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
TB-3074
for more information.
Operation
1. Fit the wristband snugly onto the wrist.
2. Snap the wrist cord to the wristband.
3. Plug the wrist cord into the operator jack. The green
operator LED will illuminate. This indicates that the
operator is properly grounded.
4. If this does not happen, examine the wrist cord for
continuity or damage and the wristband to ensure
that it fits securely. If you have dry skin, apply an
approved dissipative hand lotion such as
Menda
Reztore® ESD Hand Lotion
.
5. When leaving the workstation, first touch the
monitor's park snap. The monitor's audible alarm
will disable for approximately 10 seconds. Use this
time to disconnect the wrist cord from the wristband
and attach it to the park snap without sounding a
false alarm.
6. Upon returning to the workstation and disconnecting
the wrist cord from the park snap, the monitor will
provide approximately 10 seconds for the operator
to reconnect the wrist cord to a worn wristband
before sounding the monitor's alarm.
