ITECO 7804833-90 Work table kit, 90X60cm LABESTAT light blue, ground cable and bracelet

KIT for workbench, 90x60cm LABESTAT blue, grounding cable and wrist strap. Includes 2 x 10mm snap buttons.
This kit is designed to establish an electrostatic discharge (ESD) protected workstation effectively and completely. It is ideal for use in electronics laboratories, assembly areas, repair stations, and any environment where preventing ESD damage is crucial for safeguarding sensitive electronic components.

The kit typically includes:

• ESD Bench Mat:
  • Dimensions: 90 cm wide and 60 cm deep. These dimensions provide an adequate work surface for various electronic activities.
  • Material: Made of high-quality static-dissipative multilayer material. The top layer is dissipative (with a specific surface resistivity between 10⁷ and 10⁹ Ohms), allowing electrostatic charges to dissipate in a controlled and safe way. The bottom layer is conductive, facilitating grounding.
  • Color: Blue. The blue color may be preferred for aesthetic reasons or to distinguish different work areas.
  • Properties: Resistant to heat, solvents, and abrasion, ensuring long-lasting and reliable use.
  • Connection Buttons: Includes 2 integrated 10 mm snap buttons on the mat. These buttons serve as connection points for the grounding cable and potentially for other ESD accessories. The presence of two buttons offers flexibility, allowing both the main grounding cable and a wrist strap to be connected simultaneously, or to have a spare connection point.
• Grounding Cable:
  • Function: Allows the ESD mat to be connected to a safe ground point, effectively dissipating electrostatic charges from the mat to ground through one of the 10 mm buttons.
  • Typical components:
    • One end with a 10 mm snap connector compatible with the buttons on the mat.
    • The other end with an alligator clip or ring terminal for connection to the ground point (e.g., the grounded metal structure of the table, a dedicated ground socket, or a common ground point).
    • A 1 Megaohm (±5%) safety resistor integrated into the cable. This resistor is essential to limit current in case of accidental contact with a voltage source, ensuring operator safety.
  • Length: Usually long enough for convenient connection (e.g., 1.5 - 2 meters).
• Antistatic Wrist Strap:
  • Function: Allows the operator to be grounded, preventing the accumulation of electrostatic charges on the body that could discharge onto sensitive components.
  • Typical components:
    • An adjustable elastic band to wear on the wrist, containing conductive fibers in contact with the skin to ensure good electrical connection.
    • A coiled cable with a 10 mm snap connector compatible with one of the buttons on the mat.
    • A 1 Megaohm (±5%) safety resistor integrated into the cable, similar to that of the mat's grounding cable, for operator protection.
• Additional features (may vary by manufacturer):
  • Multiple connection points: The presence of 2 x 10 mm buttons offers greater flexibility for simultaneously connecting the grounding cable and the wrist strap, or for adding other compatible ESD accessories.
• ESD Certifications: The kit complies with international ESD standards such as IEC 61340-5-1.
• Ease of Use: The kit is generally designed to be easy to install and use.
