Introduction
Introduction
The Protective Clothing Resistance Tester is designed to evaluate the electrostatic properties of anti-static workwear and fabrics. It accurately measures surface resistivity and resistance through the material, ensuring compliance with national, European, and international standards. The instrument is equipped with the TEST V1.6 dedicated software, which enables online operation, automatic testing according to standard protocols, data processing, and report generation.
This tester is widely used in textile quality control, safety garment manufacturing, research institutions, and laboratories to ensure anti-static clothing meets safety and performance requirements.

FAQ
1. What types of clothing can be tested with this instrument?
It is suitable for anti-static workwear, laboratory coats, protective fabrics, and any textile materials requiring electrostatic performance evaluation.
2. Can the tester measure both surface and vertical resistance?
Yes. With optional electrodes, it can measure surface resistivity (point-to-point) and vertical resistance through the material.
3. Does it support automatic testing?
Yes. When connected to TEST V1.6 software, the instrument can automatically complete tests, process results, and generate reports.
4. What is the measurement range and accuracy?
Resistance range: 10⁴ Ω – 10¹⁶ Ω. Accuracy depends on the range: <1G ±1%, ≥1G ±3%, ≥1T ±10%.
5. What standards does this tester comply with?
It meets major Chinese (GB/T), European (EN 1149), and American (AATCC 76, ANSI/ESD STM2.1) anti-static clothing standards.
