All Campbell Scientific products are Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) tested to
ensure that in the event of a static discharge neither the equipment nor the data
is damaged or lost. Campbell Scientific ESD tested several brands of cards,
only the Silicon Systems cards passed this testing. Campbell Scientific
recommends that only Silicon Systems cards be used with Campbell Scientific
CRBasic dataloggers. It is not necessary to purchase the cards directly from
Campbell Scientific, as long as the Silicon Systems card model number
matches Table C-4.
