Dual Independent Footwear and Wrist Strap Tester

The EMIT Dual Independent Footwear and Wrist Strap Tester is designed to test personnel

grounding devices, wrist strap and ESD footwear, to satisfy the requirements of the ESD

Association.

Per ANSI/ESD- S1.1 Section 6.1.3 Frequency of Functional Testing “The wrist strap system

should be tested daily to ensure proper electrical value.”

Per ESD Handbook ESD TR20.20 Section 5.3.2.4.2 Additional User Wrist Strap Testing “Proper

testing of the wrist strap includes the resistance of the groundable point on the end of the

cord, the cord itself, the resistor, the cord-to cuff snap connector, the resistance of the

interface of the cuff, the cuff/wrist interface, and the resistance of the person between the

wrist and the hand that contacts the test electrode.”

“A log should be maintained which verifies that personnel have tested their personal

grounding devices. (Wrist Straps and ESD Footwear)” (ANSI/ESD S20.20 Section 6.2.2.2

Personnel Grounding Guidance)
