Application Description:
LEMI-018 vector magnetometer for the precise measurement of Earth’s magnetic field and its variations at laboratory and land conditions as well as in geomagnetic observatory is produced on the base of flux-gate sensor, all three components of which are implemented in the same body. It consists of two units – a sensor unit with adjustable or suspended support and an electronic unit both connected by a long cable. The electronic unit allows automated operation – acquisition, processing, and storage of data about magnetic field and their variations and transmission at request to the external user via an RS232 interface or by FLASH card replacing. Built-in GPS receiver provides satellite synchronization of the internal clock and the coordinates of magnetometer location. It allows organizing the synchronous operation of a set of magnetometers installed at the studied area. The considerable volume of internal non-volatile memory for data recording and small power consumption permits the use of the magnetometer for long-term autonomous measurements in land conditions. Other options, e.g., tilt-compensated sensor version (on the figure), for observatory and laboratory use, hermetic version, etc. exist too.

Highlights:
Low Power Consumption
