Dual-Wire Static Control Smocks

The SCS groundable static control garment system offers hands-free hip to cuff grounding. The SCS dual-wire static control smock creates a Faraday cage around the torso and arms of the wearer and protects ESD susceptible items from the electrostatic fields generated by the wearer’s clothing. One conductive cuff is electrically bonded to the dissipative garment and one snap stud at the hip. The second conductive cuff uses an isolated conductive path to bond to a second snap stud at the hip. The smock’s dual-wire circuit loop closes when its two conductive cuffs are bridged by the skin on the wearer’s wrists.

The SCS dual-wire static control smocks are constructed of a lightweight dissipative material which is made from texturized polyester and a minimum of 9% carbon nylon monofilament. The conductive nylon fibers are woven in a chain-link design throughout the material, providing continuous and consistent charge dissipation. All seams in the smocks are designed to maintain electrical continuity from panel to panel and from sleeve to sleeve in accordance with the ESD Association Garment Standard, ESD STM2.1. The magnetic dual-wire ground cord is not included with the SCS dual-wire static control smock, but may be purchased separately.
