ESD workstation

What is an ESD zone and why is it important?

When working with sensitive electronics, protection against electrostatic discharge (ESD) is crucial. A properly designed ESD work environment minimizes the generation of static charges, protects components from damage, and at the same time ensures ergonomics and employee safety. It is applied in industrial halls, laboratories, as well as in testing and repair stations.

Basic ESD zone equipment includes:

• ESD workbenches – ideally height-adjustable, with an antistatic surface
• ESD chairs – ergonomic, with conductive elements that dissipate charge
• ESD racks and trolleys – for safe handling and storage of components
• Supplementary antistatic equipment – mats, wrist straps, and accessories

ESD workbenches
Antistatic tables are the foundation of any ESD workstation.
When choosing, consider:

• Dimensions of the ESD worktop – adjust width and depth to specific needs
• Table height – an electrically height-adjustable model is ideal
• Accessories – containers, shelves, monitor holders, LED lighting, or extensions

The work surface is designed to reliably protect sensitive components in compliance with standards (e.g., ČSN EN 61340-5-1).

ESD Chairs

Antistatic chairs provide ergonomic seating while preventing the buildup of static charge. Any charge that arises is safely dissipated, thereby eliminating the risk of damage to electronic components.

ESD Racks and Trolleys

Antistatic racks and trolleys facilitate material organization and handling. Their advantages include modular design, customizable dimensions, adjustable number of shelves, and various wheel options.
