FOOT GROUND, TOE, ADJUSTABLE
ITEM NO.
DESCRIPTION
Foot Ground, Toe w/1 megohm
Our UL listed foot grounders are rated at 250 VAC. It is not recommended to use them where exposure
to line voltages above 250 VAC is possible. Caution: The foot grounder is for ESD control. It will not
reduce or increase your risk of receiving electric shock when using or working on electrical equipment.
Note:
Two heel straps are recommended for reliable grounding and ESD
protection, providing ground when one foot is off the floor.
Operator is grounded when foot is in contact with grounded dissipative
or conductive flooring.
Desco recommends the use of foot ground tester item No. 19252,
19253, 98280/98273, or 98280/98254.
For additional information on the use and maintenance of foot grounders
please ask for Technical Bulletins TB-2020, TB-2040, TB-3000.
Item 17222 is UL listed.
Description:
The 17222 Toe Ground provides a continuous ground path between an
operator and a properly grounded ESD protected flooring. These toe
grounders are designed for use on standard shoes, including high heeled
shoes. They can be easily adjusted to fit most wearers. Desco’s toe grounders have a
lining that prevents carbon marks on shoes. Toe grounder model 17222 has a discrete
one megohm resistor built into the contact strip. The product has been tested to ESD
STM 97.2 - Floor Materials and Footwear Voltage Measurement in Combination with a
Person. It is a suitable ESD footwear component in Flooring - Footwear System when
used as the primary grounding method (<3.5 x 107 ohms per ESD STM 97.1 Floor
Materials and Footwear-Resistance Measurement in Combination with a Person.)
Components:
A. 0.060” thick, two-layer laminated rubber sole. Inner layer is insulative neoprene, and
outer black layer is conductive neoprene. Tear resistant nylon reinforced 4.3 oz.
inner scrim layer prevents the rubber from tearing.
B. 3/8” wide, 18” long blue nylon ribbon contains 8 electrically conductive carbon
suffused fibers, reversible, may be positioned on either side of foot.
C. 3/4” wide blue non-elastic hook material.
D. 3/4” wide blue stretch loop material, for quick and easy attachment to foot.
