Information About FMX-004
The FMX-004 is a portable electrostatic fieldmeter built for checking static charge levels and evaluating ionizer balance. Its conductive ABS enclosure, integrated distance-guidance LEDs, and compact handheld construction support consistent measurements at the specified one-inch sensing distance. The instrument provides automatic, high, low, and ion balance measurement modes with dedicated display formats for different voltage ranges. Push-button controls for power, hold, zero, and mode selection simplify operation during ESD inspections, equipment checks, and static-control maintenance.
Key Features:
- Electrostatic Measurement: Measures surface potentials across multiple ranges up to ±30.0 kV.
- Ion Balance Mode: Supports ion balance measurements from 0 to ±300 V when used with the ion balance plate.
- Polarity Indication: Red LCD indicates positive polarity, while blue LCD indicates negative polarity.
- Distance Guidance: Integrated LEDs help maintain the specified 1-inch measurement distance.
- Auto-Ranging Display: Automatically selects the appropriate display resolution based on the measured voltage.
- Hold Function: Retains the measured value on the display for convenient recording and inspection.
- Fast Response: Provides a response time of less than one second with a five-times-per-second renewal rate.
- Status Monitoring: Displays battery condition and sensor errors with audible alerts for operating conditions and over-range measurements.
The FMX-004 delivers the reliability and precision required for electrostatic field measurement, ion balance verification, and ESD control inspections.
