Igus energy chains meet new ATEX requirement with respect to
electrostatic discharge
Igus' E-Chain material, developed for electrostatic discharge (ESD)
applications, has been approved under the new ATEX regulations for use in
hazardous areas. Used for the dynamic guidance of cables and hoses with
defined bending radii and travel parameters, the ES chains are inherently
and permanently conductive, and allow for the controlled discharge of
electrostatic charges.
