Packaging Tape with ESD Warning Symbol, Yellow, 48 mm x 66 m - Desco 242210

A carton holding sensitive assemblies should only be opened by a grounded operator at an ESD workstation. This yellow tape makes that clear the moment the box is sealed: it is printed black with the ESD susceptibility symbol to EN 61340-5-1 and the text "Attention - Observe precautions for handling Electrostatic Sensitive Devices". At 48 mm wide and 66 m long the roll fits standard hand-held packaging tape dispensers.

Key benefits

• Warns recipients and stores of ESD sensitive contents, symbol to EN 61340-5-1
• Seals and marks the outer carton in one step
• 48 mm wide, 66 m per roll, for common tape dispensers
• Self-adhesive PVC tape with acrylic adhesive
• Made in the United Kingdom

Applications

Sealing shipping cartons, outer packaging and bulk packs that contain ESD sensitive devices in ESD protective packaging. The tape itself is not dissipative and therefore does not belong in the EPA. Use an ESD tape for bags and packaging inside the EPA. The shade may vary slightly from roll to roll.

Standards

EN 61340-5-1 requires marking of ESD sensitive items and packaging to be defined in the ESD control program plan when the customer contract does not specify it. The tape provides suitable marking for the outer packaging.
