Abstract / scope
ISO 284:2003 specifies the maximum electrical resistance of a conveyor belt and the corresponding test method.
The test is intended to ensure that the belt is sufficiently conductive to avoid the accumulation of electrical static charge which may be developed during service use.
ISO 284:2003 is not suitable or applicable to light conveyor belts as described by EN 873, the static electrical properties of which are measured by EN 1637.
