What is ESD calibration?

ESD calibration is the process of adjusting and verifying ESD equipment to ensure it measures electrostatic discharge accurately and complies with standards.

Why is ESD calibration important?

ESD calibration is important to maintain the accuracy of ESD equipment, ensuring optimal protection for sensitive electronic devices from electrostatic discharge.

How often should ESD equipment be calibrated?

ESD equipment should typically be calibrated annually or as recommended by the manufacturer to ensure accuracy and compliance with industry standards.

What are the standards for ESD calibration?

ESD calibration standards are guidelines that ensure equipment measures electrostatic discharge accurately. These standards vary by region and industry.

Can I calibrate ESD equipment myself?

It is recommended to use professional calibration services for ESD equipment to ensure precision and compliance with industry standards.

What equipment requires ESD calibration?

Common ESD equipment that requires calibration includes wrist straps, footwear testers, ionizers, and ESD work surfaces.

Where can I find ESD calibration services?

ESD calibration services can be found through specialized companies that offer professional equipment calibration to ensure compliance with ESD standards.

ESD Calibration - TEC

ESD Measuring

Calibration of ESD measuring and test equipment ensures traceability to national and international measurement standards - a mandatory requirement under IEC 61340-5-1 and its companion verification standard IEC 61340-5-2. Surface resistance measurements must fall within the defined decade range of 10⁵ to 10⁹ Ω, and only a calibrated instrument with a valid calibration certificate and documented measurement uncertainty can confirm that your EPA (Electrostatic Protected Area) instruments deliver legally defensible, audit-ready readings.

esd.equipment supplies 9 calibration-related products for ESD measuring instruments - covering resistance decade boxes, calibration standards, and certified reference loads traceable to PTB or NIST. All items comply with DIN EN ISO/IEC 17025 traceability requirements and support recurring calibration intervals as specified in ANSI/ESD S20.20 and IEC 61340-5-2 audit programmes.
