DESCO

DESCO is a brand specializing in electrostatic discharge (ESD) control equipment, serving industries where static-sensitive components are handled, assembled, or stored. The brand is widely recognized for its range of products designed to mitigate static electricity risks in manufacturing, electronics assembly, and laboratory environments. DESCO’s product families include static-eliminating air guns, overhead ionizers, static shielding bags, heel grounding straps, snap-connecting antistatic cords, and continuity testers. These items are built to meet common ESD control standards, such as those defined by ANSI/ESD S20.20, and are typically rated for use in cleanroom or controlled manufacturing settings. For example, the DESCO Viper Ion Gun operates at air pressures from 7 psi to 87 psi with a 13 cfm air consumption, making it suitable for bench or conveyor-line static removal. Overhead ionizers like the model 60640 provide broad-area ionization without integrated lighting, allowing integration into existing overhead fixtures. Static shielding bags, such as the 18 x 18 inch zip-seal bags with metal interior layers, offer Faraday cage protection for sensitive electronics during transport or storage. Heel grounding straps, available in green and blue with non-marring features, provide personnel grounding in ESD-protected areas. Antistatic cords, including coiled banana plug cords in 6-foot lengths with relaxed retraction, ensure reliable connection between wrist straps and grounding points. Continuity testers, like the model 35135, verify ground path integrity with audible alerts across a 0 to 50 ohm range. 3G Electric supplies DESCO products globally, supporting plant engineers, maintenance managers, and procurement specialists who require verifiable ESD control solutions. The brand’s focus on functional specifications—such as operating pressure ranges, bag dimensions, cord lengths, and tester resistance ranges—allows technical buyers to select equipment based on measurable parameters rather than marketing claims. DESCO’s product line is consistently designed for durability and repeatable performance in industrial environments, with items like the Viper Ion Gun including adapters for standard compressed air systems. 3G Electric’s inventory includes these and other DESCO items, enabling straightforward procurement for ESD program compliance.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about DESCO from 3G Electric.

What is the operating pressure range for the DESCO Viper Ion Gun?

The DESCO Viper Ion Gun (MPN 19595) operates at air pressures from 7 psi to 87 psi, with an air consumption of 13 cfm. It includes an adapter for standard compressed air connections and has an overall length of 1 inch. This range allows use in various bench or inline static elimination tasks.

Does the DESCO Overhead Ionizer model 60640 include overhead lights?

No, the DESCO Overhead Ionizer (MPN 60640) does not include overhead lights. It is designed as a standalone ionizer with dimensions of 22 3/8 inches overall depth, 4 inches overall height, and 6 5/8 inches overall width. It provides broad-area ionization without integrated lighting.

What closure type is used on DESCO static shielding bags?

DESCO static shielding bags, such as the 18 x 18 inch silver bag (MPN 13720), use a zip seal closure. The bag has a metal interior layer for Faraday cage protection and is sold in packs of 100. The closure type ensures secure sealing for stored components.

Are DESCO heel grounding straps available in different colors?

Yes, DESCO heel grounding straps are available in multiple colors. For example, the Foot Grounder (MPN 07599) is green with a stretch fastening, while another model (MPN 17252) is blue with hook and loop fastening. Both feature non-marring soles for use on ESD flooring.

What type of plug connection does the DESCO coil cord use?

DESCO coil cords are available with different plug connections. The model 91095 uses a right-angled banana plug, while model 09480 uses a straight banana plug. Both are 6-foot coiled cords with relaxed retraction and date coding for traceability.

What resistance range does the DESCO continuity tester measure?

The DESCO continuity tester (MPN 35135) measures resistance from 0 ohm to 50 ohm. It provides an audible alert for continuity verification and has no display. This tester is used to check ground path integrity in ESD control systems.
