ESD safety low shoe FLASH 2000 S1, mesh upper, width 10, black/grey - Atlas 44600

The FLASH 2000 is the entry point into the FLASH series for ESD workplaces in dry indoor areas. It dissipates the wearer's charge below 100 MOhm to DIN EN 61340-5-1, protects the toes with the alu-tec aluminium cap against 200 joules of impact energy and stays light thanks to aluminium and mesh.

Why this model

• Personnel grounding in the EPA, backed by the standard. As an ESD shoe it guarantees a person, shoe and floor resistance below 100 MOhm to DIN EN 61340-5-1. That is exactly the element an EPA concept to DIN EN 61340-5-1 expects from footwear.
• 200 joule toe protection at low weight. The anatomically shaped alu-tec aluminium toe cap withstands 200 joules of impact energy and 15 kN of compression to EN ISO 20345. Aluminium weighs less than steel, moves the centre of gravity towards the middle of the foot and creates no cold bridge inside the shoe.
• Safety class S1 in plain words. Closed heel area, antistatic properties and energy absorption in the heel, on top of the 200 joule toe cap. Antistatic means a through resistance between 0.1 and 1000 MOhm to EN ISO 20345. The lower limit also caps the risk of current passing through the body during work up to 230 volts.
• Cushioning built for an eight hour shift. The MPU INNOFLEX system guides the load along the natural line of force from heel to toe. The CLOUDZONE in the heel and the large MPU tread areas absorb energy and return it into the next step. Anyone who stands and walks all day notices the difference by the evening.
• Foot climate across the full shift. The mesh upper is air permeable, the aktiv-X functional lining regulates moisture, does not stain and resists abrasion. The clima-stream concept keeps the temperature inside the shoe close to the 32 °C at which the foot tires least.
• Width 10, cut wider than usual. Atlas builds even the standard width 10 on a broad, foot-friendly last. For wearers who need more volume the multi-width system offers the same model in width 12.

Areas of use

The shoe is designed for dry indoor areas. Typical places of use are electronics manufacturing and EPA workstations, PCB assembly and rework, test bays and measuring labs, assembly and final inspection as well as order picking and dispatch. For permanently wet areas or floors with penetration risk, choose a higher safety class.

Standards and conformity
