning conductor creates an electric field distribution with field lines concentrated at its tip,
thus facilitating the current of ionized particles, which is a lightning bolt. This applies to any
lightning rod, when trying to facilitate the path of charges and therefore say that it is "attracts
lightning".

Already in 1916 Nikola Tesla in his patent Nº 1.266.175 mentioned the principles of operation of
a primitive device based on the principles that sustain our product, the protector of
electroatmospheric field PDCE-CMCE SERTEC, explaining the disadvantages that already at
that time produced the point lightning conductors that instead of protecting the goods and
people, attracted the rays increasing the feasibility of fall of lightning and consequently the risks
for the goods and people.

....It is
popularly believed that by
allowing a leak into the air, the
needle-shaped lightning rod fulfills two
functions: one, to drain the ground of its negative
electricity, the other to neutralize the positive of the clouds.
To a certain extent it performs both functions. But a
systematic study of electrical disturbances on earth has
made it palpably evident that the action of the Franklin
conductor, as commonly interpreted, is largely illusory. The
actual measurement proves that the amount of electricity
escaping from numerous points is entirely insignificant when
compared with that induced within a considerable terrestrial area,
and unimportant in the dissipation process. But it is true that the
negatively charged air in the vicinity of lightning rods, which has been
converted into a conductor through the influence of lightning, facilitates
the passage of lightning. This increases the probability of lightning
strikes in the immediate vicinity. The fundamental facts behind this type of
lightning conductor are: First, it attracts lightning, so that it will be struck by
one more often than if it were not; second, it makes most, but not all,
discharges it receives become harmless; third, by turning the air into a
conductor, and for other reasons, it is sometimes the cause of damage to objects
in the vicinity; and fourth, in general, its power to prevent damage predominates,
more or less, over the risks it summons..... (condensed translation patent 1,266,175)

Description: Developed for special applications and Military use.
Protection

The innovation is based on the properties of Graphene, on which this new technology is based, since one of the
fundamental characteristics of this material is its great conductivity even superior to copper, its low resistance,
capable of converting every photon that absorbs in multiple electrons (excited electrons) and induce a greater
number of electrons than low energy photons that can conduct electrical current. To this strength is added that it is
the highest strength material known so far, it is estimated that it can be 200 times stronger than steel and at the same
time it is light as carbon fiber. The prevention and protection device behaves as a passive system and is designed to
generate counter measures to prevent the formation of electrical phenomena (lightning). Therefore, the device will
attenuate the formation of electric fields that are generated in its environment, maintaining a clean environment of
electrical, electromagnetic and magnetic contamination.
