Workstation Continuous Mini Monitor

Specifications

Workstation Continuous Mini Monitor is a Real
Time instrument that ensures that critical ESD generators in
a sensit

Leading companies use continuous monitors as a cost
effective component in satisfying the paragraph 6.1.3
Compliance Verification Plan requirements of ANSI/
ESD S20.20. The EMIT Jewel® Workstation Continuous
Mini Monitor continuously monitors the integrity of one
operator and an ESD protective work surface’s discharge
path to ground. The Monitor will provide virtually
instantaneous notification of static control equipment
failures, eliminating the need of periodic testing and costly
record keeping. This unit is highly cost effective as it is
designed to monitor any conventional single conductor wrist
strap and ground cord system. There are no additional
wires to connect and its small package makes it highly
suitable to install on a worksurface.
Continuous Monitors pay for themselves, improving quality,
productivity, and eliminating wrist strap daily testing
and test result logging. Per ESD-S1.1 paragraph 6.1.3
Frequency of Functional Testing, “The wrist strap system
should be tested daily to ensurer proper electrical value.
Daily testing may be omitted if constant monitoring is used.”
Per ESD Handbook TR20.20 paragraph 5.3.2.4.4, “Typical
test programs recommend that wrist straps that are used
daily should be tested daily. However, if the products that
are being produced are of such value that knowledge of a
continuous, reliable ground is needed, and then continuous
monioring should be considered or even required.”
