The display shows up to 30.0 kV. If you see OL (Overload), you are too close to a very high charge (or the battery is low).

Static electricity poses a constant threat in electronics manufacturing, packaging, and cleanroom environments. Measuring electrostatic charges accurately is the first line of defense against Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) damage. The SIMCO FMX-002 electrostatic fieldmeter is a lightweight, compact, and highly reliable instrument designed to locate and measure these charges.
