Model 2100 Gaussmeter/Teslameter
Description
The Model 2100 Gaussmeter is a fully featured, high-end Gaussmeter with a low cost Gaussmeter price. It is a compact, high accuracy, microprocessor controlled, flux density measuring instrument. The Model 2100 is capable of measuring static (DC), alternating (AC), or pulsed magnetic fields. Twelve measurement ranges allow the operator to configure the meter for maximum resolution and accuracy from 300mG (30 microTesla) to 300 kG (30 Tesla). Selecting primary measurement functions is quick and easy with dedicated front panel function keys. An easy-to-use menu allows access to user defined parameters such as upper and lower magnetic limits and relative magnetic measurements. Remote meter configuration is completely accessible using the built in RS-232 Interface or optional IEEE-488 Interface.
Model 2100 Gaussmeter Probes 
The Model 2100 is designed to allow maximum flexibility in the use of Hall Probes. Probes supplied for the Model 2100 use a memory chip (EEPROM) that automatically allows the Model 2100 to correct for Hall Probe Element inaccuracies. Probes incorporating temperature sensors are also available. These probes will provide automatic temperature compensation in conjunction with the user defined Hall Probe Temperature Correction feature. The Model 2100 is compatible with probes not using a memory chip (EEPROM). Eight selectable Hall Probe Excitation Currents are available. With a simple connector conversion and a new calibration number, many probes manufactured by Magnetic Instrumentation can be used with this unit without returning it to our factory. However, for optimum accuracy, the probe can be returned for installation of a memory chip (EEPROM). Magnetic Instrumentation offers a wide selection of both axial and transverse probes to measure many different magnet configurations. A Probe Data Sheet is available on request.
