Advanced Energy MONROE 282H User manual

©2021 Advanced Energy Industries, Inc.
The Monroe 282H 200 kV/cm range digital Stat-ArcTM fieldmeter
is a pocket-sized, non-contacting static meter for consistently
accurate readings. Simply hold the instrument so the range
finder LED beams from a non-pulsing circle indicating you're
at exactly the right distance from the target for readings up to
2000 V.

1. Turn the instrument ON.
2. Discharge your body by touching a grounded metal object.
3. Point the aperture toward a grounded object and press the ZERO button.
4. Aim the aperture toward the target surface at a distance of 1ft. Adjust the distance until the flashing beams of the
LEDs inthe instrument converge. Read the voltage and polarity of the charged surface on the meter display.
For additional measurements, repeat step four.
Maintenance
The battery should be replaced annually, whenever you plan an extended period of unattended monitoring, or
whenever "BAT" appears on the display for more than an instant. To obtain accurate and drift-free readings, the
sensor plate and especially the area around the aperture must be kept absolutely clean at all times. Never touchthe
aperture with anything—not even a cotton swab.
