1 Introduction

1 Introduction

Electrostatic charges may interfere with
industrial production processes and destroy
sensitive electronic components in the event of
uncontrolled discharge. In particular,
electrostatic charges occur in areas where
highly insulating materials are used.

The Static Control Digital enables you to
measure such electrostatic charges.
Where electrostatic charges are present,
targeted counter-measures for their elimination
can be considered.

HAUG GmbH & Co. KG has been solving
problems associated with electrostatic charges
for a long time. We will be pleased to help you
optimize your production processes.
Just give us a call or send us an e-mail….

Notes on operating instructions

Please keep these operating instructions for
later use or future users. They form part of the
Static Control Digital.

The term “Static Control Digital“ is abbreviated
SCD in these operating instructions.

General notes regarding your Static Control
Digital

The SCD has been designed and tested in
accordance with the safety regulations for
measuring and control equipment.

When using the SCD, make sure you read and
observe the information and safety instructions
contained in these operating instructions.

The SCD is operationally safe, provided that it is
operated in accordance with its intended use.

If this safety information is not observed, severe
injuries or death may result.

NOTE:

Important notes and additional information.

Do not dispose of with household
garbage.

4 General safety instructions

4 General safety instructions

All activities must be performed only by persons
authorized by the owner. Such persons must
have read and understood the operating
instructions.

Unauthorized conversions and modifications of
the SCD are not permissible for safety reasons.

Carry out a visual inspection each time before
you use the SCD.
Do not use the SCD in the event of visible
damage and suspected electrical defects.
Contact HAUG GmbH & Co. KG. in this case
(see cover sheet).

The SCD housing is not protected against
moisture. Moisture and wetness may therefore

enter the SCD. This may result in defects within
the SCD or even failure.

 Protect the SCD from humidity and wetness.

In the event of large temperature
differentials, condensation water will form on
the colder object. Condensation water which

has formed within the SCD may result in
measuring errors or failure of the SCD.

 Do not use the SCD immediately after you

have brought it from a cold into a warm
environment.

 Allow the SCD to dry if condensation water

has formed.

5 Intended use

5 Intended use

Risk of explosion in areas with potentially

explosive atmospheres.
During the measurement of electrostatic
charges using the SCD, ignitable sparks may
form. These may ignite gases, dust or similar
substances.

 Do not use the SCD in areas with potentially

explosive atmospheres.

The SCD is a measuring unit intended to
measure electrostatic charges on surfaces and
allows such charges to be measured in the
range of ±1999 kV/m.

Only use the SCD under the operating
conditions specified in these operating
instructions.

Before measuring

Before measuring, check the SCD. Check the
function of the display and the state of the
battery.

Press and hold the start button. The display will
show all segments briefly (Fig. 5).

If the LOBAT indicator is displayed
continuously, the voltage is too low for accurate
measurement. No reliable measuring value can
be provided. Replace the block battery (see

segments of the display can be shown while
holding the Start button. The SCD will switch
off automatically after 15 s.

Visually inspect the SCD for any contamination.
To obtain a reliable measuring value, the spacer
pins and sensor plate must be dry and free of
grease (see page 14: “Cleaning the SCD“).
