Transforming Technologies CM1601 – RangerONE Dual Wire Constant Monitor, 100-240 VAC, 1A

• Monitors one dual wire wrist strap
• Accurate dual conductor Resistance monitoring technology
• Ultra-low-voltage signal
• Conductive ESD-safe case
• Audible and visual alarms

The CM1601 RangerONE constant monitor from Transforming Technologies provides continuous protection against failing dual-wire wrist straps. A constant pulse of an ultra-low voltage signal measures the electrical resistance of the wristband and alarms if there is a problem.

The RangerONE is an extremely sensitive and reliable ground monitoring instrument. Audible and visible alarms are triggered if the operator’s resistance exceeds 35 megohms (factory default). The low resistance of 1.8 megohms also triggers an alarm event.

The RangerONE saves time by eliminating the time-consuming testing of grounding products. The system uses special dual-wire wristband sets that contain two independent elements that provide fail-safe protection. The series can be used with the most common dual-wire wrist straps available. Transforming Technologies offers both fabric and metal wrist bands paired with cords in either 5, 10, or 20-foot lengths. ANSI ESD-S20.20 and ESDA Standard 1.1-2006 requirements are met or exceeded.

Applications:

ESD constant monitors reduce production costs by eliminating the time spent on testing wrist straps. Further savings may be realized by reducing ESD damage from broken wrist straps and work surface failures. Resistance-based monitors are the most accurate technology available.
