Karl Deutsch Deutrometer 3873 Field Strength Meter

Karl Deutsch Deutrometer 3873 Field Strength Meter

Simple and Convenient with Automatic Measurement of Both Magnetizing Strength and Residual Field Strength

Rugged & User Friendly

The Deutrometer 3873 is a professional instrument that quickly and easily measures magnetic direct and alternating fields in the low frequency range (20 Hz to 500 Hz). It provides simple and convenient field strength measurement and monitoring of limit values. Features an operating mode that recognizes and measures both magnetizing strength and residual field strength immediately one after the other, eliminating the need for switching manually and thus reducing false measurements due to incorrect gauge selections. The simultaneous representation of readings and maximum values as well as the selectable visual and acoustic limit alarm complete the practical qualities of the new gauge.

Applications

  • Measuring the tangential field strength during magnetization
  • Measurement of the residual field after demagnetization
  • Can be used as a flux density meter (tesla meter)

 

 

 

Features

  • Measurement parameters: field strength H or induction B (in air)
  • Measuring units: kA/m, A/cm, mT and Gauss
  • With automatic measuring mode for easy and fast measurements
  • 2 selectable display modes: standard indication, bar graph indication for visual monitoring of limits
  • “True RMS” mean values in AC fields
  • Battery-saving illumination, lettering fluoresces under UV light
  • User friendly menu with clear readings
  • Integrated stand
  • Splash-proof housing (IP 54)
  • Meets the requirements of EN ISO 9934-3:2002 chapter 9.3
  • Suitable for testing tasks according to EN ISO 17638 chapter 5.5.2

 

Operating Modes

  • Measurement of alternating field / direct field (automatic detection)
  • Measurement of alternating field / direct field (automatic detection) with monitoring of limit values
  • Measurement of direct fields (e. g. for residual fields)
