Portable tester for ESD wrist-straps

EEBCSTAT – Reliable and accurate single-range tester, very easy to use.
It checks the grounding system consisting of the ESD safe wrist-strap worn by the operator and the connection cable.
Modular system, extendable to full test station for ESD safe wrist-straps and footwear by adding the EEBCSTAT line support panel and footplate, available individually or in kit version.
The tester is supplied with calibration certificate. It is recommended to recalibrate the instrument on an annual basis.

Please note: For testing the wrist-strap, simply connect it to the meter. The configuration shown in the video (with the meter connected to the reference point placed on the support panel) is used for the footwear test.

Methods of use

Wearing the wristband, the operator connects it to the tester (with a Ø 4 mm banana plug or a Ø 10 mm button, depending on the equipment in use).
The test is performed by making finger contact and pressing the stainless steel button:

• A green light turns on for PASS (the resistance through wristband and cord is in the test range, from 750 kilo-Ohm up to 35 mega-Ohm)
• A red light turns on for HIGH FAIL (the resistance through wristband and cord is higher than 35 mega-Ohm) and an audible buzzer sounds
• A red light turns on for LOW FAIL (the resistance through wristband and cord is lower than 750 kilo-Ohm) and an audible buzzer sounds.
