Desco 19432 Static Field Meter – precise measurement of static electricity in EPA and ESD environments
Desco 19432 Static Field Meter is an advanced instrument for measuring static electricity and surface voltage in ESD-protected environments. The instrument is developed for electronics manufacturing, laboratories, cleanrooms, and other environments where control of electrostatic charge is crucial for quality, traceability, and protection of sensitive components.
The handheld field meter allows for quick and precise identification of static charges and polarity on items, materials, and workstations. With automatic distance measurement and intelligent compensation, the user gets more consistent measurements compared to traditional static field meters.
Intelligent measurement of static electricity
Desco 19432 uses a modern Time-of-Flight (ToF) distance sensor, which automatically detects the distance to the object and adjusts the measurement accordingly. This reduces the risk of incorrect measurements and makes the instrument easier to use in busy production environments. (descoasia.com)
The integrated OLED display provides clear readings with a wide viewing angle, making the measurements easy to read – even under varying light conditions in production. (descoasia.com)
Suitable for electronics manufacturing and ESD control
The Static Field Meter 19432 is typically used for:
- Measuring static charge on circuit boards and components
- Verification of ESD-protected workplaces (EPA)
- Troubleshooting ESD-related problems in production
- Control of packaging, plastic materials, and transport solutions
- Measurement and verification of ionization with accessories
The instrument can measure electrostatic fields up to ±19.99 kV and works in both ordinary and ionized environments thanks to the chopper-stabilized sensor. (descoasia.com)
Features that support documentation and process control
Desco 19432 is developed with a focus on modern quality and compliance requirements within the electronics industry. The instrument includes, among other things:
- Automatic snapshot-hold of measured values
- Internal memory for storing measurements
- USB-C for charging and data transfer
- Rechargeable lithium-ion battery
- Auto-zero function
- NIST calibration for traceable measurements
The dissipative housing also helps to ground the instrument during use when the operator is properly grounded. (descoasia.com)
Flexible solution for ionization testing
When used with Desco accessories such as the 19440 Ionization Test Upgrade Kit and 19441 Conductive Plate, the instrument can also be used for measuring offset voltage and discharge times on ionization equipment. This makes the solution relevant in connection with verification according to ANSI/ESD standards and general ESD process control. (descoasia.com)
