Our range of ESD & anti-static products help eliminate risk to electronics manufacturing processes

  • 8 May 2017

We understand how critical controlling contamination is to an electronics manufacturer’s success and the risks to electronic and nanotechnology components from static charges and UV exposure.  Our range of bespoke modular cleanrooms can be constructed using antistatic components that can help ground static electricity, protecting sensitive products from the damage these charges cause.

When it comes to sensitive advanced electronics, you cannot risk any particulate contamination.  The ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) Association estimates that 25% of all electronics damaged for unknown reasons can be attributed to ESD and the cost of damage to the Electronics industry to be $5 billion (USD) per year.

Dust attraction starts as low as around 1000 volts.  Charges of this size are comparatively small and very easily generated, yet at this level static can attract airborne contamination from considerable distances.

Component manufacturers will be aware of the importance of keeping charges well below this level, due to the significant damage it can cause; however in electronic assembly, repair or cleaning applications it is sometimes overlooked.

Many electronic assembly or cleaning processes such as automatic web or manual cleaning have the ability to generate charges well in excess of this number, and in only a few seconds.  By removing the charge you will reduce the contamination risk and help later cleaning processes to become more effective.

At Cleanroomshop.com we supply a range of anti-static and ESD cleanroom apparel, cleaning supplies and furniture, which can monitor and eliminate static within your critically controlled environment.

Antistatic clothing is the most effective way to protect your electronic circuits. ESD Clothing including coveralls, lab coats and footwear eliminates electric charge as well as ensuring the highest standard of particle control, offering your employees both comfort and protection.

Static meters are an effective product for identifying static problems within your processes and the inclusion of the ionising bars can help eliminate the issues identified.

Designed primarily with the electronics industry in mind, the wide variety of high and low ESD chairs suit a range of applications and will ensure your employees comfort over long periods of time within your critical environment.

Anti-static sprays prevent charge generation and other static related problems, with cleaning accessories, such as bin liners being ideal for static sensitive areas where electrostatic contamination can be a problem.

Come and see us!

We are exhibiting at What’s new in Electronics on 9 and 10 May at the NEC.  Come and see us in Hall 8, Stand C20 to discuss your Modular Cleanroom requirements.  For further details on all the exhibitions we are attending in 2017, see our events page.
