3.4.6 Nondestructive Sample Testing
The Nondestructive Static Decay Test Fixture Model 806B shown in
Figure 3.4-6 replaces the Faraday Cage. It enables the user to non-
destructively test larger objects such as tote boxes, sheet material, work
surfaces, molded parts, etc. It can even measure liquids and powders.
The electrodes are configured in the same manner as the standard
Faraday Cage except instead of clamping the sample to the electrodes
the entire electrode assembly is placed onto the test surface. Conductive
rubber is used for the point of contact to ensure good contact between the
electrodes and the sample.
A high voltage safety switch (in lieu of the Interlock found on the Faraday
Cage is provided to disable the high voltage between tests.)
NOTE:
Failure to turn off the high voltage after performing a test may result
in a shock hazard. High voltage may remain on the electrodes.
