Grounding Mats
Dry air means static electricity, which can damage sensitive gear. Touching a grounded mat first safely discharges you before you touch your equipment.
Why You Need a Grounding Mat
Static Builds Up Fast
A sudden discharge can be anywhere from a few hundred to tens of thousands of volts.
Some Components Are Extremely Sensitive
Some computer components are sensitive to just 10 volts. You typically won't feel a shock unless it's greater than 3,000 volts, and you can hear the arc above 5,000 volts.
Don't Assume You're Protected
Though electronic equipment should have internal protection, it is never good to assume that it does, that it is optimally grounded, or that the protection is not yet near the end of its life.
Directions:
1. Remove the protective film from the bottom of the pad
2. Plug the mat into a confirmed properly grounded receptacle
3. Simply touch your AVRS Grounding Mat before touching your
equipment.
4. The mat can be trimmed to fit with scissors if needed.
Description:
4”x6” mat with 12’ cord and three-prong U.S. plug, 6 oz. Made in USA.
Simply touching the grounded mat will dissipate any electro-static charge build-up to equalize the potential to ground.
