 Gaussmeters
Lake Shore gaussmeters offer a straightforward and cost effective solution to measure magnetic fields. Hall generators or factory calibrated probes connect to the gaussmeter rear panel and the sensor data is automatically uploaded into the instrument. Lake Shore gaussmeters offer easy-to-make flux density measurements with high accuracy, resolution, and stability, and are available with RS-232C and IEEE interfaces, analog outputs, relays, and alarms.
