    INTRODUCTION Introduction The TESCO RF Meter combines all the features needed for fast, accurate measurements of electromagnetic fields. This instrument was designed to measure RF, but also could measure electric and magnetic fields. The RF (Radio/Microwave) setting can detect up to three billion Hz (3 GHz), which lets you gauge radio-wave power, cellular phone equipment, microwave and many types of RF emitting household and industrial equipment.

  • Page 8: Measurement Settings

    MEASUREMENT SETTINGS Hold the meter as shown (see Figure 1). Do not cover the top of the meter. This prevents your hand from shielding electric fields or microwaves. Normally, the indoor RADIO/MICROWAVE (RF) reading should be near zero in most parts of a home or office and will most certainly be zero if you cup your hand in front of the antenna or place the meter in a metal box.

    OPERATIONS MANUAL B. Weighted (E-W) To measure the effect of an electric field on the human body, turn the knob to the E-W setting and hold the meter at the location to be measured. Your body can easily shield electric fields; the reading is lower if you cover the top surface of the meter with your hand.

Recalibration is not required within 10 years; however, if a recalibration certification compliant with ISO 17025 is required, the meter must be certified at least once a year in order to remain in compliance with that standard.
