What bench height does the 201 suit?

The 201 is a bench-height chair. Its seat adjusts from 585mm to 835mm, which suits standing benches finishing around 900 mm high. If you’re not sure, send us your bench height and we’ll confirm the right model.

What is the weight capacity of the 201?

The 201 is fitted with a 20-stone gas strut, which is approximately 127 kg.

Is the 201 suitable for ESD workstations?

Yes. The 201 is a fully earthed anti-static (ESD) chair. Every part is anti-static: the seat and backrest are earthed to the chassis, which connects through the chromed gas lift to the polished aluminium base and to ground via conductive ESD castors or glides. It has Hi-Tech Fabric upholstery, a dissipative material, with a resistance to ground that does not exceed 10^10 ohms, tested with an OHM-STAT megohmmeter. It suits ESD workstations, electronics assembly and static-sensitive labs.

Can I have feet or castors on the 201?

The 201 comes with ESD feet as standard. ESD castors and glides are available for a price uplift. All options keep the chair’s anti-static path to ground intact; soft-tyre castors are recommended for hard or vinyl flooring.

What guarantee and delivery apply to the 201?

UK mainland delivery is included in the price. Delivery to the Scottish Highlands and Northern Ireland is quoted on request. Every chair comes with a 5-year guarantee against normal wear and tear from the date of delivery, used under normal conditions during a conventional working day. In a shift or 24/7 working environment the guarantee is 2 years from the date of delivery. Purchase orders accepted from schools, colleges, universities, NHS trusts, government organisations and registered businesses. VAT invoice supplied.

Description

The 201 is an ESD anti-static bench-height lab chair with a static-dissipative fabric seat, built for electronics assembly, test and repair benches around 900 mm where a standard chair would put components at risk. Purchased over 2,115 times to date.

An ESD chair is built with static-dissipative materials throughout, so the chair itself does not accumulate charge. It protects the workpiece alongside — not instead of — wrist straps, grounded surfaces and ESD flooring. Choose fabric where operators sit for long spells; where the seat must wipe clean, specify the vinyl-seat 301 instead. For seated ESD desks around 720–750 mm, the matching model is the desk-height 202. The lab chair height guide confirms the height class.

Seat material

Upholstered in static-dissipative ESD fabric — the comfortable option for full shifts at the bench. See the materials and colours page for the range.

Feet or castors

Supplied with feet as standard, which is usually right for a tall chair at a standing bench. Castors are available at a price uplift — specify soft-tyre for hard or vinyl flooring, and lock-off or lock-down castors where the chair must stay put. Consider the safety requirements of your working environment before choosing castors on a high chair.

Accessories

Available to order with a seat slide (adjusts seat depth for taller or shorter users), adjustable arms, ring arms (better where fixed arms would foul the bench), lumbar support or seat tilt. Priced individually — see the accessories page or ask on your quote.

Who uses the 201

Supplied to electronics and research benches at Toshiba, Honeywell and UK government defence research laboratories. The ESD range is also on benches at Dyson, BAE Systems and ST Microelectronics.

Ordering

Purchase orders accepted, VAT invoice supplied. Volume pricing from 4 units. Delivery included to mainland Britain. UK support and spares available — we have been supplying laboratory and technical seating since 1986.
