MicroCare MCC-ZAP StatZAP™ ESD Eliminator Tool

General Information

The StatZAP ESD Eliminator is a patented tool designed to dissipate the ESD charges created by all aerosol products. Important features of the StatZAP include:

Proven reduction of ESD voltages by 99%

Noncorrosive stainless steel construction for years of life

Chemistry-independent performance saves expensive solvent sprays

Easy-to-use and easy-to enforce ESD control at about one-tenth the price of competing technologies

Product Information

In aerosol sprays, friction is generated as liquids race through the plastic tubes of the spray can. This creates powerful electrostatic charges (ESD) of up to 12,000 volts; ESD voltages as low as 150 volts can cause ESD damage. The StatZAP ESD Eliminator continuously drains these charges, usually to lower than 50 volts, and dissipates them before they reach dangerous levels. It fits most MicroCare cans and many from other vendors as well.

The design is simple. The operator must be grounded via an approved ESD device, and a StatZAP must be attached to the aerosol spray. By maintaining direct contact with the StatZAP trigger, the user becomes part of the grounding circuit and ESD charges are carried away, through the user to ground. Technicians like the convenience of the StatZAP. The comfortable knurled grip and the
extra-long trigger activator minimize the potential for repetitive motion injuries. The angled tip can be rotated upward, making it easy to spray accurately. A unique safety feature is the removable ShockShield insulating sheath. It extends beyond the tip of the StatZAP and prevents the StatZAP from touching an energized circuit, which might harm the board or the operator.

An important feature is found at the tip of the StatZAP. The tapered shape of the “CoronaTip” generates an ionized triboelectric field that radiates as much as ten inches from the tip. This neutralizes ESD charges within that field. No other aerosol static control device uses this phenomenon to improve ESD control.
