FR2117 ESD Mouse

ESD Mouse – Description

An ESD Mouse is a specialized computer mouse designed for use in electrostatic discharge-sensitive (ESD) environments, such as electronics manufacturing, cleanrooms, laboratories, and semiconductor facilities. It is made from static-dissipative materials to prevent the buildup and discharge of static electricity, which can harm sensitive electronic components.

Key Features

• ESD-safe housing: Constructed from conductive or static-dissipative plastic, with surface resistivity typically in the range of 10⁶–10⁹ ohms

• USB or PS/2 interface: Compatible with standard computer systems

• Optical or laser tracking: For precision and smooth movement

• Ergonomic design: For comfortable long-term use

• Available in wired or wireless (shielded) versions

• Optional sealed and washable designs for cleanroom use (often IP-rated)

Common Applications

• Workstations in ESD-protected areas (EPAs)

• SMT lines, PCB assembly, and semiconductor fabrication

• Cleanroom computer terminals (typically ISO Class 5–8)

• Medical device and biotech manufacturing

• Use alongside ESD-safe keyboards and monitors

Benefits

• Protects sensitive electronics from static discharge

• Ensures compliance with ANSI/ESD S20.20 and IEC 61340-5-1

• Improves operational safety and reliability in static-controlled environments

• Durable and designed for industrial or laboratory use

• Often resistant to chemicals and easy to clean (for cleanroom-grade models)
