The Haefely PESD 1600 Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Simulator / Generator Gun has been replaced by the Haefely ONYX 16 kV ESD Test Generator. The Haefely PESD 1600 is still suitable for most ESD immunity test applications and can be rented or purchased at an economical price compared to current model 16 kV ESD simulators. Please note quantities are limited as parts are no longer available and units must be scrapped once functionality fails.
Haefely PESD 1600 Description:
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.
The Haefely PESD 1600 features a unique NO CONTACT detection circuit. During contact discharge tests, PESD 1600 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.
The PESD 1600 has a highly ergonomic design. This includes a firm handle that insures safe and comfortable operation under any circumstances, and dedicated, large conventional push buttons for easy and convenient setting of all test parameters. For long running tests, a screw socket on the bottom enables the user to mount the gun on a standard tripod.
