Discover the Prostat PFK-100 Electrostatic Field Meter Set at Mektronics Australia – your trusted source for quality tools and equipment!
Prostat’s innovative PFK-100 set was the first instrument combination of its kind. It includes Prostat's unique PFM-711A dual range field meter, the original CPM-720A portable charged plate monitor assembly and PCS-730 ±1 kV charging source.With this instrument set you can measure electrostatic fields, analyze ionizer performance and assess the voltage generation of materials, equipment and personnel.
The battery operated PFM-711A Field Meter is a compact stabilized "electronic chopper" design with accuracy of ±2% at ambient conditions (23ºC and 30%Rh). This advanced design allows it to be used in ionized environments without drifting. It features automatic polarity indication, a measurement "hold" button, low battery indicator, high and low ranges, distance ranging lights for accurate and repeatable measurements, manual zero control and a ground snap. The PFM-711A offers the user two ranges of operation:
-
0 – 1,999V in 1 Volt increments with
-
0 – 20,000V in 10 Volt increments with
With the supplied analog output cable, it can be used in conjunction with an X-Y plotter or any analog data-recording device. The front panel analog output jack provides a 1 volt output corresponding to 10kV, which is independent of the selected meter range and indication.
The CPM-720A Charge Plate Assembly is 3.25 inches square. It attaches to the PFM-711A field meter for ionizer balancing per ANSI/ESD SP3.3 Periodic Verification, voltage or charge generation and voltage suppression analysis.Performace studies indicate the CPM-720A 3.25 inch plate has a strong correlation to the CPM-760A 6 inch Charge Plate Monitor.
The PCS-730 ±1 kV Charging Source is used to charge the CPM-720A to ±1,000 volts to measure ionizer decay time as required by both ANSI/ESD S3.1 and ANSI/ESD SP3.3.These three instruments are match calibrated to work together for accurate and efficient auditing.
The PFK-100 Field Meter Set can be used for voltage generation and decay analysis in conjunction with a variety of data recording instruments. Prostat’s PGA-710B Autoanalysis System® is a most unique electrostatic data analysis device. It records, plots, analyzes and automatically constructs reports of body voltage generation, electrostatic decay, voltage retention, ionizer performance and other static measuring functions. The combination of Prostat’s PFK-100 Set and PGA-710B Autoanalysis System® is the most up to date instrument collection for meeting today’s ANSI/ESD S20.20 and IEC 61340-5-1 ESD Program standard requirements.

SHIPPING
A delivery and handling charge applies to all orders with the exception of back-ordered items.
Unless otherwise required by Buyer, Seller will make transport arrangements as follows:
For deliveries within the metropolitan areas of mainland State capital cities a standard freight charge may be added to invoice; goods
For delivery outside those areas, seller will select the transport to be used and prepay freight for Buyer. Seller will then bill Buyer for freight at Seller's discretion.
Should the Buyer request goods be sent to a Post Office box the Buyer acknowledges this method is the only available and therefore the Seller is not liable for undelivered goods.
Free shipping on orders over $199 incl GST (valid for 1 delivery per order and excludes NT, WA & TAS). If only part of the order is in stock, the customer has the option of paying for a second delivery if they require a partial shipment prior to all goods becoming available. Mektronics Australia reserves the right to charge additional freight in the event of hazardous, bulky or heavy items ordered.
DELIVERY TIME
All quoted delivery or consignment dates are estimates only, given without engagement.
Delay in consignment of any part of an order shall not relieve Buyer of its obligation to accept and pay for the remainder of the order.
Except as provided in paragraph 1.2 of Terms & Conditions, seller will not be liable to pay damages or compensation for any injury or loss sustained by Buyer
a) in the event of a delay in consignment or delivery of goods: or
b) in the event of non delivery.
Goods offered ex-stock by Seller are subject to prior sale.
In the event of any happening beyond Seller's reasonable control in consequence of which Seller cannot effect consignment by the time or times quoted or specified, Seller shall be entitled to consign part only of an order, suspend consignment or extend the time for consignment, for the period during which such cause of delay operates, or may cancel the order, and in the event of such suspension, extension or cancellation, Seller shall not be liable for damages.
