NEON LIME HEEL GROUNDER, ONE MEGOHM
Note:
“ESD protective flooring, used with approved footwear, may be used as an alternative
to the wrist strap system for standing operations.” [ANSI/ESD S20.20 section 6.2.2.2
Personnel Grounding Guidance
“If the contact area between the bottom of the foot and the floor is not continuous,
charge generation may occur; especially when a person is walking. Heel straps must
be worn on both feet to minimize the amount of time that the body of the person is
isolated from ground while walking.” [ESD Handbook ESD TR20.20 section 5.2.3
Flooring-Footwear System]
“Compliance verification should be performed prior to each use (daily, shift change,
etc.). The accumulation of insulative materials may increase the foot grounder system
resistance. If foot grounders are worn outside the ESD protected area testing for
functionality before reentry to the ESD protected area should be considered.” [ESD
SP9.2 APPENDIX B - Foot Grounder Usage Guidance]
Desco recommends the use of footwear tester item No. 19252, 19276, or 19277.
For additional information on the use and maintenance of foot grounders please ask for
Technical Bulletins TB-2020, TB-2040, TB-3034.

Note: This product is not recommended for use on equipment with operating voltage exceeding 250 VAC.
CAUTION: The ESD Series is for electrostatic control. It will not reduce or increase your risk of receiving
electric shock when using or working on electrical equipment. Follow the same precautions you would use
without wrist straps, including:
• Make certain that equipment having a grounding type plug is properly grounded.
• Make certain that you are not in contact with grounded objects other than through the ESD Series.
