Description
An Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Meter is a device used to measure static electricity, which is the build-up of electrical charges on the surface of materials. Static electricity can be problematic in environments where sensitive electronic equipment is used, as even a small electrostatic discharge can damage components. Such electrostatic charges can be found with the radioactivity meter. The radioactivity meter is therefore used for checking in ESD-protected production workshops. The measuring range of the radioactivity is ±60 kV DC.
The ESD meter is typically used in industries like electronics manufacturing, where controlling static electricity is crucial. The meter helps monitor and ensure that static charges are kept at safe levels, preventing damage to sensitive devices. It works by measuring the voltage of static charges in the air or on surfaces and can often be used to test the effectiveness of ESD precautions like wrist straps, mats, and clothing.
In addition to measuring radiation, the radioactivity meter can measure ambient temperature and humidity at the same time. For mobile use, the radioactivity meter is operated with a 9 V block battery. The operating time for the radioactivity meter is a maximum of 20 hours. The current battery charge is displayed by the ESD meter via the battery status indicator.
