HIRST IFM02 Integrating Fluxmeter

The Fluxmeter is specifically for measuring Magnetic Flux Linkage where a surface reading with a Gaussmeter is not sufficient.

 

The Fluxmeter is a static solution to characterising components with high accuracy and where the total flux influences its performance.

 

The IFM02 Fluxmeter has automatic and manual drift correction available and can be used in environments where rapid measurements are necessary.  RS232, USB and PLC interfaces are included as standard.  Full instrument control is possible via these interfaces enabling full factory automation.

 

The IFM02 can measure magnetic flux, magnetic flux density or magnetic field strength.

 

Multi Language Support - The built-in menu system can be operated in any of the following languages; English, French, German, Spanish, Italian and Portuguese.

 

Automatic Identification - Search coil supplied by Hirst Magnetic Instruments Ltd can be pre-programmed with Serial Number and Area turns product for automatic probe identification and system set-up. Additional  blank probe plugs can be purchased for user pickup coils that  can also store turns area product for automatic set-up of user  created pickup coils.

 

PLC Interface - The PLC interface offers a simple method for the control and integration of the IFM02 into existing equipment. 24v logic signals are available to start measurements and to return the results of pass window testing.

 

Communications - The IFM02 support communications via either RS232 or USB. Base driver software is supplied with example applications (complied for WIN32 systems), source code and protocol documentation. With USB data can be captured at up to 10,000 samples per second in raw PCM format.

 

Extra Options Available - Pickup coil manufacture and custom design

 

Pickup coils designed specifically for your application and use with the IFM02 can be designed and built by Hirst Magnetic Instruments Ltd.

 

Custom application software - Custom application software can be provided to interface the IFM02 via either the RS232 or USB port.
