Ametes MFS-3A 3-axis Magnetic Field Sensor
The high magnetic field sensitivity, accurate calibration, high stability and high signal output of the Sentron CSA-1VG Hall effect IC enable it to be conveniently used to monitor the extended fields from magnetic items and electric equipment. As a demonstration of the CSA-1VG capability, three CSA-1VG with sensitive axes mutually perpendicular, are combined in a compact module as the MFS-3A Three Axis Magnetic Field Sensor. Three output voltages VX = S*Bx, Vy = S*By and Vz = S*Bz are generated proportional to the magnetic flux density components Bx, By and Bz with the sensitivity S = 280mV/mT over the field range of ±7.3mT. This enables calculation of the total magnetic flux density,
B = (Bx2 + By2 + Bz2)1/2 = (Vx2+ Vy2 +Vz2)1/2/S.
The MFS-3A is RoHS compliant.
Features
- Measures Bx, By, Bz
- Suitable for environmental magnetic fields
- Three linear analog outputs Vx, Vy, Vz
- Very high sensitivity
- Wide Frequency response: DC to 100kHz
- Small size, low weight, low power.
Applications
- Quality assurance of magnetized materials and items such as sealing strips and permanent magnets by fast and complete characterization of the external magnetic field.
- Detection/separation of magnetic and non-magnetic materials by monitoring the modification of the local or imposed field caused by magnetic item/items.
- Non-contact, non-invasive and continuous “Condition Monitoring” of electrical motors, generators, transformers or inductors by comparing the amplitudes of selected external or “leakage” field spectral
- components with initial or reference values. Quality assurance of electrical components by leakage field measurement.
- Independent monitoring of the ON/OFF status of large magnets with extended fringing fields. The MFS- 3A output can be used to operate warning indicators and/or interlocks. Resolution of ±30μT readily allows measurement of the 500μT (5G) safety level applicable to Magnetic Resonance Imagers (MRI).
- Wearable, battery operated “Personal Magnetic Field Detector” to immediately generate a warning to the wearer that they have entered a region of increased magnitude magnetic field.
