Why are earthing straps used for ESD floor coverings?
Earthing straps electrically connect ESD floor coverings or earthing mats to the central earthing system of the EPA zone. Conductive copper strips are often used for this, which are attached under or to the mats in order to dissipate electrostatic voltages in a controlled manner.
What role do copper strips play in the earthing of ESD mats?
Copper strips ensure a conductive connection between the earthing mat and the earthing point. This ensures the conductivity of the floor surface and supports uniform earthing within the work area.
When are earthing straps used during installation?
Earthing straps are installed during the installation of ESD floor coverings or earthing mats. They are an important component of a standardised EPA flooring system in accordance with DIN EN 61340-5-1.
Why is professional earthing of floor mats important?
Without a correct earthing connection, electrostatic voltages cannot be reliably dissipated. This can impair the protective effect of ESD floor coverings or earthing mats within sensitive electronic areas.
