[email protected] HOW YOU SET UP YOUR WORKPLACE IN A ESD-SECURE WAY STATIONARY WORKPLACE WORK IN THE EPA AREA MOBILE WORKPLACE WORK ON THE ROAD An ESD-safe workplace is indispensable in order to safely and properly carry out work and measurements on electrostatically sensitive components. It doesn‘t happen often that fully assembled components or assemblies can be handled, repaired or serviced in ESD protected areas. This is where so-called ESD workplaces are needed. In fixed installations, such as in EPAs (electrostatic discharge protected areas), all elements that come into contact with people and components should be electrostatically conductive. Foot mats, workplace pads, large assemblies and personnel grounding are earthed by so-called earth bonding plugs, while it is important to pay attention to ESD logos for clothing and tools. The traditional mobile workplace (also called a handling set) consists of a workplace pad, a wrist band for grounding of personnel and an earthing cable with a earthing plug. If there are no plug sockets available, the earthing cable can also be attached to grounded metal surfaces using a crocodile clip. When properly set up, static electricity is discharged via the mat. But when using this method, it is important to make sure that the hand-to-earth resistance is less than 3.5 x 107 ohms. MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING Grounding connections, mats and earthing plugs should be inspected on a weekly basis and wrist bands every day. Special cleaning agent must be used when cleaning them as conventional household products may leave behind an insulating coating.
