Antistatic Test at 100V on Ball Valve
Antistatic Test at 100V on Ball Valve
(OP)
Good morning,
can someone help us about how to perform Antistatic Test at 100 V d.c. on Ball Valves? Normally, this test is performed using a power source not exceeding 12 V d.c. but in this case the power source is to be 100 V d.c.
Alternatively, our client asks to perform the same test on a test sample. How to perform this test also in a safe condition?
Many Thanks in advance for your prompt reply.

100 Vdc test is normally done for shoes and other type of insulation to prove it does not conduct static electricity. I cannot think for any reason why someone would want to check that there cannot be any electrical flow path between a ball, stem, and body. There are pretty tight metal-to-metal clearances in the assembly where arcs will most likely occur.
The requirement just does not make sense.
