Question The specifications for item 09120 which is a red colored wrist strap grounding cord states: "Only wrist straps incorporating a non-standard value shall use the color red on any portion of the wrist strap.” We are planning on purchasing this item but we need to know if it at least meets our 1 MegOhm requirement.

Thank you,
Answer

See Desco technical drawing 09210 and F showing that all cords include a one megohm current limiting resistor.

 

We added the note as the Ruby or red color cord Desco 09122 technically violates ANSI/ESD S1.1 section 5.9 which states “Only wrist straps incorporating a nonstandard [resistor] value shall use the color red on any portion of the wrist strap.”

 

The Jewel Saffire color Desco 09120 Coil Cord meets and exceeds the requirements of ANSI/ESD S20.20.
