1.3 Supported probes
Narda FieldMan 9
Applications and standards
The FieldMan enables precision measurements to ensure the safety of people, espe-
cially in working environments where high electric or magnetic field strengths are
expected. A key task is to demonstrate compliance with general safety regulations such
as FCC, IEEE, ICNIRP or the EMF Directive 2013/35/EU. Examples of measurement
environments are:
• Broadcast transmitters (e.g. IEC 62577)
• Radio base stations (e.g. IEC/EN 62232)
• Induction heating and melting (e.g. EN 50519)
• Household appliances (e.g. IEC/EN 62233)
• Electric welding equipment (e.g. IEC/EN 62822)
• Railroad environment (e.g. EN 50500)
• Vehicle environment (e.g. IEC 62764)
• Power supply systems (e.g. IEC/EN 62110)
• Medical electrical equipment (e.g. IEC/EN 60601)
• TEM cells and absorber chambers for the verification of electromagnetic compatibility
(EMC)
1.3 Supported probes
A variety of isotropic field probes are available for the FieldMan. All of them transmit their
information and measurement data as a digital signal to the FieldMan, either via an elec-
trical USB interface or via an optical COM interface. In this way, interference is almost
completely eliminated compared to high-impedance analog interfaces. The specially
developed screw connectors and electrical contacts are extremely robust a
nd resistant.
The probes are automatically detected after connection to the FieldMan.
The characteristics of the probes are listed in the respective data sheet. The following
probe types are supported:
• Broadband probes with digital interface for FieldMan (P/N 2462/xx)
• Selective probes with digital interface for FieldMan (P/N 2463/xx)
• EHP-50F and EHP-50G field analyzers with optical interface (P/N 2404/xxx)
• HP-01 magnetometer with optical interface (P/N 2405/xxx)
