Wrist Strap Tester

Product Description

 Wrist Strap Tester

 Wrist Straps are the first line of defence against  electrostatic charges build up on the human body. They are designed to carry away this charge as soon as it is generated. At the same time the strap must remain electrically safe for the user. Thus, it is important to test every strap regularly.

In order to protect sensitive electronic components the maximum strap resistance should not be more than 10 meg ohms. On the other hand, the path to ground should have atleast 750 kiloohm resistance, as protection to the wearer from dangerous voltages and levels of current flow.

 The wrist strap tester  checks  these  parameters  under  actual operating  conditions  with  the  strap  on  the wrist. It clearly indicates whether  or  not the resistance of the strap system including the wearer falls within acceptable limits.
