Fluxmaster

The FLUXMASTER is a very compact hand-held instrument which has been designed for accurate measurements of weak magnetic fields from 0.1 nT (nanotesla) to 200 AuT. The instrument operates on the fluxgate principle. It consists of a cylindrical sensor which is connected with the electronics unit via a 1.5 m cable.

The Fluxmaster is optimized for low offset, low noise and high stability. The magnitude of the measured magnetic field component can be read in AuT from from a 4 1/2 digit LC-display. Three full scale ranges are selectable.

With the FLUXMASTER one can measure DC fields (e. g. the Eartha s field) and AC
magnetic fields (e. g. powerline fields). For AC-field measurements an AC-voltmeter
or an oscilloscope may be connected to the analog output. The voltage at the analog
output follows magnetic fields up to a frequency of more than 1 kHz. Dynamic or
servo-controlled shielding solutions can be easily realized by using the analog output.
The automatic neutralization circuitry permits the user to cancel out the local ambient magnetic field by just pressing a switch. This simplifies the measurement of small variations about the ambient magnetic field.

As a special feature the FLUXMASTER is provided with a robust waterproof case (protection IP65) and is therefore well suited to outdoor applications
