  • Page 3: Introduction

    3-Axis RF Field Strength Meter/ English Introduction: IM-195 is designed for measuring Radio Frequency (RF) electromagnetic field strength and the monitor range is from 50MHz to 3.5GHz with triple axis X, Y and Z isotropic sensors. It is used to indicate electromagnetic pollution generated by cellular phone tower antenna, wireless internet, microwave ovens, cellular phones and cordless phones, etc.

    3-Axis RF Field Strength Meter/ English Electromagnetic fields propagate as waves and travel at the speed of light (C). The wavelength is proportional to the frequency: (Wavelength) = C (speed of light) / f (frequency) If the distance to the field source is less than three wavelengths, then we are usually in the near field.

    3-Axis RF Field Strength Meter/ English Safety: CAUTION Be extremely careful for the following conditions while measuring.  Do not operate the meter in the environment with explosive gas (material), combustible gas (material) steam or filled with dust.  In order to avoid reading incorrect data, please replace the battery immediately when the symbol appears on the LCD.
  • Page 8 3-Axis RF Field Strength Meter/ English Important: If the sensor is moved quickly, excessive field strength values could be displayed. This effect is caused by electrostatic charges. Short-term measurements Use either the “instantaneous” or the “Max instantaneous” mode, if the characteristics and orientation of the field are unknown when entering an area exposed to electromagnetic radiation.
