The working principle of different types of anti-static wrist straps

Anti-static wrist strapIt is a very common anti-static product, but with the development of technology, there are many different types of anti-static wristbands. For example, there are some types of work that often move around. What such workers need is a wireless anti-static wrist strap, and some fixed positions that often sit for a long time use a wired anti-static wrist strap. The editor below will share with you Let’s take a look at how these two wrist straps work.

Anti-static wrist straps are mostly used with wires. This kind of wrist strap is connected to the ground through a grounding wire to guide the static electricity in the body to the ground to release. Another wireless wrist strap has two methods of releasing static electricity. One is to consume a part of static electricity through the principle of corona discharge. When the wrist strap encounters current, it will discharge into the air to consume static electricity. However, this method requires relatively high voltage and is generally not suitable for the electronics industry. Usually, the wireless wrist straps we see are equipped with power-consuming materials inside the anti-static wrist strap, and the static electricity is consumed by the power-consuming materials, so that the harm caused by static electricity can also be avoided.

In fact, although the anti-static wrist strap is very effective, we still need to pay careful attention to safety and improve our own safety awareness. When using the wrist strap, check whether the contact is good, and it is necessary to regularly apply the anti-static wrist strap. Test by itself to see if it still has the function of conducting static electricity.
