http://www.wuntronic.de e-mail: WUNTRONIC@wuntronic.de Mess-, Steuer- und Regelgeräte GmbH Miniature Fluxgate Magnetometer 3 axis Fluxgate Magnetomer for Fields < ±1 Gauss or ±10 Gauss Model WFG-140 Features:  Complete 3-axis system  Compact size, rugged construction  Low noise level:  Measures fields up to ± 1 Gauss  Operates from ±15 VDC Description: The WFG-140 magnetometer is a complete 3 Axis Fluxgate Magnetometer system packaged in a rectangular package of dimensions 1.5"x1.5"x4.65". With low noise and small size, the instrument can be used wherever small magnetic fields (3 x 10-7 to 1 Gauss) need to be measured. Output from the sensor is 3 analog voltages proportional to the magnetic field in three orthogonal directions. Full scale output is ±10 volts, which represents a magnetic field of ±1 Gauss. The system is simple to set up and operate. An optional temperature sensor can be added to the WFG-140. This sensor is implemented by using an Analog Devices AD592. The temperature output is represented by an analog voltage present on pin A of the system Bendix connector. The temperature output signal is proportional to the absolute temperature; scale factor is 5 mv/°K. At room temperature (20°C or 293°K) the temperature output voltage is 1.465V. The Model WFG-140 is powered from bipolar ±15VDC supplies. Two internal regulators are present in the WFG-140, which produce ±12VDC for internal use. Connection to the 536 is accomplished by means of a 10 pin Bendix connector. For sensor alignment, the X axis is aligned parallel to the package long dimension. The Z axis is aligned with the two through holes in the aluminum connector mounts. The system’s Y axis is orthogonal to the X and Z directions. The output polarity sense of the axes is such that a field increase in the direction of the arrows produces an increase in the voltage output for that axis. In general, the magnetic axis of the Model WFG-140 is orthogonal and aligned to within ±0.2° of the coordinate system specified by the outer package alignment surface and alignment holes.
