Heel and toe grounders |
Shoe grounding straps provide dissipation of static charges for mobile
personnel in such areas as wave soldering, kitting and QC. These reusable straps
provide a continuous ground path between shoes and static-protected floors. A
conductive rubber strap fits over the heel or toe and conductive nylon strap
makes contact with the operator's body. Straps will no stick to shoes and
feature a stretchy, adjustable band that guarantees a comfortable, secure fit
for all day long. All models have build-in 1 Mohm resistor for added protection.
| Foot grounders discharge static from a person to ground by connecting
the person to a grounded walking surface. A conductive ribbon placed
inside the wearer’s shoe or sock makes electrical contact with the skin
through perspiration. The ribbon is joined to a resistor which limits
current should accidental exposure to electricity occur. The other end of
the resistor is joined to a conductive sole. This sole contacts a grounded
ESD floor mat or ESD flooring system. Foot grounders must be worn on both
feet to maintain ground contact while walking. |
