Model 406D Static Decay Meter - 46D Static Decay Meter

Description- Materials used in static sensitive applications such as electronic component handling and packaging, cleanrooms, hospitals and hazardous locations must dissipate static charge in a rapid and safe manner.

The 406D Static Decay Meter meets the requirements for static charge dissipation testing as required by DOD, NFPA, ESDA and EIA test specs . A wide variety of electrode configurations are available which enable the static dissipative characteristics of film, flat plaques, IC carriers, tote boxes, garments, tabletop and flooring material and storage systems to be evaluated.

The system may be used in both development and QC applications to test material where static electricity can effect production, handling, performance or appearance.

Model 431 Shielded Bag Test System -

431 Shielding Bag TesterDescription- The Model 431 Shielded Bag Test System is designed to perform ESD STM11.31 and EIA-541 tests when used in conjunction with a high speed oscilloscope and computer. The system provides the discharge pulse and the resulting attenuated voltage output for direct connection to a 2-channel oscilloscope for EIA-541 testing, or a current pulse for the ESD STM11.31 test.

The Model 431 consists of an adjustable 800 to 1200 Volt power supply with a 3½ -digit LCD display, 100 pf/ 1500 Ohm HBM network (200 pf/1500 Ohm for EIA-541), a mercury wetted charge/ discharge relay, capacitive sensor and a controlled force discharge electrode. Adjustable bag insertion stops enable the user to configure the System for different bag sizes per specification. A Tektronix CT-1 current sensor with 500 Ohm resistor, and built-in 100:1 voltage attenuators are standard for interfacing the System with an appropriate user supplied oscilloscope. (50 MHz, 100 MS/s for EIA-541; 200 MHz, 1GS/s with computer interface for ESD STM11.31.)

Multicolored LED point sources indicate CHARGE,
DISCHARGE and TEST OVER functions. The FUNCTION
switch is used to select either a voltage differential
(EIA-541) or a current pulse (ESD S11.31) measurement.
The discharge is initiated by either a front panel discharge
switch or by a foot operated switch which is convenient
when testing in a humidity chamber.

A computer interface enables the discharge sequence specified in ESD STM11.31 to be automatically controlled by the ETS Test Suite Manager Program. The discharge of the Model 431 meets the requirements of ESD S5.1 “Electrostatic Discharge Sensitivity Testing-Human Body Model.” Plug-in R/C components allows other networks to be used. Cables are provided for interfacing the Model 431, oscilloscopes and computer parallel port.

The Test Suite Manager Program displays the waveforms, calculates the energy of the discharge pulse induced inside the test bag and processes the data in accordance with ESD STM 11.31. It also automatically controls the Model 431 and program the oscilloscope.

*  Performs energy tests per ESD S11.31
*  Performs voltage tests per EIA-541 & MIL-PRF-81705D
*  Voltage adjust: 800 to 1200V
*  3½ digit LCD voltage readout
*  Oscilloscope interface outputs
*  110/220 Volt operation
*  Energy calculation program
