ALPHALAB MODEL VGM GAUSS METER

The model VGM is designed for rapid identification and measurement of areas that are magnetized. It is a DC gaussmeter with X, Y and Z sensors at the end of a probe. It displays the magnitude of the field and the X, Y, and Z components, showing both the actual values and the peak values of all the variables. In addition, whenever the field magnitude exceeds a value that you set, an alarm sounds and lights up, and a " logic high" signal appears at the output jack. The meter is shipped ready-to-use, and includes a rubber boot with flip-down foot, 9-volt battery, AC adapter and calibration certificate. This meter is optimized to measure magnetized parts; its range of 799.99 gauss is not high enough to measure the surface of most permanent magnets. Specifications: Range/ Resolution: 0-799.99 G/ 0.01 G. Includes polarity of X, Y, Z. Magnitude = is sqrt of sum of squares. Accuracy: 1% of reading ( 16° to 29° C) , 2% of reading ( -4° to 65° C) Pointing accuracy 1% of arc. Offsets: Relative zero ( subtracts present field from X, Y, Z) ; Unlimited manual offset of X, Y, Z. Probe: 3-axis nondetachable 6.3 x 6.3 x 50 mm long. All three sensors are within 1.5 mm of probe end. Peak Hold: 0.005 sec time constant. Peaks in X, Y, Z and magnitude are recorded and stored separately. Alarm: Associated with magnitude only, 5 millisecond response time; Simultaneous red light. Alarm Levels: 100 levels can be selected, from 1.00 to 790.00 G Meter Size: 5.8 x 3.8 x 2.0 inches ( includes boot) ; 147 x 97 x 51 mm Weight: 11.7 oz Battery: 9 volt alkaline ( ~ 10 hour life) / " Low Battery" indicator.
