2.2 Application
Quite often routine operation, maintenance and service work has to be done in areas where
active electromagnetic fields are present, e.g., in broadcasting stations, etc. Additionally, other
employees may be exposed to electromagnetic radiation. In such cases, it is essential that
personnel are not exposed to dangerous levels of electromagnetic radiation, such as:
❑
High frequency (RF) electromagnetic wave field strength measurement.
❑
Mobil phone base station antenna radiation power density measurement.
❑
Wireless communication applications (CW, TDMA, GSM, DECT).
❑
RF power measurement for transmitters.
❑
Wireless LAN (Wi-Fi) detection, installation.
❑
Spy camera, wireless bug finder.
❑
Cellular/Cordless phone radiation safety level.
❑
Microwave oven leakage detection.
❑
Personal living environment EMF safety.
2.3 Features
The meter is a broadband device for monitoring high-frequency radiation in the range from
10MHz
to 8GHz
. The non-directional electric field and high sensitivity also allow measurements of
electric field strength in TEM cells and absorber rooms.
The unit of measurement and the measurement types have been selected to expressed in units of
electrical and magnetic field strength and power density.
At high frequencies, the power density is of particular significance.
It provides a measure of the power absorbed by a person exposed to the field. This power level
must be kept as low as possible at high frequencies.
The meter can be set to display the instantaneous value or the maximum value measured.
Instantaneous and maximum value measurements are useful for orientation, e.g. when first
entering an exposed area.
❑
10MHz to 8GHz Frequency range
❑
For isotropic measurements of electromagnetic fields
❑
Non-directional (isotropic) measurement with three-channel measurement sensor.
❑
High dynamic range due to three-channel digital results processing.
❑
Configurable alarm threshold and memory function
❑
Use rechargeable lithium-ion battery pack
❑
LCD backlight function
❑
Easy & safety to use
