General
- The ESD test is an EMC test. This means that artificial interference, which may lead to malfunction of electronic equip-
ment, is generated. As consequence, the operator has the responsibility to avoid any risk for persons and material during
laboratory tests. Long connection cables of the DUT can radiate certain energy and interfere with adjacent devices that do
not belong to the test setup. Therefore, it is also the responsibility of the operator to decide whether EMC-tests are permis-
sible in a certain environment and, if so, on what premises.
- National and international safety standards must be taken into account during each test procedure.
- Operators must be well educated in the use of high voltage test instruments.
- The discharge module must be connected to the ground reference plane during operation.
- The user is not allowed to change or modify any part of the instrument by himself. For service and repair, only original EM
TEST parts or components must be used. EM TEST is not responsible for damage or personnel hazard due to the use of
different parts or components.
- If maintenance or service work is necessary, it may be performed only by experts who are familiar with the existing danger.
- In case of using a tripod to mount the dito for longterm testing, the power mains adapter MAD shall be used
to achieve similar ground reference conditions as during handheld testing
to avoid running out of battery supply during automated test procedures
