The Elimstat Continuous Monitor sends out a signal through the wrist strap that detects the capacitance of the person and ground. When both are present, the monitor goes into an unalarmed state. If the electrical connection to the person or to ground should fail, the circuit will go into the alarm state to signal there is a problem.
ANSI/ESD S1.1Annex A.3: Daily (wrist strap system) testing may be omitted if constant monitoring is used.
ESD HandbookESD TR20.20section 5.3.2.4.4: Typical Test programs recommend that wrist straps that are used daily should be tested daily. However, if the products that are being produced are of such value that knowledge of a continuous, reliable ground is needed, then continuous monitoring should be considered or even required.
