Standard Terms & Conditions:
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) simulators, also known as ESD guns, are handheld test instruments designed to reproduce real-world static discharge events in a controlled and repeatable manner. They are used to evaluate how rapid changes in voltage and current affect the performance, functionality, and reliability of electrical and electronic equipment. Most simulators include both air-discharge and contact-discharge tips to support the test methods defined in applicable standards, with IEC 61000-4-2 being the most widely used standard for commercial and industrial products.
While many ESD simulators are designed to meet the requirements of IEC 61000-4-2—typically providing test levels up to 15 kV for air discharge and 8 kV for contact discharge—other industries have higher test level requirements. Automotive applications, for example, may require testing at discharge levels up to 30 kV, while military, aerospace, and other product-specific standards may specify different test procedures, discharge networks, or waveform characteristics. In addition to maximum output voltage, simulator characteristics such as the discharge network's resistance and capacitance values vary depending on the applicable test standard, ensuring the generated waveform accurately represents the intended ESD event.
Before selecting an ESD simulator, it is important to identify the applicable test standard and its specific requirements, including discharge method, voltage level, and network configuration. Choosing the correct simulator helps ensure accurate, repeatable testing and provides confidence that the resulting immunity evaluations satisfy the requirements for product qualification, compliance, and certification.
ESD simulators can be shipped via standard parcel carriers, including FedEx, UPS, and other major shipping providers. We can ship using your preferred carrier account, or we can prepay the shipping through our FedEx account and add the shipping charges to your rental invoice.
Yes. All ESD Simulators we rent will include both air and contact discharge tips used for the different test methods.
All ESD simulators in our rental inventory come standard with current annual ISO 17025 calibrations, unless stated otherwise. We include this at no additional cost. This is required by some customers, as well as ensuring the equipment operates within the tolerances of the underlying standard.
Yes, we handle rent-to-own and buyout options on a case-by-case basis. Please contact our team prior to renting if you're interested at info@ts-emc.com.
Most ESD simulators in our rental inventory are designed for testing commercial applications to IEC 61000-4-2; however we do carry some models that provide testing solutions for more specialized automotive, military, and aerospace applications. If you have a particular requirement or standard you're looking to conduct testing to, reach out to our team for assistance.
