You would have to check with supplier, or verify it yourself; but though the coating is insulating when cured it may well not be uncured in liquid form. Regards Mike -----Original Message----- From: TechNet [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Douglas Pauls Sent: Tuesday, September 13, 2011 4:53 PM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: [TN] Pneumatic Syringes and ESD Good morning all, Time for a silly question. The question has been raised internally as to the risk of ESD generation when an acrylic conformal coating (an insulative material) is applied using pneumatic syringes (also an insulative material), through a nylon brush (a third synthetic material). 1. Do you know of any studies done benchmarking static generation levels? We have done some here, but want to do a sanity check. 2. If you have such devices in your facilities, what are your mitigation efforts? Air ionizers, grounded tubes? 3. Does anyone use, and can recommend, ESD safe syringe bodies and caps? Many thanks in advance. Doug Pauls Rockwell Collins ______________________________________________________________________ This email has been scanned by the MessageLabs Email Security System.
