Esd Protective Mat Testing
Rtt testing for esd resistance per ansi esd s4 1.
Esd protective mat testing. Point to point resistance is 10 8 10 9 ohms and point to ground resistance is 10 5 10 6 ohms. Since static exists on the surface of an object what we want to test anti static mats for is their ability to dissipate static on their top surface or work surface. A m150261 04 14 15 file. Hence the title ansi esd s4 1 worksurfaces resistance measurements.
Ansi esd s 4 1 2006 provides test procedures for evaluating the electrical resistance of work surface materials. Megohmmeter test kit esd stm12 1 seating megohmmeter test kit ansi esd s20 20 table 1. Ansi esd s4 1 2006. Esd soldering mats made in usa.
This requires the use of a surface resistivity esd meter to perform both resistance top to top rtt and resistance to groundable point rtg tests. The surface of this bench mat is designed with a reflection breaking finish to reduce glare and improve operator comfort. This is the official video from american hakko in this video we test the resistance of an esd mat per standard ansi esd s20 20 using a multimeter versus tw. Production supplies such as mats flooring garments gloves chairs packaging etc.
The ansi esd association standard used in the united states to test that an esd mat is static dissipative is ansi esd s4 1 worksurfaces resistance measurement s. Ac fan 120 x 38mm 115 vac 2900 rpm. Esd protective item epa access controlled esd protective versions of insulators signs electrical ground worksurface. They are designed for electronic repair or assembly facilities to protect esd sensitive components during the soldering process.
Esd protective wrist strap. Application note an 40 005 rev. A textured 2 layer esd bench mat designed for use within epa work spaces. See item page for pricing.
The matting also provides protection against small collisions thanks to the forgiving nature of rubber. Test procedure according to ansi esd s20 20 2014 an acceptable work surface will have a point to point and a point to groundable point resistance of less than 1 0 x 10 9 ohms. Electrostatic discharge esd is the sudden flow of electricity between two electrically charged objects caused by contact an electrical short or dielectric breakdown a buildup of static electricity can be caused by tribocharging or by electrostatic induction the esd occurs when differently charged objects are brought close together or when the dielectric between them breaks down often.
