A gaussmeter, also called a magnetometer or EMF meter, is a precision device built to measure the strength and often the direction of a magnetic field. These test and measurement instruments offer accurate, real-time readings in units of Gauss or Tesla, ensuring equipment safety and validating magnetic field sources. A gauss meter features a gauss probe, a cable, and a meter and comes in both handheld and benchtop models, measuring static (DC) and dynamic (AC) magnetic fields at different frequencies. Our selections include precision instruments from reputable manufacturers like Hirst Magnetics, Eclipse, Chauvin Arnoux, and more.
Why Buy a Magnetometer?
Purchasing a gaussmeter provides numerous benefits. They provide reliable data needed to make informed decisions, detect faults early, and maintain high standards of safety and performance. They come with clear-to-read displays, are accurate, easy to use, cost-effective, and ensure the safety and functionality of various components.
View Our Best-in-Class Gauss Meters:
We offer a range of high-quality gaussmeters tailored to different needs. Our collections include:
- Hand Gaussmeters – These are user-friendly portable Tesla meters designed for on-the-spot magnetic field measurements. A hand gaussmeter boasts high accuracy and clear digital displays and often features functionalities like peak hold and data logging for convenient field analysis.
- Scalar Gauss Meters – These instruments measure the overall strength or magnitude of a magnetic field at a specific point, regardless of its direction. They provide a single value representing the magnetic flux density.
- Vector Gaussmeters – Unlike scalar types, vector gaussmeters measure the magnetic field in multiple dimensions (typically three axes: X, Y, and Z). This allows the determination of both the strength and the direction of the magnetic field.
Typical Uses of Gaussmeters:
Gaussmeters find applications across a wide spectrum of fields, including:
- Industrial Quality Control
- Electronics and Electrical Engineering
- Medical Field
- Geophysics and Environmental Science
- Archaeology
- Aerospace and Automotive Industries
- Research and Development
- Security Checkpoints.
