The 3M

™

ScanEM-QC Electromagnetic Near-Field Probe provides both AC

and DC outputs. The ScanEM-QC Probes serve as: broadband amplified
probes for a spectrum analyzer, as non-contact high-bandwidth voltage
(3M

™

ScanEM-EQC Probe) and current (3M

™

ScanEM-HQC Probes) probes

for an oscilloscope and as broadband field strength probes for a multimeter.

The ScanEM-QC Electromagnetic Near-Field Probes can:

Provide means of testing each and every product you ship to a customer
for compliance with emission regulations

Predict radiated EMC test results

Pre-test your product prior to an official compliance test in order to
identify potential problems early

Quickly troubleshoot a product that has failed a compliance test

Find EM leakage on enclosures, cables and connectors

Find sources of EM interference

Show the presence of a high-frequency signal on a cable or wire
without contact

Observe ESD Events both in the air and in the cables and ground planes
using oscilloscope

Work as amplified near-field probes when connected to a
spectrum analyzer

Work as non-contact high-bandwidth voltage and current
oscilloscope probes

Work as field-strength probes when used with a multimeter
