Functions The static field meter Statiron DZ4 is a portable static electrical potential meter with digital readout, for measuring the electrical potential of charged objects. When measuring fluctuating static electricity, you can temporarily hold an indicated value, and check maximum voltages in the MAX mode.
Safety Precautions This device is a precision electrical instrument. For the sake of safety, be sure to follow the instructions described in this manual. mark are precautions that must be followed in order to use the product safely. This device does not conform to explosion-proof specifications. Do not install it in locations where flammable gases or solvents are handled, such as painting booths etc.

Important Points About Taking Measurements Grounding If the user's body retains an electrical charge, or highly accurate measurements are required, ground the earth terminal of this device. Also, if the charged object is expected to have a large charge, be sure to ground the device to avoid breakdown due to discharge. Adjusting the Measurement Distance The strength of the electrical field of a charged object changes with the distance between the charged object and the sensor portion of the measuring instrument.
Preparation Insert the battery. Remove the battery case cover and insert a 9 volt dry cell battery. Replace the cover carefully, taking care to keep the battery leads clear of the cover. Connect the earth lead to the earth terminal, and reliably ground the earth lead.

Zero point adjust the meter. Point the sensor at a grounded object and press the 0ADJ button. NOTE Zero point adjustment is reset when you turn the meter off. If you want to measure a maximum potential, use the MAX mode.

Measuring Ion Balance By attaching the optional ion balance plate (sold separately) to the meter, you can measure ion balance (offset voltage). Turn the meter on. Press the POWER button for more than one second, until you hear a beep. Set the mode you want to use.

Point the ion balance plate at the measurement location. The potential on the ion balance is measured. NOTE If the display panel blinks "1", the charged voltage has exceeded the measurable range (over-range). If this occurs, stop measuring immediately, as this may cause damage to the meter.
Adjustment and Maintenance Rotating the Sensor Head You can rotate the sensor head of the meter. This enables you to easily take measurements in narrow locations etc. that were previously difficult to access. The sensor head rotates in 45° increments. When rotating the head, stop at angles where the sensor head clicks into place.
Troubleshooting If the device does not operate correctly, it may be the result of one of the following. The display panel is not active when the power is turned on. Cause 1 The battery has not been installed, or the positive and negative terminals have been connected the wrong way around.
