Einleitung
Folge dieser Anleitung, um herauszufinden, wie man die faltbare Antistatik-Matte verwendet.
Antistatik-Matten dienen dazu, elektrostatischer Entladungen (ESD) bei der Reparatur von elektronischen Geräten zu verringern. Obwohl sie technisch nicht erforderlich sind, werden sie mit Antistatik-Armbändern kombiniert, um die Ladung zwischen deiner Hand und dem Gerät auszugleichen.
Mehr Informationen zu elektrostatischer Entladung (ESD) findest du hier.
Was du brauchst
-
In diesem Schritt verwendetes Werkzeug:Portable Anti-Static Mat$29.95
-
Falte deine Antistatik-Matte auseinander und breite sie auf deiner Arbeitsoberfläche aus.
-
-
-
Setze den Stecker des schwarzen Erdungsdrahtes auf einen der Erdungspunkte der Matte.
-
Drücke den Stecker herunter, bis er hörbar einrastet und so mit der Matte verbunden ist.
-
-
-
Befestige die Klemme des schwarzen Erdungsdrahtes an einer geerdeten Metalloberfläche.
How would I find a grounded surface? Where do I attach this to if I don't have a power supply? (i'm working on repairing a load of DS Lites)
Mr. Myers, To be safe get a cheap wall socket tester to make sure the socket is grounded.
Then you can take a nail and put it in the alligator clip of the antistatic pad. Then push the nail into the grounded part of a three hole socket in your house. Not the top two slit holes but the round hole at the bottom.
Okay so what do I do in Germany then? I didnt know I need to spend extra 20€ to get an adapter and I also dont know how to test if something is earthed or not. I want to use mat for PC maintainance. As it's a selfbuilt and I was crafting it without a mat. I mean I was very cautious but I dont wanna risk ruining it. So I bought this mat for maintainance and now have to realize it's sadly utterly useless without spending more money. Seems a bit disappointing to me, especially since ifixit offer no proper explanation on how to earth the mat, they dont even send a User manual, so I even had to Google for a while to find out I need an adapter for this.

In diesem Schritt verwendetes Werkzeug:Anti-Static Wrist Strap$7.95
-
Bevor du dein Antistatik-Band anlegst, entferne allen Schmuck von deinem Handgelenk und deinen Fingern.
-
-
-
-
Ziehe am Schlaufenende des Armbands, um den Kunststoffverschluß zu lösen.
-
-
-
Um das Armband enger zu stellen, ziehe das Schlaufenende vom Kunststoffschieber weg.
-
-
-
Um das Armband lockerer einzustellen, ziehe den Riemen vom Kunststoffschieber weg.
-
-
-
Löse die Metallklammer des Armbands vom restlichen blauen Erdungsdraht ab.
-
-
-
Setze die Spitze des blauen Erdungsdrahtes in einen der Anschlüsse des schwarzen Erdungsdrahtes.

What else can the mat be grounded to, as I don't have a metal desk.
Hi there.
Technically, you can ground yourself to any large, metal object that is touching the ground. If you don't have any in your vicinity, then you can clip the wire to the middle screw in your outlet or plug the wire into the bottom-most ground slot in the outlet.
What can it be grounded to if I don't have a metal desk and am in Europe? There is no middle screw or ground slot, at least where I live.
Double check your outlets, it's possible that a ground adapter plug like the following one will work for you.

If you don't have any grounded outlets in your home, you might consider connecting your mat to a nearby radiator (assuming that your plumbing is metal).
I just purchased a couple of these anti-static mats from China. I put a multimeter lead on the surface of the mat and the other lead to the grounding snap on the mat. There is infinite resistance on the multimeter. The same thing happens when I measure the resistance of the surface of the mat a couple of inches apart. I thought the mat should be conducting electricity? I measured the resistance between the large grounding snap and the wrist grounding snap and it is approximately 1.3 mega ohm. BTW, I assume the grounding snaps are on the top of the mat when positioned on the desk, correct? When the snap-on nodes are facing up, the bottom of the mat is a black fabric and the top surface of the mat is a gray rubber-like plastic, that smells really bad like that of a new plastic shower curtain. Remember those? I had to air them outside when I got them.
Any comments?
TIA
Hello! Yes, the mat should be slightly conductive. This prevents static from building up on the surface and allows any residue to dissipate in a very slow and controlled manner. The mat is rated for a surface resistivity of 10^7 - 10^9 Ω (10 megaohms to gigaohms), which may be out of range for handheld multimeters. Likewise, the resistance between the mat and a snap would equally high. This prevents uncontrolled static discharge from the mat to a ground point.
You do have the mat oriented correctly. The blue surface should be facing up. I think the material is vinyl based, so it has that smell. The material composition gives it the static dissipating property.
