Digital Electromagnetic Field Indicators

Measure the strength of magnetic fields, electric fields, and radio frequencies at the same time. To detect emissions, just point these meters at the electrical equipment you want to test, such as a cable. When they detect high levels that could damage sensitive equipment, an alert appears in red and an audible alarm sounds. Their color LCD display shows readings, bar graphs, and trending graphs.

These indicators store up to 20 radio frequency readings. Send readings to your PC using a USB cable (not included).

High-Accuracy Flow and Temperature Transmitters

Also known as magmeters, these transmitters use a magnetic field to measure flow rate and temperature with high accuracy. Because they use a magnetic field, they only work with conductive liquids, such as water. These transmitters, also known as transducers, convert measurements to an electrical signal that can be interpreted by receiving devices, such as remote displays and programmable logic controllers (PLCs) to monitor flow or control equipment. For your receiving device to interpret the signal, you will need to calibrate it for the measurement range and output signal of the transmitter. As flow or temperature increases, the output signal increases. These transmitters have one analog output for flow and another for temperature. They only give accurate readings within the rated measurement range. A digital display makes it easy to view readings and adjust settings at the source. Mount these transmitters inline with your pipe system. They measure flow correctly in any mounting orientation.

These transmitters are calibrated with water. They can only be used with liquids with a conductivity of at least 20 µS/cm.

Calibrated-Dial Magnetic Field Indicators


	Protective Case

Calibrated at 72° F. In addition to measuring the strength of a magnetic field in gauss, these indicators also measure the direction of a magnetic field in positive/negative. To take a measurement, place the lower edge of the indicator near or against your tools and parts.
