Calibration
Frequency of recalibration should be based on the
critical nature of those ESD sensitive items handled
and the risk of failure for the ESD protective equipment
and materials. In general, Desco recommends that
calibration be performed annually.
Use the Desco 98221 Wave Distortion Monitor
Verification Tester to perform periodic verification (once
every 6-12 months) of the Mini Monitor. The verification
tester can be used to check the test limits of the Mini
Monitor without removing it from the workstation.
See

*This cannot be verified with standard DC test
equipment. The continuous monitor is an impedance
sensing device, and the limits are determined by the
magnitude and angle of the impedance.
**The worksurface mat must have a conductive
layer such as Dual Layer Rubber or Dissipative
3-Layer Vinyl with conductive buried layers. Desco
workstation monitors are not recommended for use with
homogeneous matting.
ANSI/ESD S20.20 requires the use of a surface
resistance meter for periodic verification of a
worksurface's resistance-to-ground (Rtg). Constant
monitors may not be used as a substitute for this
requirement.
