Page 3: About This Manual
This document describes the installation, operation and maintenance of the Mag628, Mag629 and Mag669 three-axis aerospace magnetometers.It should be read in conjunction with product brochure DS2808, which can be found on the product page on the Bartington Instruments website at www.bartington.com. -
Page 4: Introduction To Mag628, Mag629 And Mag669
The electronics of Mag628 and Mag669 are un-encapsulated and must be installed within the customer’s electronics enclosure to provide environmental and EMC protection. -

4. Installing the Mag628, Mag629 and Mag669 4.1. Siting the Magnetometer (Environment Recommendations) In whatever situation the Mag628, Mag629 or Mag669 is to be installed it is important to avoid, or compensate for, local magnetic effects. In general: • Site the magnetometer several tens of metres from very large ferromagnetic objects that could become magnetised and create fields exceeding the measuring range of the sensor. -
Page 6: Connection Recommendations
Note: The cable between the sensor head and electronics module of the Mag629 is an integral part of the sensor head and cannot be modified except at Bartington Instruments. Note: To connect your Mag629 to a data acquisition unit via a recommended mating connector, you will need to refer to outline drawing DR2591 for cable and connector details, pinouts, etc. -
Page 7: Pre-Installation Tests
BARTINGTON INSTRUMENTS 4.2.2. Pre-Installation Tests Mag628 and Mag669 Prior to the assembly of the system the connection to the motherboard must be checked as follows: 1. Check the power supply voltages to be ± 15V (± 5%) using a voltmeter. -
Page 8: Mounting Recommendations
Refer to the mechanical drawings on the product page on the Bartington Instruments website. The sensor can also mounted on the Bartington Instruments Mag-TA Tripod Adaptor using the Mag-TA Product Adaptor mounting plate. See datasheet DS3140 for instructions on how to do this. -
Page 9: Post Installation Testing
When the sensor and electronics are installed and power is applied, the following checks can be made: 1. The ‘test’ output (Mag628 and Mag669: PL1 pin 9) is open circuit (normally pulled to a positive voltage by a resistor). 2. Each of the analogue outputs will register a voltage equivalent to the earth’s magnetic field. -

BARTINGTON INSTRUMENTS 6. Troubleshooting Your Mag628, Mag629 or Mag669 are unlikely to suffer any defects in normal use. Neither the electronics nor the sensor head are user serviceable. As the sensor head and the electronics assembly are matched, in the event of damage to either, return both to Bartington Instruments. -
Page 11: Care And Maintenance
Use appropriate PPE, such as eye protection, when carrying out this task. 7.2. Calibration Return the Mag628, Mag629 or Mag669 to Bartington Instruments for calibration at the recommended intervals. Refer to the Calibration Certificate for further details. Page 11 of 13... -
