It is crucial to have flooring that protects components from Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) damage. ESD refers to the flow of electricity between two objects, which can occur due to friction or contact with a charged object.
The purpose of ESD flooring is to dissipate static electricity to the ground. This prevents the buildup of electricity on people or objects reducing the risk of it discharging onto components. ESD safe flooring is commonly made from materials like vinyl, rubber or tile which have properties.
There are advantages in using ESD flooring;
ESD safe flooring plays a role within an ESD control program. Other elements that may be part of such a program include wearing ESD wrist straps and smocks as utilizing ESD workbenches.
In Electronics / Semiconductor Manufacturing, Testing and Design facilities,
Static Electricity and its discharge cause damage worth Billions of Dollars every year to Electronics components and semiconductor devices. This makes control of the Static Electricity and its effects extremely important for safeguarding sensitive Electronics Devices. Semiconductors are especially sensitive to even tiny Static Discharges and need utmost Static Control procedures.
Static-Control Floors create a traceable electrical pathway from the walking surface to ground.
Thus, preventing the charge build-up on a standing/walking and causing ESD damage to sensitive devices operator to discharge.
ESD safe flooring needs to be tested at site after installation for STG, PTP & combination resistance measurements , Body Voltage Generation and Static Decay using calibrated instruments which meet the requirement of the applicable ESD Standard/ test method.
The test should be conducted by an iNARTE, USA qualified, Certified ESD Control Engineer in the presence of client and a certificate issued according to the international standards such as ANSI S2020-2014 or IEC 61340-5-1 or any other applicable standards, if the readings are found to be compliant to the selected standard.
