1Introduction
Electrostatic charges may interfere with
industrial production processes and destroy
sensitive electronic components in the event of
uncontrolled discharge. In particular,
electrostatic charges occur in areas where
highly insulating materials are used.
The Static Control Digital enables you to
measure such electrostatic charges.
Where electrostatic charges are present,
targeted counter-measures for their elimination
can be considered.
HAUG GmbH & Co. KG has been solving
problems associated with electrostatic charges
for a long time. We will be pleased to help you
optimize your production processes.
Just give us a call or send us an e-mail….

Notes on operating instructions
Please keep these operating instructions for
later use or future users. They form part of the
Static Control Digital.
The term “Static Control Digital“ is abbreviated
SCD in these operating instructions.
General notes regarding your Static Control
Digital
The SCD has been designed and tested in
accordance with the safety regulations for
measuring and control equipment.
When using the SCD, make sure you read and
observe the information and safety instructions
contained in these operating instructions.
The SCD is operationally safe, provided that it is
operated in accordance with its intended use.

Symbols used
If this safety information is not observed, severe
injuries or death may result.
NOTE:
Important notes and additional information.
Do not dispose of with household
garbage.

4 General safety instructions
8
4General safety instructions
All activities must be performed only by persons
authorized by the owner. Such persons must
have read and understood the operating
instructions.
Unauthorized conversions and modifications of
the SCD are not permissible for safety reasons.
Carry out a visual inspection each time before
you use the SCD.
Do not use the SCD in the event of visible
damage and suspected electrical defects.
Contact HAUG GmbH & Co. KG. in this case
(see cover sheet).
The SCD housing is not protected against
moisture. Moisture and wetness may therefore
enter the SCD. This may result in defects within
the SCD or even failure.
Protect the SCD from humidity and wetness.
In the event of large temperature
differentials, condensation water will form on
the colder object. Condensation water which
has formed within the SCD may result in
measuring errors or failure of the SCD.
Do not use the SCD immediately after you
have brought it from a cold into a warm
environment.
Allow the SCD to dry if condensation water
has formed.

5 Intended use
9
5Intended use
Risk of explosion in areas with potentially
explosive atmospheres.
During the measurement of electrostatic
charges using the SCD, ignitable sparks may
form. These may ignite gases, dust or similar
substances.
Do not use the SCD in areas with potentially
explosive atmospheres.
The SCD is a measuring unit intended to
measure electrostatic charges on surfaces and
allows such charges to be measured in the
range of ±1999 kV/m.
Only use the SCD under the operating
conditions specified in these operating
instructions.

Before measuring
Before measuring, check the SCD. Check the
function of the display and the state of the
battery.
Press and hold the start button. The display will
show all segments briefly (Fig. 5).
Fig. 5
The LOBAT indicator will flash to alert you to a
low voltage of the block battery.
If the LOBAT indicator is displayed
continuously, the voltage is too low for accurate
measurement. No reliable measuring value can
be provided. Replace the block battery (see
page 14: “Replacing the block battery“).
NOTE:
The SCD must be switched off so that all
segments of the display can be shown while
holding the Start button. The SCD will switch
off automatically after 15 s.
Visually inspect the SCD for any contamination.
To obtain a reliable measuring value, the spacer
pins and sensor plate must be dry and free of
grease (see page 14: “Cleaning the SCD“).

7 Measuring

Preparing a measurement
Plug one end of the grounding cable into the
ground socket of the SCD.
Fig. 6
Connect the other end of the grounding cable
to a protective ground, e.g. by using the pick-off
clip.
Fig. 7
NOTE:
The SCD is calibrated when connected to
ground. A reliable measuring value can only
be provided when the SCD is connected to
ground.

Carrying out a measurement
1. Hold the SCD vertically with its two spacer
pins against a grounded surface.
2. Press and hold the start button. The SCD
will calibrate itself and show a value of
"000" on the display.
Fig. 8
3. Now approach the surface to be measured
with the SCD, until the spacer pins come to
rest vertically.
Fig. 9
4. Release the Start button. The measuring
value will now be saved.
5. Remove the SCD from the surface
measured.
6. Read the measured value on the display.
NOTE:
The measuring value will be displayed for
about 15 s (hold function). The SCD will then
switch off automatically.

Replacing the block battery
NOTE:
Do not dispose of batteries with the
household garbage (see page 18: ”Disposal
of batteries”).
Cleaning the SCD
1. Open the battery compartment lid at
the rear of the SCD.
2. Remove the block battery from the
compartment and separate from the
connection clip.
3. Connect a new block battery to the
connection clip, and insert battery
into compartment.
4. Reattach the lid to close the battery
compartment.
1. Moisten a dust- and lint-
f
ree cloth with
our special cleaning agent SRM1 or
with medical-grade alcohol.
2. Clean the spacer pins and sensor
plate using the moistened cloth.
3. Allow the SCD to dry before
performing a measurement.

NOTE:
Reliable measuring values will not be
provided unless the cleaning agent has
evaporated completely.
