Narda Safety Test Solutions premiered the new Magnetometer THM1176-PDA at Arbeitsschutz aktuell 2008. The device, which consists of a high-performance PDA and a precision, non-directional probe connected via USB, can be used as a stand-alone hand-held unit or in conjunction with a PC. It measures magnetic fields having flux densities of up to 20 Tesla in the frequency range from 0 Hz to 1 kHz.
The product can be used anywhere where high magnetic field strengths need to be measured and monitored: on scientific and medical equipment, such as magnetic resonance tomographs; in industry on equipment for smelting metals, or on transformer stations and large-scale electric motor drives, such as railroad locomotives.
