Then we would like to draw your attention to our new ESD tool holders, which create...

WHAT DOES ESD MEAN? ESD stands for electrostatic discharge. It is caused by the sudden equalisation of charge between objects with a different charge potential. This discharge can generate a large amount of electrical current. HOW IS ELECTROSTATIC CHARGE GENERATED? Every object has positive and negative elementary particles. Positive and negative charges normally neutralise each other. Objects are electrically neutral. However, if an object loses electrons, an imbalance arises. This imbalance is called the charge potential. Charged objects have a tendency to equalise by discharging. In the event...

ESD – HOW TO PROTECT YOURSELF AND YOUR COMPONENTS HOW CAN YOU PROTECT COMPONENTS? You can protect ESD-sensitive components by storing, handling and packing them in a completely ESD protected environment. Precautionary measures are taken in these areas to eliminate electrostatic build-up. The difference in potential is neutralised by slowly dissipating the charge, thereby preventing a sudden discharge. This abrupt release constitutes the real danger. A very short and rapid discharge generates a very high discharge current. It is important to identify ESD-sensitive components, ESD-safe working...

optimum resistance range charge discharge possible limited charge discharge possible hazard risk Hard discharge area SURFACE RESISTANCES The effectiveness of materials is classified according to their resistance properties. Here, surface resistance plays a particularly important role: it is the electrical resistance of a conductive layer on the surface. Depending on the resistance properties, a distinction is made between shielding materials, electrically conductive materials, electrically dissipative materials and insulating materials. ESD-compliant tools are also just as important. In the Bernstein...

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...
