BARTINGTON INSTRUMENTS 3. Introduction Figure 1. Mag900 & Mag901. The Mag900 & Mag901 is an unpackaged, three-axis, low power sensor intended for customer system integration. Technical specifications for the Mag900 & Mag901 are provided in datasheet DS4550. Page 4 of 10... -
Page 5: Overview
Internal regulation of the power supply ensures the Mag900 & Mag901 is suitable for battery powered operation, over both long and short cables (subject to the minimum supply voltage specified in datasheet DS4550). -
Page 6: Installation
5.3. Mounting The Mag900 & Mag901 sensor assembly should be mounted in a stress-free manner using the six mounting holes on the PCB. Dimensions and locations of the holes are shown in outline drawing DR4576. -
Page 7: Pre-Installation Tests
BARTINGTON INSTRUMENTS 5.5. Pre-Installation Tests Prior to the installation into the customer’s system, the Mag900 & Mag901 must be fully tested to ensure correct function as follows: Caution: Take care to avoid bending or otherwise damaging the contacts whilst conducting the tests. -
Page 8: Operating Instructions
If this occurs, the offset will exhibit drift as it returns to its original offset specification. Caution: Subjecting the Mag900 & Mag901 to fields in excess of 2 x the nominal range may cause inaccuracy in future measurements. Degaussing the sensor can reverse such an effect. -
Page 9: Storage & Transport
Caution: Do not expose this instrument to strong magnetic fields while being stored. Caution: Take particular care when cleaning around electrical connections. Bent or damaged pins may cause the Mag900 & Mag901 to malfunction. 10. Environmental Precautions Refer to datasheet DS4550 for maximum environmental, electrical and mechanical ratings. - Page 10 ®The copyright of this document is the property of Bartington Instruments Ltd.
