Description
The Desco 19290 Digital Surface Resistance Meter
Kit is an instrument designed to measure resistance
point-to-point (Rtt) or surface to ground (Rtg).
Its test functions include:
• Resistance measurement accuracy of ±10%
(±20% accuracy for 1 x 10
• Resistance range of <1 x 10
ohms
• Under load voltages of 10 and 100 volts ±5%
• Electrification period of approximately 15 seconds
The Digital Surface Resistance Meter also measures
ambient temperature and relative humidity. Up to 100
measurements may be stored and recalled from the
meter's internal memory. This includes the resistance
value, temperature, relative humidity and test voltage at
the time of the measurement.

"A Compliance Verification Plan shall be established
to ensure the Organization's fulfillment of the technical
requirements of the ESD Control Program Plan. Process
monitoring (measurements) shall be conducted in
accordance with a Compliance Verification Plan that
identifies the technical requirements to be verified, the
measurement limits and the frequency at which those
verifications shall occur. The Compliance Verification
Plan shall document the test methods and equipment
used for process monitoring and measurements. If the
test methods used by the Organization differ from any
of the standards referenced in this document, then
there must be a tailoring statement that is documented
as part of the ESD Control Program Plan. Compliance
verification records shall be established and maintained
to provide evidence of conformity to the technical
requirements. The test equipment selected shall be
12 capable of making the measurements defined in the
Compliance Verification Plan." (ANSI/ESD S20.20
section 7.3)
