The Trek Model 323 Electrostatic Voltmeter performs highly
sensitive voltage measurements using a variety of Trek sideview probes with various body types (round, square).
The Model 323 is a versatile instrument used for a variety of
electrostatic applications including materials evaluation,
electret studies, charge accumulation on disk drive
assemblies, and other extremely sensitive ESD sensitive
components.
The Model 323 is specifically designed for high sensitivity
applications and performs highly accurate, noncontacting
measurement of electrostatic potentials of 0 to 100 V over a
wide range of probe-to-surface distances.
The Model 323 has adjustments to compensate for many
sensitive testing conditions. The response Speed control
adjusts the speed/noise tradeoff of the AC response. The
Drift/Spacing Null Adjustment
offset voltage as the probe to test surface spacing changes.

! Available Monitor Outputs:
The front panel has an easy to read 3½ digit LED display. The
detected output voltage can be monitored through a 1:1
voltage monitor output and a switch selectable scale of 10:1
or 20:1 voltage monitor output.
Trek patented low impedance probes assure measurement
accuracy essentially independent of probe-to-test-surface
spacing, humidity conditions, and contamination such as
airborne dust, toner, ions and chemicals.
