Individual control cabinets with ESD coating (electrostatic discharge)

Never repaint or coat afterwards again - order the dissipative coating directly

Put an end to complex processes for control cabinet housings. With the SAAS solution ARMARiO you have the unique opportunity to configure and order individual control cabinets directly online with ESD coating from batch size 1. Save yourself the time-consuming and expensive processes of dismantling, stripping and re-coating or painting and at the same time protect the environment.

Individual control cabinets with ESD coating

It doesn't matter whether you need 1, 2 or 10 control cabinets with ESD coating. You design your optimal housing and we produce it correctly right from the start and, if desired, with a dissipative coating. You will never again need to recoat standard housings with the associated assembly and logistics processes and the significant environmental impact. With the digital solution ARMARiO you will no longer have any problems or delays in your projects.

What does ESD actually mean?

ESD (Electro Static Discharge) describes the equalization of electrical charges between two objects until electrical equilibrium is restored. This discharge often occurs in a fraction of a second, often in the form of a spark (arc). This is exactly what the ESD coating is supposed to prevent. Anyone who deals with electronic components, whether packaging, assembling circuit boards or wherever, knows how damaging such potential discharge can be.

What makes a coating an ESD coating?

Surface resistance is the measured resistance between two points defined on a coated surface. The measurement is based on DIN EN 61340-2-3: “Test method for determining the resistance and specific resistance of solid and flat materials that are used to avoid electrostatic charging”. A coating is considered conductive if a surface resistance of >7.5x105_ Ohm and <1x109_ Ohm is measured using a measurement method defined in the standard. Accordingly, values ​​lower than 104 ohms are described as conductive, while surface resistances greater than 1014 ohms are defined as electrically insulating.

Why do we actually need ESD coatings?

The main purpose of electrically dissipative powder coatings is to prevent electrostatic charges and the resulting flashovers and rapid discharges. Apart from irritation or health problems caused by discharges through one's own body, large losses occur in the industrial sector due to electrostatic processes due to the destruction of, for example, electronic components during production.
