    BARTINGTON INSTRUMENTS 3. Introduction Both the Mag648 and Mag649™ are magnetometers consisting of a cluster of three, feedback stabilised, fluxgate sensors arranged along X, Y and Z axes. Each axis provides a highly linear magnetic response, with low hysteresis and low crosstalk between axes. These characteristics, combined with the compact design and very low power consumption, make these magnetometers ideally suited for perimeter surveillance within a multi-sensor network.

    5. Connections 5.1. Cable Recommendations The Mag648 and Mag649™ electronics board provides balanced output lines for analogue signal transmission. Suitable shielded cables can be supplied. Cables are particularly prone to wear and damage if twisted, flexed beyond their design limits, or subjected to excessive or repeated movement.
  • Page 6: Mounting Recommendations

    The analogue output of the sensors as well as the power supply connectors are available on the outline drawing DR2389. Where no Bartington power supply or acquisition unit is used, some basic recommendation for integration of the sensor are available in AN0042.

    BARTINGTON INSTRUMENTS 6.2. Electromagnetic Compatibility Note: The Mag648 and Mag649™ sensors are not shielded for immunity from, or emission of, electromagnetic fields. 7. Troubleshooting The sensor is unlikely to suffer any defects in normal use: no internal components are serviceable. The most likely causes of failure, and their solutions, are detailed in the following table.

    (at least twice the breakthrough frequency). 8. Care and Maintenance Surface dirt contamination on the Mag648 and Mag649™ probe should be removed using a mild detergent solution only. Electronics should be cleaned with an antistatic cloth only. ESD protection should be used when handling the electronics board, to prevent irreparable damage.
