Securing Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Protected Areas with EMIT SmartLog Pro® 2 and Alvarado EDM Waist High Turnstile

In today's technologically advanced world, electronic devices are becoming increasingly sensitive to electrostatic discharge, which can cause irreparable damage to their components. To safeguard sensitive electronic equipment and maintain the integrity of production processes, companies need to establish Electrostatic Discharge Protected Areas (EPAs). These EPAs are controlled environments where strict measures are taken to prevent electrostatic discharges.

One crucial aspect of maintaining an EPA is ensuring that operators entering the area adhere to ESD safety protocols. The SmartLog Pro® 2, developed by EMIT, is an innovative solution that verifies the functionality of an operator's wrist strap and footwear, logs the test record, and controls access to the ESD Protected Area. With its state-of-the-art features, the SmartLog Pro® 2 provides comprehensive protection against electrostatic discharges.

The SmartLog Pro®2 verifies the functionality of an operator’s wrist strap and footwear, logs the test record, and controls access to an ESD Protected Area. Access control to an ESD Protected Area can be further enforced by using the relay terminal on the SmartLog Pro® 2. It can be connected to an electronic door lock or turnstile to grant access only to those who have passed their pre-defined ESD tests.

The EMIT SmartLog Pro® 2 with Alvarado EDM Waist High Turnstile controls access to the ESD Protected Area to operators that have passed their pre-defined ESD tests and have been granted access to the area. Turnstile functionality and operator access may be managed using the SmartLog Pro® Manager Web App

Access Features:

  • Control access to the ESD Protected Area
  • Records operator access and ESD test results
  • Restrict access by department, shift, or specific notation

Key Turnstile Features:

  • Motorized arm rotation
  • Field configurable for single-direction or bi-directional operation
  • Configurable with pre-existing fire and safety systems

 

Moreover, the device maintains a log of all the ESD tests and access records, providing a detailed history of who entered the ESD Protected Area and their corresponding ESD test results. This logging system helps companies track compliance and identify any potential issues with operators' ESD protection practices.

One of the standout features of the SmartLog Pro® 2 is its integration with access control systems. Through the relay terminal on the device, companies can enhance access control to the ESD Protected Area. By connecting the SmartLog Pro® 2 to an electronic door lock or an Alvarado EDM Waist High Turnstile, access can be granted only to those operators who have successfully passed their pre-defined ESD tests. This stringent access control mechanism ensures that only qualified individuals with proper ESD protection are permitted entry.

The collaboration with Alvarado EDM Waist High Turnstile brings an additional layer of security to the EPA. The turnstile, integrated with the SmartLog Pro® 2, acts as a physical barrier, allowing entry only to authorized personnel. The turnstile features motorized arm rotation and can be configured for single-direction or bi-directional operation, depending on the EPA's needs.

To efficiently manage access and turnstile functionality, the SmartLog Pro® Manager Web App comes into play. This web application allows administrators to control access features, view operator access logs, and manage ESD test results. With the SmartLog Pro® Manager Web App, access can be restricted based on departments, shifts, or specific notations, offering flexible and customizable access control options.

 

In conclusion, the EMIT SmartLog Pro® 2 with Alvarado EDM Waist High Turnstile is a cutting-edge solution that ensures the integrity of ESD Protected Areas. By verifying operators' ESD protection equipment, maintaining comprehensive access logs, and integrating with advanced turnstile systems, companies can confidently protect their sensitive electronic equipment from potentially damaging electrostatic discharges. As technology continues to evolve, investing in reliable and sophisticated ESD protection solutions like the SmartLog Pro® 2 becomes a crucial aspect of modern-day operations.
