  2. Electrostatic discharge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrostatic_discharge

    For example, charged regions on the surfaces of styrofoam cups or bags can induce potential on nearby ESD sensitive components via electrostatic induction and an ESD event may occur if the component is touched with a metallic tool. ESD can also be caused by energetic charged particles impinging on an object. This causes increasing surface and ...

  3. Electrostatic-sensitive device - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrostatic-sensitive_device

    Symbol for an ESD protection device – EPA Alternate warning symbol Symbol of an ESD grounding point for all components. An electrostatic-sensitive device (often abbreviated ESD) is any component (primarily electrical) which can be damaged by common static charges which build up on people, tools, and other non-conductors or semiconductors. [1]

  4. Antistatic device - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antistatic_device

    An antistatic wrist strap, ESD wrist strap, or ground bracelet is an antistatic device used to safely ground a person working on very sensitive electronic equipment, to prevent the buildup of static electricity on their body, which can result in ESD.

  5. Electrostatic discharge materials - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrostatic_discharge...

    Conductive ESD bag with a network card inside ESD shoes. Electrostatic discharge materials (ESD materials) are plastics that reduce static electricity to protect against damage to electrostatic-sensitive devices (ESD) or to prevent the accidental ignition of flammable liquids or gases.

  6. Process plant shutdown systems - Wikipedia

    These systems may also be redefined in terms of ESD/EDP levels as: ESD level 1: In charge of general plant area shutdown, will also activate ESD level 2 if necessary. This level can only be activated from the main control room. ESD level 2: This level shuts down and isolates individual ESD zones and may activate if necessary EDP.

  7. IEC 61000-4-2 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEC_61000-4-2

    IEC 61000-4-2 is the International Electrotechnical Commission's immunity standard on electrostatic discharge (ESD). The publication is one of the basic EMC standards of the IEC 61000–4 series. The European equivalent of the standard is called EN 61000-4-2. The current version of the IEC standard is the second edition dated 2008-12-09. [1]

  8. ESD - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ESD

    ESD (gene), a human gene/enzyme; Electrostatic discharge, a sudden flow of electricity between two electrically charged objects; Electrostatic-sensitive device, any component which can be damaged by common static charges; Energy spectral density, a part of a function in statistical signal processing

  9. Shutdown valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shutdown_valve

    A shutdown valve (also referred to as SDV or emergency shutdown valve, ESV, ESD, or ESDV; or safety shutoff valve) is an actuated valve designed to stop the flow of a hazardous fluid upon the detection of a dangerous event. This provides protection against possible harm to people, equipment or the environment.
