Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Tester, Model ESD 3000

The ESD 3000 is a fully automated and programmable ESD simulator. It identifies which discharge module is installed and has a level selector button enabling the user to quickly scroll through and select the voltage from the levels appropriate to the standard and discharge mode. The set pulse count is executed with a single pull of the trigger in either air or direct contact mode. Polarity can be programmed to alternate or can be changed with the push of the +/- button at any time. Voltage can be programmed to ramp up or down or quickly changed at any time by using the up and down arrow buttons.

Main Features:

Very high accuracy and pulse repetition
High Quality / Rugged Design
Most Modular System Available
- Upgrade over time from 16kV to 30kV
- Each Modular Network contains all the high voltage components, allowing it to be independently calibrated and interchangeable between simulators
  - Comparative units have the discharge network tied to each gun and they cannot be interchanged and still hold a valid calibration.
  - Meets the most test standard with one system
Light Weight, Ergonomic Design
- Hold it once it easy to tell why we are preferred
- Well balanced
- Not tethered to a base unit located on the ground,
- Allows for easy mobility and quicker testing

Only rechargeable ESD simulator on the market that uses standard NiMH AA
- Can be powered from the wall with the AC adaptor/charger
- Runs > full day of constant use without recharging

Small housing for clear view of the test tip and test location
- No need to strain and look around the sides of a bulky simulator

Display is located on the gun and easy for you to see test parameters during test.

Easy to use (see the Demo Video)
- Set polarity and Voltage level very fast
- Or program test routines to count through test spots and pulses
- Software controllable (W/Optional TEMA)

Can count EITHER each full discharge or each triggered pulse.
- Keep track of how many pulses have been made, as a double check
