Continuous Monitor for Single Workstation
This single-workstation continuous monitor Desco 19342 from DESCO continuously monitors the path-to-ground integrity for one operator and one ESD work surface. The unit's illuminated housing indicates status with color-coded LEDs: green for correct ground connection, red (with audible alarm) for breaks or intermittent connections, and blue for standby.
Features
- Continuous monitoring of operator and work surface path-to-ground.
- Wave Distortion Technology with 1.2 V operator test voltage and alarm response under 50 ms.
- Monitors work surface path-to-ground for less than 10 MΩ.
- ParkSnap™ with approximately 8 seconds park-delay timer for temporary disconnection without alarm.
- Mat monitor switch to disable work surface monitoring and adjustable audible alarm level.
- Supplied with mounting hardware and universal 100–240 VAC power supply with IEC C14 inlet; the unit is NIST calibrated.

Typical Applications
The Desco 19342 is used for continuous verification of electrical connection between a single operator and ground, as well as to ensure that a work surface has a path-to-ground below 10 MΩ. The ParkSnap™ function is used for temporary disconnection of the wrist strap without triggering an alarm for approximately 8 seconds.
