I agree, your client _probably_ meant air, but better to ask. Nevertheless, as I recall, NoiseKen makes an ESD tester that does 16kV contact / 30kV air. http://www.noiseken.com/english/equip/equip.htm Also, there seems to be a Haefely model -- PESD 3000 -- that offers 25kV contact / 30kV air(?): http://www.compliancesys.com/transientsystems.htm There are probably other products, and most certainly other vendors/distributors. (This was the first one my web search engine came up with.) Online lists of vendors include: http://rbitem.com/products/default.asp USUAL DISCLAIMERS APPLY! For information only.
