TECHNICAL BULLETIN MODEL DM-2220 Digital Magnetometer DM-2220 DM.2220-84 DESCRIPTION ‘The DM.2220 and DM-2220-S4 monaxial, fluxgate magnetometers measure magnetic field intensities within the +2 gauss range and provide easy-to- read, front-panel digital readouts. Designed for use in inspection and production testing, these instru- ments have a +0.01 milligauss resolution on the most sensitive range, making them especially use- ful in determining the residual level and stability of low-field test applications involving magnetic shields, shielded rooms and Helmholtz coil systems. Identical in performance characteristics and specifications, the only difference between the two instruments is that the DM-2220 has an axial sensor and the DM-2220-S4 has a transverse sensor. Meas- urement ranges of 20, 200 and 2000 milligauss are switch selectable. Although simple and easy to operate, these instruments provide the stability and accuracy requried in complex laboratory equipment. ‘The sensing system displays the vector magnetic, field component along the axis of the probe. The relationship between the measured field compo- nent and the total magnetic field is: B measured = (B total) (cos 6) where # is the angle between the total field vector and the sensitive axis of the probe. Since @ can have any value from zero to 180°, the measured field component can be either positive or negative. The front panel display features four large non blink decimal characters, a polarity indicator to show the field direction and a decimal point on the 20 and 200 milligauss ranges. The probe, which uses the patented helical-core sensing element employed so successfully on satellite magneto- meters, can be located up to ten feet from the unit. For remote readout applications, units can be furnished with an optional BCD output for driving a digital printer or a remote digital display. An analog output jack on the rear panel is standard.
