Intuitive, Accurate Nanocoulomb Meter

Advanced Energy’s Monroe 284 nanocoulomb meter offers two ranges and allows you to easily and accurately measure the charge generated on electronic components by triboelectric charging processes. 

• Ranges Available: 20 nC and 200 nC
• Accuracy: 2% of reading, + zero offset, +/- 1 lsd
• Analog output
• Battery-powered

Overview

Static charges may build up on integrated circuits as they vibrate and slide in shipping tubes or on PC boards due to contact with protective packaging materials. The MonroeTM 284 nanocoulomb meter is ideal to help select and evaluate packaging materials. It allows you to take direct charge measurements by dropping materials into the optional Faraday cup. The charge is then transferred to the cup and measured. You can also use an oscilloscope probe to take charge measurements on smaller objects and omit the Faraday cup.
