Premium LCD Digital Static Locator
Part Number: ELSL3P
If you have been looking for an accurate digital field meter that features an optical distance indicator, our digital static locator is the ideal solution. Featuring a HOLD setting, this field meter ensures that you don’t lose a reading in hard to see locations. Carry case included. 9-Volt battery not included.
NEW 2021 Version!
Overview
The Static Meter is an invaluable tool in investigating industrial static electricity problems. It is
used throughout production and quality control. It helps the operator to analyse the problem scientifically. For example:
- Find out how much static is present?
- Establish standards of acceptability for static levels in processes.
- Reject material if it is too static generative.
- To see where and how the static is being generated.
- To see if static eliminators are effective and if they are in the best position.
Typical static levels:
- 1000V – active dust attraction begins
- 3000V – attraction of light materials e.g. 20µ film
- 6000V – attraction of heavier film and papers & hairs on back of hand move danger level in many hazardous areas
- 1000V – film wraps around rollers in coating & gravure printing etc. and severe dust attractionThe locator measures the surface voltage in V or kV. A common question is “What is the relationship between surface voltage and field strength?” The relationship is:
Surface voltage in V = field strength in V/meter x distance from object in meters
Range:
The locator has two ranges which are selected automatically:
• Up to ±20kV the resolution is 10V
• From ±20kV to ±200kV the resolution is 100V.
