Magnetometer NOVOTEST MF-1M Caution! Please read this operating manual carefully before using the Magnetometer NOVOTEST MF-1M. This operating manual (hereinafter referred to as OM) includes the information required to inform user about the performance and operating procedure of the product, magnetometer NOVOTEST MF- 1M (hereinafter referred to as the device or magnetometer).
1 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION OF THE DEVICE AND ITS COMPONENTS 1.1 Purpose Magnetometer (teslameter) NOVOTEST MF-1M is designed to measure magnetic field strength (magnetic induction). The device is used in industrial and construction fields. The magnetometer is designed to test the following parameters: −...
Protective silicone case ......................1 pc. Charger ............................ 1 pc. Operating manual RDC.OD.MF-1M.000 OM ................ 1 pc. Transport packaging ........................ 1 pc. * By request of the customer, the package can be added by extra equipment or parts. The exact information about the scope of delivery is specified in the datasheet.
Х – linear Hall element; ADC – analog-to-digital converter; M – microprocessor controller; G – graphic display; PS – power source. Figure 1.2 – Schematic stricture of magnetometer NOVOTEST MF-1M The Hall element converts the magnitude of the magnetic field into a voltage which is fed to the input of analog-to-digital converter “ADC”.
Operating manual Magnetometer NOVOTEST MF-1M Figure 1.3 – The readings depending on the passing of the magnetic induction vector through the Hall probe. The positive reading of the magnetometer means that the normal component of the induction vector of a constant magnetic field at the measurement point goes outside the working surface of the magnetic field transducer.
Operating manual Magnetometer NOVOTEST MF-1M 2 INTENDED USE 2.1 Operating restrictions The device should be operated away from direct exposure to dust and aggressive environments with consideration of the parameters of the test objects under the agreed technical requirements and used within its specifications.
Operating manual Magnetometer NOVOTEST MF-1M 2.2.4 Hall probe connection Connect the Hall probe via the connecting cable to the probe socket on the processing unit. Connect the connecting cable so that the red dot on the plug and the connector are aligned (fig. 2.2).
Operating manual Magnetometer NOVOTEST MF-1M Note – Connection and disconnection from the processing unit are allowed only with the magnetometer powered on. 2.3 Operation 2.3.1 Turning on Turning on is performed by pressing “ ” until a short screensaver appears on the graphic display (fig.
Operating manual Magnetometer NOVOTEST MF-1M Note – The CODE scale is used for calibration by the manufacturer. Figure 2.8 – Selection of measurement units Select the needed measurement unit by “ ” and “ ” and press “ ”. The selected measurement unit is shown on the graphic display of the device.
Operating manual Magnetometer NOVOTEST MF-1M Figure 2.11 – The graphic scheme of the device operation The threshold level and range are set in the “Settings” section. If the threshold of the measured value is exceeded, the sound signal is generated (the signal can be disabled in the “Settings” section).
Operating manual Magnetometer NOVOTEST MF-1M Figure 2.15 – “Calibration” section The current value of the code The calculated value of the function (polynomial) Figure 2.16 – “Calibration” section A magnetometer shall be calibrated by four points: 0 G, + 999 G, -999 G, and 500 G with the magnetic inductometer SH1-1: 1.
Operating manual Magnetometer NOVOTEST MF-1M 2.3.6 “Settings” section When the “Setting” section is selected, the device goes to its settings (fig. 2.19). Figure 2.19 – “Settings” section 2.3.6.2 The device settings This menu features the setting of the following parameters (fig. 2.20): −...
