Do not clean surface.
Esd floor testing procedure.
Don t even think about making decisions without first testing the material following procedures in this test method.
The minimal definition of an esd smock is that it is static dissipative.
Overview learn about esd flooring short videos conductive vs dissipative.
Here s one proposed solution to the floor testing problem.
This means that measured panel to panel it has less than 1 x 10 11 ohms of surface resistance.
Remove from the surface only those items that might interfere with the test.
Esd sensitive devices shall also be removed.
First published in eos esd technology aug sept 1991.
Use two 5 pound electrodes and place them on the most commonly used area of the surface.
There are two distinct phases to evaluating and selecting esd flooring.
Overview learn about esd flooring short videos conductive vs dissipative.
It isn t as simple as measuring samples right out of the box.
Current flooring test procedures and the information they provide can be misleading.
A static control garment has 1 x 10 11 ohms surface resistance measured point to point on the garment.
Pip s certified esd plant auditors obtain a thorough understanding of the fundamentals of esd.
Additionally our auditing team members have been trained on how to properly perform esd control measurements as required by ansi esd s20 20 and iec 61340 5 1 esd program standards including.
Let s go through the entire process step by step.
A proposed test methodology for floor materials.
There are several esd floor test methods associated with and recommended by voluntary associations with a keen focus on the phenomenon and control of static electricity in work environments.
Many of the test methods ansi esd stm7 1 and astm f150 are developed to report the characterization of esd floor materials and more importantly their performance in combination with a person wearing.
Test procedure in accordance with ansi esd s4 1 section 6 4 periodic worksurface testing.
