New static locator from Meech

Meech International has launched its 983v2 Static Locator, a lightweight pocket-sized device that provides an accurate measurement of static electrical charges over a wide range of voltages. This new locator has been developed for use by production, maintenance, inspection and quality engineers and it is suitable for use on any material where static is an issue.

The Model 983v2 Static Locator features a ‘Continuous’ mode that can measure fluctuation in charge levels, while the highest charge can be detected with the ‘Peak Hold’ mode enabled. With an integral distance meter, a clear indication of the correct operating range is given. For further versatility, there is a large, high contrast LCD screen with digital display that allows the locator to be used in all lighting conditions.

Measurement range of the new locator is -200kV to 200kV at a distance of 150mm, with a resolution of 100V and an accuracy of better than /- 5 percent on calibration. All units are supplied with an individual calibration certificate for QC records.
