Description
The Charleswater Combo Tester is a 3-state touch tester
designed for fast, frequent testing of ESD personnel
grounding devices. The Combo Tester incorporates a
unique dual test circuit design which improves accuracy of
testing and eliminates the need for separate wrist strap and
foot grounder test units. The
Kilohm - 35 Megohm circuit, ideal for testing of wrist straps
and footwear.
Test parameters are factory set but can be adjusted to
match your own specifications. The Combo Tester is
very simple to operate. A green light signals the user that
everything is OK. A red light and an audible indicator means
that the circuit resistance is either too low or too high.
The testers each include a 80020, which
converts the banana plug on the face of the
unit into a 10mm snap. NOTE: Once the
80020 has been put into the plug socket, it
cannot be removed.
The tester operates on either a 9 volt battery or a special
AC adapter. The combo tester is available in two models:
the tester alone, or the tester with a stand. A footplate is
also available for use with the 99000.
