Overview: Botron's innovative ELITE Programmable Combination Wrist band and Heel Strap/Shoe Tester not only tests the operators wrist straps and footwear but it will also tell you what test resistance you are at, for each item under test. It has a graphic display that will show you if you passed or failed; additionally it will indicate what resistance you are at. If you are close to failing it will show you that you may need a new wrist strap or heel grounder soon and you can prevent failures from happening. The ELITE Tester also has two built-in relays that will allow you to connect to your turnstile, doors or light towers to prevent operators from walking into a ESD floor without proper testing. The ELITE Tester is also equipped with programmable test settings using VTR technology (Variable Test Resistance), putting customization at your fingertips. There are no manufacturer set limits locking you out from making tighter adjustments to your program.

Grounding and Mounting: Mounting hardware comes with each unit to mount to wall. It is essential that the footplate be grounded to avoid any interference from lighting or noise. A Ground cord is supplied to insure proper grounding and best test results.

ESD Application: Implement the ELITE Programmable Combination Tester anywhere employees need to test their wrist straps and heel grounders/shoes. This fullfills your requirement for an On Demand Tester to verify that your ESD items are working properly. If you’re using paper logging our tester includes data resistance so you can also track changes in resistance everyday and write that on your log sheet. A Logging Series is also available with software, embedded Ethernet Adapter, laser scanner and keypad.
