Wrist strap and Footwear System

The patented* EMIT SmartLog V5™ system is designed for fast, frequent, and accurate testing of ESD personnel grounding items. Its unique design embeds an ESD tester, time clock, keypad, barcode scanner, Ethernet module and proximity badge reader (optional) into a compact stainless steel enclosure.

 

By touching the solid-state switch once, the SmartLog V5™ independently tests the resistance path limits of the worn wrist strap and both worn ESD footwear in less than 2 seconds. It may also test a worn ESD garment if it is used as part of personnel grounding path. Test results are electronically stored in the SmartLog V5™ and easily downloaded to a PC for logging records and evaluation. This product can be used as one of the tools to fulfill the ANSI/ESD S20.20 section 7.3 “Compliance Verification Plan.”

 

Paperless data can enhance operator accountability, immediately identifying problems while reducing logging and auditing costs. There is no need to dedicate a computer for each test station. The SmartLog V5™ is a complete system including all required components. Operator identification can be accomplished using the keypad, scanning a barcode badge or waving a proximity badge (verify compatibility with the factory).

 

The SmartLog V5™ can test either single or dual-wire wrist straps and its split footplate design provides individual footwear testing all in a single test. With the use of TEAM5 Software, the SmartLog V5™ can be programmed to assign unique test requirements to
personnel. An individual can be required to test either wrist strap only, footwear only or a combination of the two.

If a resistance path is below or exceeds the set limits, the SmartLog will indicate failure via audio and visual alarms. Use the included relay terminal to promote access control for passed tests. The SmartLog V5™ can also be networked to a company’s Intranet using its embedded Ethernet module. The SmartLog V5™ is calibrated to NIST traceable standards.
