Definition | The Applied Physics Systems Model 1540 is a compact high-speed digital 3-axis fluxgate magnetometer. Magnetic field data transmitted by the 1540 are expressed in units of gauss (G). The 1540 employs 24-bit analog-to-digital converters enabling the measurement of magnetic field magnitudes from +/- 0.65 G down to the system noise level (5 microgauss peak-to peak). The instrument communicates over a bi-directional serial interface using TTL logic levels and RS232 levels but can be optionally configured to communicate with the RS422 protocol. The instrument has applications in fluxgate compass systems, magnetic fuses and measurement of magnetic signatures or fields generated by power lines. The 1540 has a resolution of 0.0001 mG, an accuracy of +/- 0.5% FS, initial offset of <0.005 mG, orthogonality of axes better than +/- 0.2 degrees, linearity of +/- 0.05% FS, and is capable of operating in a temperature range of -25 to 70degC. | ||
