Product Overview
This DESCO 19343 Mini Monitor is a single-workstation continuous monitor that monitors the path-to-ground integrity for one operator and one ESD work surface. The unit uses Wave Distortion Technology and applies a 1.2 V test voltage to the operator to detect circuit continuity and the presence of a 1 megohm safety resistor. The Mini Monitor provides visual status indication and an audible alarm in case of disconnection or fault in the connection.Features
- Continuous monitoring of one operator and one work surface using Wave Distortion Technology.
- Operator test voltage: 1.2 V (peak-to-peak) applied for detecting circuit continuity and 1 MΩ safety resistor.
- Visual status: green = proper grounding, red + audible alarm = fault, blue = standby.
- Includes 10 mm ParkSnap™ with approximately 8 seconds park delay to prevent false alarms from temporary disconnection.
- Comes with 100–240 VAC universal power adapter with IEC C14 connector (external adapter).
- Calibrated to NIST standards according to the manufacturer.
Typical Applications
- Monitoring path-to-ground integrity for a single operator via single-wire wrist strap.
- Verification of one ESD work surface's path-to-ground (monitors if the work surface's resistance to ground is below 10 MΩ).
Operation and Documentation
The Mini Monitor responds with visual and audible alarms to breaks in the connection (alarm response <50 ms). The operator input is monitored via a single-wire jack; the ParkSnap™/park button allows temporary disconnection without alarm (approx. 8 seconds). The unit supports checking the work surface's path-to-ground and can be mounted directly into the mat or with accessories such as ring magnets or push & clinch snaps, as described in the manufacturer's documentation.
