Smart Fieldmeter® Digital

 

 Electromagnetic field monitor having flexible and expandable architecture, state of the art design with convenience and simplicity for users on a budget.

 

 Smart Fieldmeter® Digital (SFD)

Features:

•  SFD can operate with multiple probes, both current and future models.  Calibration factors for multiple probes are stored internally and can be updated from SD card by the user.

 

•  Extremely large SFD dynamic range with auto-ranging function offers high accuracy and simple operation without any additional switching.

 

•  Advanced programmable data sampling with time averaging and spatial averaging allows monitoring and recording of time variable signals to comply with various RF safety and regulatory standards.

 

•  Internal data logging with removable memory card provides programmable and practically unlimited data storage.  No PC is needed for data recording - log the data and read it later.

 

•  Unique auto-zero function can be operated either automatically or manually even in the presence of the strongest RF fields, thus ensuring the high sensitivity and long term stability.

 

•  Serial bidirectional data port with optically decoupled or fiber optic converters can be used for PC data transfer and instrument control in test system integration.

 

•  IR remote control allows SFD control and operation from a distance - no hands, no wires.

 

•  Sound alarm with variable threshold warns if the preset level is exceeded.

 

  Portable lightweight design with detachable isotropic probe and standard battery (two AA primary or rechargeable cells) offers flexibility and advantages in the field.

 

•  SFD can display the data both in field strength and power density units.

 

•  Bright color OLED display can be set do display only the information important to the user.  Maximized display mode ensures good visibility from a distance.

 

•  User friendly interface puts all frequently done functions at the upper screens making them easy to find and to use.
