Model 520 Series HAND-HELD Electrostatic Voltmeter The Model 520 Series includes the Model 520 and Model 523. The TREK Model 520 Hand-Held Electrostatic Voltmeter (ESVM) Series products provide accurate, noncontacting measurements of electrostatic surface voltage for ESD applications in either ionized or non-ionized environments. Industrial applications include measuring charge accumulation in the LCD manufacturing process or measuring static charge in semiconductor production. The Model 520 series ESVMs utilize a new measurement technique that overcomes the disadvantage of the typical hand-held fieldmeter by providing surface voltage measurements which are essentially independent of the sensor probe-to-measured surface spacing.
Model:520-1 ESVM Over a spacing range of 5 mm to 25 mm, the 520 voltmeter provides better than a 5% voltage measurement accuracy, while the typical fieldmeter provides a voltage measurement error in excess of 50%. An optional voltage monitor output is available (Model:520-2).
Model 523 ESVM Over a spacing range of 30 mm to 60 mm, the 523 voltmeter provides greater than a 5% voltage measurement accuracy, while the typical fieldmeter provides a voltage measurement error in excess of 50%. The 520 series provides a measurement system which complies with standardized calibration equipment traceable to the National Institute of Standards and Technology. The 520 series
