Electrostatic charges are undesirable in many processes, and in other areas they are specifically used to achieve certain effects. With the mobile electrostatic measuring device, existing charges can be measured on any material. Many plastics are not electrically conductive and can charge up to tens of thousands of volts until discharged. The compact field meter enables the measurement of positive and negative electrostatic charges on surfaces up to a voltage of 60 kilovolts. In production and packaging areas, unintended sudden discharges can cause damage to sensitive components or negatively affect processes. Here, the electrostatic measuring device can be used to quickly and easily measure the existing electrostatic charges. The effectiveness of protective measures on production plants or in special ESD areas can also be controlled at any time with the easy-to-use field meter.This text is machine translated.
