Leading companies use continuous monitors as a cost effective component in satisfying the paragraph 6.1.3 Compliance Verification Plan requirements of ANSI/ESD S20.20. The Desco EMIT Full Time Continuous Monitor provides 100% monitoring of both the operator and the work surface. This unit provides continuous monitoring of:

• One user wearing a wrist strap
• ESD work surface
• Ground

If the unit detects that the elements are outside industry standards, the continuous monitor will alarm by both an audible signal and an illuminated red LED to notify the user of a problem.

Unlike many units, the Full Time Continuous Monitor also continuously verifies ground (AC outlet ground). When the Power Cord is plugged in, a self-test runs automatically. If the AC outlet is wired incorrectly, both red LEDs will illuminate and the audible alarm will sound. The unit has an additional wrist strap ground point banana jack for a seconduser or supervisor.

Features:

• Provides continuous monitoring of: 1) One user wearing a wrist a wrist strap, 2) ESD work surface, 3) Electrical ground.
• NEW - Mat ground connection for grounding and verifying resistance of mat to ground
• NEW - IEC power connector
• NEW - I/O port for setting up relay to turn a light tower on and off when monitor is passing or failing
• Stand-by parking snap
• Hook and loop fastening supplied
• Provided with calibration to NIST traceable standards
• Provides true 100% continuous monitoring with reliable wave distortion technology; no false alarms
• Work surface resistance: 10 megohms
• Includes elastic wrist strap kit

Note: Work surface must have a conductive layer such as Dual Layer Rubber, Dissipative 3-Layer Vinyl or Micastat® Dissipative Laminate with conductive buried layers. Desco EMIT Continuous Monitors are not recommended for use with homogeneous matting.
