Euro ESD Pallet 120x80x15cm, on 3 skids

ESD pallets in Euro size from NORAH Plastics made of electrically conductive plastic have been specially developed for the safe storage and transport of sensitive electronic components. They prevent electrostatic charging and divert already existing charges. Special passage resistance and surface resistance: 10³ < 10¹⁰ Ohm/cm “Electrostatic discharge” is a very important aspect of the transport and storage of sensitive electronic components. This is why ESD products like ESD pallets are made of a special plastic to which conductive carbon fibres are added during production. This conductivity prevents charges from being created by friction and impedes the development of charges during the transport and storage of electronic components. The carbon fibres used in the ESD products are the source of their black colour. ESD is an abbreviation from English and means "electrostatic discharge", which loosely translated means "protection against electrostatic discharge". What is behind electrostatic discharge can be explained with an everyday example: You put a sweater on your head and your hair stands on end. The reason for this lies in frictional electricity, which often leads to an unexpected charge and then ends in an unpleasant discharge in the form of a small electric shock. We are not only confronted with this problem in everyday life - electrostatic charging is also a major issue when storing and transporting industrial goods. A spark that occurs can trigger a short but high electrical voltage pulse on electronic equipment, which in turn can cause damage to that equipment. To avoid this scenario, it is recommended to store and transport ESD-sensitive components and assemblies in ESD-protected environments throughout all processes.
