HOW THE StaticSure OPERATES
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The movement of flammable material generates static electricity. If not properly
controlled, this static can discharge in a hazardous location and cause an explosion
or fire. OSHA, NFPA, Canadian Fire safety codes, and many corporate safety policies
mandate the use of bonding and grounding to eliminate the build-up of static
charges when dealing with flammable or explosive gases, liquids and other materials.
The StaticSure product is an intrinsically safe device designed to help you comply
with safety regulations and maintain a safe working environment. When used with
proper bonding and grounding clamps and cables, StaticSure helps to ensure that
a static bond has been achieved prior to handling flammable materials.
WARNING: Substitution of components may impair intrinsic safety or proper operation
and performance of the device.
The device is self-powered and works by constantly measuring the resistance
between its end points to ensure that proper bonding is being achieved. The device
can be used to either provide the static electricity with a path to a known ground
point such as a ground bus, or to provide a bond between two objects that allows
the electrical potential to equalize, thus reducing the risk of static discharge between
the two objects.
To ensure that there is a proper bond, the StaticSure tests whether resistance in the
circuit is below the industry standard of 10 Ohms. At 10 Ohms or less, static electricity
can flow very easily to be dissipated or equalized. If the device senses that there is
greater than 10 Ohms of resistance, a red light will flash to warn that there is a potential
danger of static discharge. If everything is connected properly, no light will flash.
Note: This product does NOT test whether a ground has been achieved. It determines
whether a bond has been made between two items or between an item and
the known grounding point.
