  • Page 2 Rev. 11/30/12 MKB AE-780 Resistance Meter The AE-780 is a lightweight, pocket-sized, auto-ranging surface resistance meter. It is designed to test conductive, dissipative, and insulative surfaces for electrical resistance according to the ESDA’s parallel resistivity probe method DIN EN 100 015/1 & ASTM D257.
  • Page 3 NTRODUCTION The AE-780 Resistance Meter is an easy-to-use tester for measuring surface resistance. When used with the AE-781 Accessory Kit, the AE-780 Resistance Meter is a dependable audit kit for conductive and dissipative surfaces. This meter is designed for use in all facets of material production including engineering, maintenance, quality...

  • Page 4: Test Voltage

    The ESDA standardized the test procedures so that lower volts could be used within specific ranges. The AE-780 meter uses a 9-volt battery. Some meters with 9-volt batteries do not give the accuracy needed to perform the tests, especially at values higher than 10 .
  • Page 5 National Standards and CAD-generated techniques. Meters can be sent back to Armeka Engineering Ltd. for calibration for a lab fee or they can be sent to a certified calibration lab. (See page 12 for calibration instructions.) The meters also come with a CE mark approval.

  • Page 6: External Probes

    XTERNAL ROBES When the measurement is taken using the 5-lb external probes from the AE-780 accessory kit, the tester will indicate the resistance of the material in ohms. The external probes are used to give fast electrical resistivity measurements on flat homogeneous materials.
  • Page 7 AE-780 Operation Manual Rev. 11/30/12 MKB By connecting the 5-lb probes to the AE-780’s sockets, it is possible to measure Resistance Point to Point (RTT), Resistance to Ground (RTG), and Volume Resistance. Using these external probes will allow compliance with various standards including ANSI/ESDA S4.1 for Work surface –...
  • Page 8   AE-780 Operation Manual Rev. 11/30/12 MKB XAMPLE OF EASURING ISSIPATIVE LOORING Taking routine measurements of tiles coated with dissipative floor finish is a key component of proper floor maintenance. Any problems that arise with the floor will be easily detected. Keeping a record of temperature, humidity and electrical properties will provide a reference, and will point toward a blueprint of traffic patterns on the floor.
  • Page 9   AE-780 Operation Manual Rev. 11/30/12 MKB (RTG) EASURING ESISTANCE TO ROUND RTG measurements can be used for the evaluation of floors, chairs, carts, work surfaces and other ESD-controlled materials and products. Keeping a record of test results for temperature, humidity and electrical properties will provide a reference.
  • Page 10   AE-780 Operation Manual Rev. 11/30/12 MKB XAMPLE OF EASURING ISSIPATIVE ABLE A. To test RTG on a workstation, connect the first lead to the meter and to a 5-lb probe. Place the probe on the work surface. Connect the second lead to the meter and to a groundable point (RTGP).
  • Page 11   AE-780 Operation Manual Rev. 11/30/12 MKB Volume Resistance Measurement Volume Resistance measures the electrical path through a material. Connect one end of each of the banana test leads into the sockets of the meter. Connect the other end of the test coil cords into the 5-lb probes.

  • Page 12: Specifications

    This meter should be calibrated every twelve months. To verify if the tester is within specification, a test resistance can be applied across the parallel bars using a resistance decade box. Calibration can be obtained by contacting Armeka Engineering Ltd..
