PESD 3010

30kV Electrostatic Discharge Generator

 Bringing dissimilar insulation materials together

and then parting them creates electrostatic charges.
The resultant electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause
failures in electronic circuits.
There are two principal methods of discharge: Air
discharge and contact discharge. Contact discharge is
the preferred test method because test results are
more reproducible.

There are many standards which require discharge
component (Resistor & Capacitor) values other than
those described in the IEC/EN 61000-4-2 standard.
With PESD 3010 it is possible to meet these
requirements due to the changeable R&C modules.

PESD 3010 features a unique NO CONTACT
detection circuit. During contact discharge tests,
PESD 3010 continuously monitors if ESD pulses are
really discharged to the EUT (Equipment under Test).
In case of no contact to the EUT, the operator
receives a warning message in the LCD display. This
prevents the user from potentially wrong test results.

PESD 3010 has a highly ergonomic design. This
includes a firm handle that insures safe and
comfortable operation under any circumstances, and
dedicated, large conventional pushbuttons for easy and
convenient setting of all test parameters.

For long running tests, a screw socket on the bottom
enables to mount the gun on a standard tripod.

IEC test levels L1 to L4 are predefined and are
shown in the LCD together with the
test voltage.

Capacitor modules

for the PESD 3010 are available with any value in the
range from 50pF to 1000pF and Resistor modules
with any value in the range from 50 ohms to 5000
ohms, in any combination ensuring maximum

flexibility.

 Benefits

Flexible System – PESD 3010 is a modular design

that enables users to meet many different test
specifications with maximum cost effectiveness.

Efficiency and Reliability – The integrated self
test function verifies all the relevant functions of

the ESD generator at the push of a button within
30 seconds.
This ensures correct test of the device under test at
any time, without doing time-consuming manual
verifications of the ESD generator.

Comfortable to use – The lightweight, balanced
weight distribution and ergonomic handle design
mean that testing can be performed over long
periods without operators becoming fatigued.
All actual test parameters are showed in a
comfortable, large LCD.

Sturdy and Reliable – Careful component selection
ensures that the PESD 3010 will continue to operate
under the most strenuous testing regime.
