SCS Metal-In shielding bag, heat-sealable, 305 x 405 mm - Desco 1001216

This shielding bag in 305 x 405 mm protects large circuit boards and populated assemblies against electrostatic discharge and external electric fields during transport and storage. In the Metal-In version the aluminium layer sits inside the PET/ALU/PE laminate, where it is protected against abrasion during handling. Once filled, the opening is closed permanently with a heat sealer.

Benefits

• Shielding to EN 61340-5-1 and ANSI/ESD S11.31 for sensitive components outside the EPA
• Heat-sealable: a tight, permanent closure for shipping and long-term storage
• Transparent despite metallisation, contents, labels and accompanying documents stay visible without opening
• Surface resistance 1 x 10E4 to 1 x 10E9 Ohm inside and outside, both sides dissipate charges in a controlled way
• Printed ESD warning symbol marks the bag as ESD packaging

Applications

The 305 x 405 mm format takes large circuit boards, motherboards and control boards, including those with a cable harness or heat sink attached. Typical uses are shipping to customers, interim storage between assembly and final integration, and returns for repair. The range is also available in other sizes.
