ESD safety low shoe SL 84 blue 2.0 S2 SR, waterproof smooth leather, width 10, black/royal blue - Atlas 58200

In electronics production footwear has a say in whether an assembly passes final test. The SL 84 blue 2.0 drains the wearer's charge in a controlled way and stays below 100 megohms measured by the person-shoe-floor method of DIN EN 61340-5-1. ATLAS lists it under the current EN ISO 20345:2022 in class S2 with the additional requirement SR, and the upper is roughly 2 mm thick waterproof smooth leather. Standard width 10, EU 36 to 49.

What this model delivers on the floor

• The wearer's static charge drains in a controlled way through lining, sole and floor instead of discharging into a component. For its ESD models ATLAS states a resistance below 100 megohms, measured by the person-shoe-floor method of DIN EN 61340-5-1. The footwear standard EN ISO 20345 only requires antistatic shoes to sit between 100 kilohms and 1000 megohms, and that wide band is not enough for an EPA. In daily use the tighter figure means no assembly lost because someone walked from the test bench to the machine.
• S2 in plain words: everything from S1, so a closed heel area, an antistatic build and 20 joules of energy absorption in the heel, plus an upper tested for water penetration and water absorption. Since the 2022 edition the additional requirement SR stands for the passed slip test on ceramic tile with glycerine.
• The toe cap is aluminium rather than steel. The alu-tec cap passes the same EN ISO 20345 test at 200 joules of impact energy and 15 kN of compression, weighs noticeably less and moves the centre of gravity towards the middle of the foot, which makes trips caused by imbalance rarer. Aluminium behaves thermally neutral and forms no cold bridge inside the shoe.
• The upper is roughly 2 mm thick full-grain waterproof smooth leather from cowhide. It keeps the foot dry for hours, stays breathable and dimensionally stable and can simply be wiped down, which counts around flux or cutting fluid.
• Cushioning for eight hours on your feet. The MPU INNOFLEX outsole guides the force along the INNOFLEX LINE from heel to toe, and the MPU REBOUND SYSTEM takes the energy up in large tread areas and returns it into the next step. Behind it works the aktiv-X functional lining, which moves moisture away, does not stain and stays abrasion resistant.
• Width 10 is the ATLAS standard width and already cut wider than a common safety shoe last. It fits most of a workforce, which keeps procurement for a whole department simple. Anyone who needs more volume in the forefoot gets the same model as article 58212 in the extra wide width 12.

Technical data

Areas of use

Electronics production and test benches inside the EPA, assembly and maintenance, storage and order picking, workshop areas with moisture, flux or cutting fluid. Wherever dissipative footwear is mandatory and the upper is also expected to keep water out.

Standards and conformity

EN ISO 20345:2022, protection class S2 with the additional requirement SR. The 2022 edition replaced the former markings SRA, SRB and SRC. Slip resistance on tile with detergent has become a basic requirement, and SR denotes the additionally passed test on tile with glycerine. ESD compliant in the sense of DIN EN 61340-5-1, the standard for the electrostatic protected area, with a resistance below 100 megohms by the person-shoe-floor method. Personal protective equipment of risk category II under Regulation (EU) 2016/425, CE marked, the EU declaration of conformity is available from the manufacturer. Approved for orthopaedic insoles under DGUV rule 112-191, where the marking inside the shoe is what counts. The manufacturer is the ATLAS shoe factory in Dortmund.
