• ESD event and static voltage field continuous monitor with ionizer antenna to check the performance.
• EM Aware Monitor mini radio receiver detects and measures the unique waveform of an ESD event.
• Ethernet connectivity – provide network communication with Static Management Program (SMP)
• Optical relay terminal to pair with lights, and buzzers for increased visibility
• Monitor workstations, pick-and-place machines, SMT conveyors, and more 

The SCS 770066 EM Aware Monitor monitors three key parameters that keep you aware of critical symptoms of ESD problems: ESD events, change in static voltage field, and ionizer performance (ionizer must have a balance (offset voltage) of ±40 V or better. The thresholds for these parameters are fully adjustable. The monitor is constructed of an aluminum enclosure, LCD display, control joystick, remote antenna, relay terminal, and Ethernet connectivity. ESD events generate electromagnetic radiation. The stronger the ESD event, the stronger the electromagnetic radiation. The EM Aware Monitor is a miniature radio receiver tuned to detect and measure the unique waveform generated by an ESD event.

SCS EM Aware Monitor Features and Attributes:

• ESD event continuous monitor – detects and measures the unique waveform generated by ESD events
• Static voltage field continuous monitor – measures the change in electrostatic field and alarms if the voltage exceeds a user-defined limit
• Ethernet connectivity – provides network communication with Static Management Program (SMP) – 770055 Sold Separately;  Data collected through SMP includes ESD event count and voltage, static voltage field and ionization discharge times, and offset voltage (balance)
• Digital signal processing technology - Applies an ultra-low test voltage to the operator (0.05V) for the handling of sensitive components
• Optical relay terminal – Pairs with lights and buzzers for increased visibility
• Ionizer compatibility range and interchangeable ionizer antenna - Monitors ionizers with a balance (offset voltage) of ±40 V or better
• Comprehensive diagnostics tool - Identifies problematic environments and qualifies tools for handling ESD-sensitive devices
• 100-240V AC power adapter with interchangeable plugs - Works with standard electrical systems in North America, the United Kingdom, Japan, Asia, and Europe
• Certificate of calibration
• Made in the USA

The SCS 770066 EM Aware Continuous Monitor is compatible with SCS Static Management Program (SMP). SMP continuously monitors an ESD process control system throughout all stages of manufacturing. SMP captures data from SCS workstations, equipment, and ESD event continuous monitors and provides a real-time picture of critical manufacturing processes. All activity is stored in a database for ongoing quality control purposes. SMP allows its administrators to pinpoint areas of concern and prevent ESD events. Quantifiable data allows its administrators to see trends, become more proactive, and prove the efficiency of their ESD process control system.

The EM Aware Monitor meets the Continuous Monitor requirements of ANSI/ESD S20.20 in accordance with ESD TR1.0-01 and ANSI/ESD STM3.1. It meets the recommendations of ESD Handbook ESD TR20.20, which includes:

“if the products that are being produced are of such value that knowledge of a continuous, reliable ground is needed, and then continuous monitoring should be considered or even required”.
