Dual Footwear Tester

ESD Dual Footwear Testers are the first line of defence against electrostatic charge build up on the human body. They are designed to drain away this charge to ground, as soon as it is generated. At the same time the special footwear must remain electrically safe for the user. Thus, it is important to test every footwear regularly. In order to protect sensitive electronic components, the maximum footwear resistance should not be more than 35 mega ohms. On the other hand, the resistance should not be less than 0.75 mohm as protection to the wearer from dangerous levels of voltage and current flow. This footwear tester checks these parameters under actual operating conditions while wearing the footwear. The unique testing circuits ensure that both left and right side ESD footwear are tested independently.
