ACL Staticide, ACL 306, Two-Point Resistance Meter with Case
ACL Staticide ACL 306 Two-Point Resistance Meter with Case
The ACL 306 handheld Two-Point Resistance Meter offers an all-in-one ESD resistance testing solution for applications where a full megohmmeter or bulky electrode setup is impractical. Portable and lightweight, it is ideal for testing ESD packaging with nooks and recesses, DIP tubes, trays, and small assembly line components. Metal spring-loaded pogo pins may be used with or without conductive rubber boots, and the color LED logarithmic scale provides quick, easy resistance readings across the full ESD-relevant range.
Verify each decade with the ACL 307 Checker Board. Made in USA. Includes calibration certificate.

Technical Documentation
Frequently Asked Questions
What does the ACL 306 measure?
The ACL 306 measures surface and volume resistance across a range of 10³ to 10¹² ohms using two spring-loaded pogo pin probes. It is designed for ESD resistance verification of packaging materials, trays, DIP tubes, and small assembly line components.
Does the ACL 306 replace a megohmmeter?
For many routine ESD verification tasks, yes. The ACL 306 is a self-contained two-point checker that eliminates the need for separate probe cables or a full megohmmeter setup. For precision lab-grade measurements or surface resistivity per ANSI/ESD standards, the ACL 395 or ACL 800 megohmmeters may be more appropriate.
What is the ACL 307 Checker Board?
The ACL 307 is a verification board used to confirm the ACL 306 is reading accurately across each resistance decade. It is recommended for quality control programs that require documented meter verification.
Does the ACL 306 include a carrying case?
Yes — the ACL 306 ships with a carrying case and a calibration certificate.
Is the ACL 306 made in the USA?
Yes — the ACL 306 is manufactured in the USA by ACL Staticide.
