ESD Workstation Setup Video

Transcript

In this video, we are going to show you how to set up your 5300 series ANSI / ESD compliant workstation.

First, roll out an ESD safe mat roll.

This is the Elimstat 5300 series two-ply static dissipative mat. It is a two-ply nitrile rubber material that is 2 millimeters thick. The top surface is static dissipative and the bottom surface is conductive.

Next, remove the 4715 common point ground from the bag. Snap the common point ground onto the installed 10 millimeter snap.

Once the female snap on the mat is connected to the male snap on the common point ground, connect the eyelet on the other end of the wire to an outlet or to earth ground.

To install the eyelet onto an outlet remove the outlet screw and attach the eyelet onto the outlet screw. Screw both back into the outlet, making sure both are secured tightly. This grounds the mat and any accessory plugged into the common point ground.

Lastly, remove the wrist strap set from the bag and connect it to one of the two banana receptacles in the common point ground.

Wrist straps directly capture static from your skin’s surface, protecting your ESD sensitive components.

Common Point Grounds are Static Dissipative

Made of polished polyurethane (PU) the cord insulation itself is static dissipative.

1 Meg Ohm = 1 x 106 Ohms

ESD Resistance Chart for Common Point Ground

A 1 Meg Ohm Resistor is built inside the cord to slow down an electrostatic discharge event (ESD) from a highly charged ungrounded surface from discharging instantaneously through the cord.

Typically a 1 Meg Ohm Resistor slows down an electrostatic discharge (ESD) a few more milliseconds than if it were not present.
