287-7391

The RS PRO ESD Grounding Cord, part number 287-7391, is a vital component for maintaining electrostatic discharge (ESD) control in sensitive environments. This coiled cord, measuring 3.6 meters in length, is colored bright yellow for high visibility, allowing supervisors to easily confirm its use.

Designed to safely direct static electricity to the ground, this cord protects both workers and equipment from potential damage during the use, manufacturing, assembly, or repair of sensitive electronic components. It features a durable polyurethane construction with rapid retraction strength and high memory, minimizing cord drag on the work surface while ensuring it does not interfere with movement. The improved snap design provides stronger strain relief and retention for long life, with a low profile to prevent accidental disconnection.

This grounding cord includes an integral resistor, available in 1MΩ, 2MΩ, or 4MΩ options, to manage static discharge safely. It supports ESD S20.20 and EN 61340-5-1 ESD control program compliance. Always remember to test the ground before use, maintain a clean room environment, and test wrist straps while worn. Each workstation must be individually grounded to the ground bus or nearest equipment ground.
