EPA Checklist
Is everything OK in your ESD zone?
The checklist ensures that all necessary protective measures are consistently adhered to.
It serves both quality assurance and product protection purposes and reduces the risk of costly errors and failures.
(available in German language)
When entering the EPA, the following points must be observed:
Put on personal ESD protective equipment: Wear ESD protective clothing and grounding wristbands or ankle straps correctly.
- Access control: Only trained personnel are permitted to enter the EPA. nbsp;
- Check ESD shoes: Regularly check the function of ESD shoes or overshoes with a tester.
- Do not bring unprotected items: Only EPA-approved materials may be brought into the area.
- Ensure grounding: Check the grounding connection before starting work.
- Behaviour in the EPA: Do not create friction, do not use plastic packaging or private electronic devices.
- nbsp;
Consistent use of the checklist significantly minimises the risk of ESD.
