MAGNETIC FIELD GENERATOR
SERIAL NUMBER OF THE INSTRUMENT
You can find the Series Number on the rear panel of the instrument.
Series Number is in the form: 0000X00000.
The first four digits and the letter are the Series Number prefix, the last five digits
are the Series Number suffix. The prefix is the same for identical instruments, it
changes only when a configuration change is made to the instrument.
The suffix is different for each instrument.

  • Page 22 Using the [+] and [-] keys it is possible to set a test level in the range 1 - 100 A/m. Pressing the CAL button the PMM 1008 will do a calibration of the output current level. With this operation the instrument will move the internal motor variac to set the correct current;...
  • Page 23 I is the current flowing into the loop and f is the antenna factor (0,87 for a square loop of 1m × 1m). Starting the test, after pressed the [ON] key, the PMM 1008 will move the internal variac at the position stored during the calibration ; from this position the generator will regulate the position of the variac to obtain the correct output current.
