This is where ESD Control Systems\u2019 products and solutions come into play offering hazard monitoring and prevention. The hazard situations include environments where flammable gases or liquids are present. Generation of electrostatic discharge (sparks) could ignite the flammable gases or liquids, causing instant fires or explosions that are fatal. Oftentimes, these cannot be diagnosed or root caused effectively due to wide scale destructions these explosions may cause. Understanding Static electricity and circumstances when and how it is generated is crucial to designing safety measures to prevent such catastrophic incidents. The challenge for quality and safety organizations across industries is awareness about impacts of Static electricity and how to contain it. ESD Control Systems has pioneered this area for over several decades to provide need based (custom) instrumentation and solutions to a variety of industries and applications.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>BLOGS Latest Blogs Static Electricity as Ignition source for Flammable Liquids and Gases What is Static Electricity?
