Profiled foam pink dissipative 10E7 to 10E11 ohm, 20 mm high, insert 05-TVS

A carton on its own does not make ESD-compliant packaging, what matters is the material touching the component. This profiled foam sits in the dissipative range at approximately 10E7 to 10E11 ohm and drains charges slowly instead of releasing them abruptly or storing them like an insulator.

Benefits

• Dissipative setting of approximately 10E7 to 10E11 ohm, suitable for direct contact with the packed goods inside the EPA.
• No insulating standard foam against the component, the packaging becomes part of the ESD protection chain rather than a gap in it.
• Height of 20 mm for the Cortronic 05-TVS shipping box with its 100 x 55 mm format.
• The nub structure fixes components of differing heights without additional filling material.
• Pink as the established colour code for antistatic foam, which simplifies checks at the packing station.
• Own weight 0.1 kg per insert.

Application

The insert is used wherever electrostatic sensitive devices leave the EPA and the packaging has to be demonstrably ESD compliant. It complements shielding bags and conductive cartons as the inner cushioning layer. During internal transport it takes on the same task between assembly, test and store.
