M 230 – NanoCoulomb Meter

Overview:

The Model 230 Nanocoulomb Meter is a wide range instrument capable of measuring charge as low as ±0.01 nanocoulomb. The 230 meets the requirements specified in ESD Association, EIA, DOD and other industry standards and features three user selectable ranges of 0-±20 nC, 0-±200 nC and 0-±2000 nC. Various size cups and buckets are available to meet specific requirements.

Electrostatic Charge on an object can be measured by placing it into a Faraday Cup. The charge is transferred to the cup and measured by a Nanocoulomb Meter.
