ALPHALAB MODEL GM2 GAUSS METER

The Model GM2 Measures the strength and polarity of magnetic field up to 30kG when using a standard probes, or 800 gauss ( resolution 0.01 gauss) if an HS probe is used. Functions include DC, AC and peak hold along with a user-adjustable alarm which has three modes of operation. DC background field can be subtracted out either by pressing “ Relative Zero” or by manually adjusting the offset. The meter includes battery, AC adapter analog output jack and calibration certificate. If a standard probe is used, resolution is 0.1 gauss up to 19, 999.9 gauss, which is stronger than the field of any permanent magnet. This 5 ½ digit display allows measurement of tiny difference in strong fields. Above 20kG the meter autoranges to a 30kG range. Interchangeable probes are available at two sensitivity levels: standard to 30k gauss and HS ( resolution 0.01 gauss) ; these are available in universal ( bendable) , axial and transverse shape. Choice of one probe is included with the meter Features: High dynamic range: can measure even a small variation in a large DC, AC or peak magnetic field. Programmable alarm will sound either if field exceeds a level you set or if the field is between lower and upper levels you set. Intuitive to use with rapid turn on, fast update. Begin reading DC field, AC f field, or peak field just by turning the knob. No setup or calibration required. Peak hold function shows the highest DC level with fast 0.002 sec capture window; also displays polarity of the peak. Interchangeable probes: range 30k G with ST probes; 800 G ( 0.01 G resolution) with HS probes. Runs on battery or AC adapter ( included) . Includes analog output connector, certificate of calibration. CE Compliant. Applications: The ST-Probe measures all magnets, DC/ AC electromagnets and solenoids. With the HS-Probe, parts can be rapidly scanned for residual magnetism. An alarm can be set to sound is any region exceeds a set threshold. “ Peak hold” functions shows the maximum magnetism. Measures background ( including Earth) field direction and strength, both DC and AC. Using the AC adapter, meter can be left on permanently to capture the peak field value ( if at least 0.002 seconds in duration) ; can be read at any future time.
