An electrostatic fieldmeter, also called a static meter is a tool used in the static control industry. It is used for non-contact measurement of electrostatic charge on an object. It measures the force between the induced charges in a sensor and the charge present on the surface of an object.
In analytical electrochemistry, coulometry is the measure of charge transfer during an electrochemical redox reaction. [1] It can be used for precision measurements of charge, but coulometry is mainly used for analytical applications to determine the amount of matter transformed. [2] There are two main categories of coulometric techniques.
Battery tester. A battery tester is an electronic device intended for testing the state of an electric battery, going from a simple device for testing the charge actually present in the cells and/or its voltage output, to a more comprehensive testing of the battery's condition, namely its capacity for accumulating charge and any possible flaws affecting the battery's performance and security.
The charge control consists of a pressure switch built into the cell, which disconnects the charging current when the internal cell pressure rises above a certain limit; usually 200 pounds per square inch (1.4 MPa) to 300 pounds per square inch (2.1 MPa). This prevents overcharging and damage to the cell.
The alternating current signal produced by the flow of this charge is amplified and used as an analogue for the DC voltage applied to the capacitor. The DC input resistance of the electrometer is determined solely by the leakage resistance of the capacitor, and is typically extremely high, (although its AC input impedance is lower).
The inner electrode, which is electrically isolated from the shield, is connected to a meter to measure the charge. [1] In the field of semiconductor design, a coulombmeter consists of a meter used in combination with a metal probe tip to pinpoint locations of excess charge on, for instance a semiconductor device. This application of a ...
In practice the conductivity cell is calibrated by using solutions of known specific resistance, ρ*, so the individual quantities l and A need not be known precisely, but only their ratio. [11] If the resistance of the calibration solution is R * , a cell-constant, defined as the ratio of l and A ( C = l ⁄ A ), is derived.
An EMF meter is a scientific instrument for measuring electromagnetic fields (abbreviated as EMF). Most meters measure the electromagnetic radiation flux density (DC fields) or the change in an electromagnetic field over time (AC fields), essentially the same as a radio antenna, but with quite different detection characteristics.
